Thank you...
The Foundation department receives donations for scholarships and other university items. They would like to have a place on our website where we can take donation payments on the page rather than how we have been doing it which was driving traffic to another site to take payments. They have the account all set up and now theyve asked me to add the stripe payment processor (form?) on our site. Im assuming that its similar to using an iFrame?
If you want to embed this in your own page, I'd recommend you start reading through this guide. It explain step by step how to do this:
https://stripe.com/docs/payments/accept-a-payment?platform=web&ui=elements#set-up-stripe
I'll note there are other options requiring less code, such as using Checkout (perhaps with a Payment Link) but this may not suit your needs depending on how you collect those donations
Do you plan on supporting recurring payments, or one-time only?
Possibly recurring, and the other thing is we need it to be able to accept payments where the users enters the amount rather than selecting from prechosen amounts. I only code HTML/CSS fluently and I know a little JavaScript/PHP but not enough to code it comfortably. Do you know of any guides that will allow me to do this with my skillset? The link you sent looks much more in depth than my skill set will allow.
catching up here onesec
@river root a colleague built a "tiny demo" on this recently that you can refer to: https://stripe-tinydemos-checkout-donations.glitch.me/
A tinydemo to show how to collect a variable amount with Checkout
but overall depending on your comfort level, you might want to go PaymentLinks which are hardcoded to certain amounts rather than fully custom amounts
Where can I can a guide from start to finish for the least amount of code integration?
