What it does

Selling digital products with Easy Digital Downloads means you need a dependable way to take card payments. This extension connects your store to Stripe so customers can pay by credit or debit card right at checkout. Card details are handled through Stripe's tokenization, which helps keep sensitive payment data off your own server and supports PCI compliance. You can accept payments in multiple currencies, which is helpful if your buyers come from different countries.

Beyond single purchases, the plugin supports subscription products with automated recurring payments. Customers can save their cards for later, and returning buyers can pay with one click using a saved method. When a recurring payment fails, you get notified and the payment can be retried. Transaction logs and reports help you keep track of sales, and the payment forms can be customized to match your brand. It also works with the email management built into Easy Digital Downloads.
