Easy Digital Downloads Stripe Addon

Accept credit cards and alternative payments through Stripe without the additional 2% fee.

Stripe is the premier choice for online credit card processing; it’s also the most popular payment gateway for Easy Digital Downloads – and it’s our preferred option!

The Easy Digital Downloads Stripe Addon allows store owners to accept credit card payments on their WordPress sites. What’s more – this extension is, hands down, the most feature-rich payment gateway integration available for Easy Digital Downloads. If you’re selling digital products on your website, there’s no better choice than Stripe!

Earn more revenue
Our extensive research has shown that Easy Digital Downloads stores using Stripe earn 47% more revenue on average than those using PayPal. Take advantage of powerful features such as subscriptions, on-site checkout, and saved cards to increase your conversions and make more money.

On-site checkout
For any eCommerce site, the checkout page is the most important page on the entire site. Providing a simple, reliable, and fast way for buyers to give you money is critical. With Easy Digital Downloads Stripe Addon, customers are never redirected elsewhere to complete their payment. All purchases are completed securely on your site.

You can also choose to combine the credit card number, expiration, and CVC fields into one or keep them separate.

Using Easy Digital Downloads Stripe Addon also allows you to accept payments via Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Microsoft Pay. These payment methods allow your customers to check out via Touch ID, Face ID, and with payment cards saved to their digital wallets.

Subscriptions
Our experience, and the experience of many other online sellers, has been that acquiring new customers almost always costs significantly more than retaining existing customers. By using Easy Digital Downloads Stripe Addon along with our Recurring Payments extension to offer subscriptions, you can dramatically increase customer retention.

This is extremely powerful for anyone selling licenses for software, services, courses, all access passes, and more. You can configure your products so that customers are charged on a recurring schedule until they cancel. Additionally, you can even offer a free trial before the subscription begins.

With the Easy Digital Downloads Stripe Addon and Recurring Payments extensions working together, there’s no need for customers to manually return and purchase again.

Saved credit cards
Make purchases on your site hassle-free by allowing customers to select previously used cards. Customers can securely save their credit cards through our Easy Digital Downloads Stripe Addon, creating a seamless purchase experience when they return to your store.

Additionally, all customers can add, remove, and modify their saved cards by logging into their account on your site. This makes the purchase process faster and easier, saving customers time and making you more money. And to ensure that customer data remains protected at all times, Stripe securely stores and presents the information, so that no sensitive data is ever stored on your site.

Pre-approve payments
If you need to collect and verify payment information from customers but wish to actually process the charge at a later time, this extension is the solution. Customers can complete a normal checkout process when purchasing your products, then you will be able to manually approve or decline the payments from your dashboard.

Integrated refunds
Refunds are never fun, but at least with Stripe they are easy. Instead of wasting time logging into your Stripe account to return funds to your customers, you can do it all with one click from your site’s dashboard. Edit any payment record, change the status to refunded, and Easy Digital Downloads will do the rest!

Test mode
If your store isn’t working properly, you are losing money. For this reason, testing every aspect of your site, especially any eCommerce functionality, is critical. Fortunately testing with Easy Digital Downloads Stripe Addon is as simple as it gets. Just activate test mode and you’re all set to begin simulating customer actions and troubleshooting issues without it affecting your reports.

Simplified setup
We know how busy you are. You have better things to do with your time than spend it installing, configuring, and testing your eCommerce software. Fortunately, connecting your store to Stripe with this Easy Digital Downloads extension is straightforward and painless. Once the plugin is installed and activated, connecting to Stripe is as simple as clicking the “Connect with Stripe” button in the settings. Once that’s done, you’re ready to start accepting credit card payments!

Pricing
Stripe has a per-transaction charge which varies by country. Discounts for high volume processing are available. See Stripe’s pricing page for more information.

The Easy Digital Downloads Stripe Addon does not charge additional fees beyond your license purchase as long as this extension is installed and activated.

Global support
Stripe is currently available in over 40 countries with more on the way. If Stripe is not yet supported in your country, the Stripe Atlas program is available to help you establish a legal presence in the United States.

Stripe is also able to accept payments in 135+ different currencies and provides support in 27 different languages. 24/7 phone and chat support in English is also available for all Stripe users.

Verified partner
Easy Digital Downloads is a verified member of the Stripe Partner program. This program recognizes software that meets Stripe’s strict quality requirements and provides users of Easy Digital Downloads and Stripe with the confidence they need to trust us both with their payment integrations.

Two Shopping Baskets – Explained

At the top of the page, you’ll see two shopping baskets, each serving a different purpose:

Crypto Cart
- This is the primary payment basket on our website.
- Use it for purchasing memberships or adding funds to your OnlyWordPress account with Crypto & Other methods depending on your location.
- Once your account is topped up, you can use these funds for individual product purchases.
Download Cart
- This basket is exclusively for purchasing individual products.
- The only accepted payment here is your account balance.
- To buy products from this cart, make sure to add funds to your account first using the Crypto Cart. (Your balanace must cover your full basket to checkout)

In short, top up your balance via the Crypto Cart before heading to the Download Cart to finalize individual purchases.

We value our members’ feedback and are actively adapting based on your input as we transition to cryptocurrency across our website.

we offer three payment options for purchasing memberships and topping up your balance using cryptocurrency:

Option 1: Hel.io

Hel.io provides direct top-ups from your crypto wallet, depending on your location. In addition, it supports popular payment methods like credit and debit cards, often facilitated through third-party services such as MoonPay.

Option 2: Web3 (DePay)

DePay offers a seamless, blockchain-powered payment experience, enabling you to use a variety of convertible tokens to make payments directly from your wallet.

Option 3: Manual Crypto Transfer

With this option, you can manually transfer cryptocurrency from your wallet (or via an exchange like Binance or Coinbase). Follow the steps outlined below to send payments using USDC on the Solana blockchain.

FAQ

Why is the currency displayed in £GBP, and how are cryptocurrency top-ups converted into the account balance?

Before transitioning to cryptocurrency, our products were priced in £GBP. To avoid confusion for our existing members, we’ve decided to continue using £ as our primary currency when purchasing individual products. Your account balance is displayed in £, and all top-ups are converted into their £ value.

For example, at the time of writing, £1 is equivalent to $1.24 USD. Since our primary cryptocurrency is USDC on the Solana network (where 1 USDC equals 1.00 USD), this means that for every £1 top-up, 1.24 USDC will be charged.

This approach ensures a seamless experience for all users while maintaining consistency in pricing.

Can I purchase products / membership without using cryptocurrency?

Unfortunately, no. We recently transitioned membership plans to cryptocurrency payments due to rising transaction costs and fraud. This decision helps us maintain high-quality service for all users while keeping costs low. Crypto payments offer secure, end-to-end transactions, providing peace of mind for both parties. Additionally, unlike recurring payments with traditional methods, crypto payments are one-time only, meaning you won't be charged again unless you choose to renew your membership. Rest assured, your membership benefits remain exactly the same. You can still purchase individual products by adding funds to your account balance.

Will my membership be activated immediately after payment?

No, memberships purchased with cryptocurrency are allocated manually. While this process is typically completed within 2 hours, we ask that you allow up to 24 hours after sending your crypto payment for your membership to be activated.

Don’t worry—you won’t lose any time on your membership. The start date will only begin once it’s added to your account.

How Does Topping Up Your Account Balance Work?

Your account balance functions as a digital wallet on our website, providing a convenient and flexible way to shop. You can easily top up your wallet using a variety of cryptocurrencies or by sending USDC directly via the Solana network. Once funded, your balance can be used to purchase any product available on our site.

Key Details:

Minimum Deposit: The minimum top-up amount is £10. (USDC/Crypto Equivalent)
Full Payment Needed: Your account balance must fully cover the cost of your purchase to complete the checkout process. Partial payments combining your account balance and other payment methods are not supported.
Check Your Balance: You can view your current balance at any time while logged into your account, visible on most pages in your account area.
No Expiry: Your account balance does not expire.

Is your cryptocurrency checkout process secure?

Yes, absolutely. Our cryptocurrency checkout is just as secure as traditional payment methods, ensuring your transactions are safe and protected.

What’s the Best Cryptocurrency for Payments?

We recommend using USDC on the Solana network due to its low transaction fees compared to other blockchains. Depending on your country, our payment provider may offer additional cryptocurrency options or payment methods, but we will always receive the exact amount in USDC. Rest assured, we don’t charge any extra fees beyond the crypto cost, which will be clearly displayed at checkout.

Can I Change Plans?

No, you cannot upgrade or downgrade your plan while it is active. Changes can only be made once your current plan expires, so please select the plan that best fits your needs.

Can I Extend My Existing Plan?

Yes! If you're currently subscribed to our Standard, Mega, or All-Access plans, purchasing more time will add additional months to your existing membership. Some of our members already have plans extending 5+ years—that's true dedication!

Can I make a manual cryptocurrency transfer instead of using hel.io or DePay?

Yes, you can! We understand that some users prefer standard transfers. We accept USDC on the Solana network for manual payments. Simply select the "Manual Crypto Payment" option at checkout, and you’ll be provided with a wallet address for the transfer.

Please note:

The wallet address may vary with each transaction, so ensure you send USDC to the specific address provided during checkout.
This process is the same whether you’re sending funds directly or through an exchange.

Let us know if you need further assistance!

Can I purchase individual products using cryptocurrency?

Yes, you can! We’ve introduced a balance system to make crypto payments simple and flexible. You can top up your OnlyWordPress account with as little as £10 GBP (in USDC equivalent).

Here’s how it works:

Once your account is topped up, your balance never expires.

You can use your balance to purchase any individual product without a membership plan.

When you purchase a product, you’ll receive lifetime updates for that product without needing a membership. Simply access your purchase history to download the latest updates anytime.

It’s a straightforward and hassle-free way to shop for the products you need!

I Don’t Have a Crypto Wallet—What Should I Do?

You can create a wallet with a reputable wallet provider and purchase cryptocurrency yourself—we encourage you to do your own research. Alternatively, you can create an embedded wallet during checkout using our payment partner, Hel.io.

Are Crypto Payments Instant?

Typically, cryptocurrency payments are designed to be faster than traditional banking systems. However, several factors can affect the time it takes to receive cryptocurrency payments. These factors include the Blockchain network, network congestion, transaction fees, and wallet settings. It is crucial to consider these factors. Once we receive your payment, we will promptly apply the top-up to your account, allowing you to use it immediately.

I have sent payment but my account balance/membership has not been updated.

Rest assured, as long as you have made the payment to the correct address provided during checkout, your purchase will be credited to your account. In the event that more than 24 hours have elapsed without your purchase being applied, kindly open a support ticket and include your receipt code. This will assist us in locating your payment promptly.

What are the benefits of using account balance for payment?

By accepting cryptocurrency payments, we have managed to streamline our operations and reduce overhead costs. As a result, we are thrilled to offer a generous discount on all higher top ups For instance, if you top up your account with £100 and your purchase total comes to £95, providing you with even more value.

What are the minimum deposit and balance requirements?

The minimum deposit required is £10 (average product price is under £10) Please be aware that when using your account balance for payment, it must be sufficient to cover the entire order amount. Partial payments using the account balance are not possible. Hence, it is crucial to ensure that you top up your account with the correct amount.

Is it possible for me to withdraw or obtain a refund for the balance in my account?

Unfortunately, we cannot facilitate refunds or withdrawals for funds that have been deposited. Deposits made to your account balance are intended solely for utilization within our platform and do not possess an expiration date. You retain the freedom to add funds whenever you desire, ensuring their availability for future payments.

Can I stay anonymous?

Absolutely! We’re all about welcoming everyone—whether you’re Barry, Tim, or someone entirely mysterious. With cryptocurrency, staying anonymous is a breeze. We don’t fact-check the information you provide, so if you introduce yourself as Tim but are actually Barry, that’s perfectly fine by us. We will refer to you by your given name.

You don’t need to share any identifying information.

As long as you know your login details and don’t abuse our service, For the extra privacy-conscious, you can even send payments directly to our crypto wallet, keeping things completely anonymous.

Of course, whether you choose to share your real name or stick with your alter ego, rest assured that we never share your data with anyone. So, nice to meet you, Tim—or Barry—or whoever you want to be today! 🕶️

When purchasing crypto on an exchange, you might be asked to provide some KYC (Know Your Customer) information. However, please rest assured that this information is never shared with us. One of the key benefits of using cryptocurrency is the privacy it offers, so your personal details remain secure when sending payments.

What if I have another question?
