No-code options to accept payments on Stripe
Ahead of a full integration, you can use our quickstart options to get started and accept payments manually. We offer several ways to get started using the Stripe Dashboard that don’t require any code.
Send a payment link
You can create a payment page in the Stripe Dashboard and share a link to it with your customers. Use Payment Links to sell your product or service, start subscriptions, or collect donations by pasting the link in emails, social media, or any other channel.
See the full guide on how to share payment links.
Send a Stripe-hosted invoice
If you’re testing product-market fit or still iterating on your business model or pricing, you can send an invoice to customers from your Dashboard. We’ll email your customer a PDF invoice as well as a link they can use to pay the invoice online with a credit card, debit card, or bank transfer. Hosted invoices can be customized to your brand and supports 135+ currencies and dozens of local payment methods.
See the full guide on how to send an invoice without code.
Basic subscriptions
If you have straightforward plans and pricing, you can create subscriptions directly from the Dashboard, which allows you to charge customers on a set schedule (for example, monthly). When you create subscriptions through the Dashboard, Stripe emails an invoice for each recurring charge that your customers pay with a credit card, debit card, or bank transfer. To learn more about which payment methods are right for your business, see our payment method guide.
You can also use payment links to set up subscriptions without writing any code. When you create a payment link in the Dashboard, select a product that has a recurring price. You can share the link as many times as you want on social media, in emails, or any other channel. After you share the link, you can track payments in the Dashboard.
If you have more complicated plans and pricing, or want to collect your customers’ payment information up front to automatically charge them for their subscription, you’ll need to write code. Use the Billing integration builder to see what an immersive end-to-end integration looks like. Or learn more about designing an integration to understand the decisions you’ll need to make and the resources you’ll need.
Pricing: Subscriptions are a feature of Stripe Billing and incur an additional fee, which is listed on our pricing page.
Sending payouts
For platforms or marketplaces that need to transfer funds to a seller, service provider, or third-party vendor, you can get set up as a platform and pay out funds from your Stripe balance using the Stripe Dashboard. You can also add funds to your account balance (“top up”) and send payouts to your users’ bank accounts without processing payments through Stripe first.
Pricing: We charge fees for active connected accounts and for each payout, as listed under the “Express” column of the Stripe Connect pricing page.

All of these options require manual work every time you need to accept a payment, start a subscription, or send a payout. We recommend that you fully integrate with Stripe to automate your payment flows and set up a scalable integration.

Yes, with a plugin or partner. Stripe has partnered with thousands of popular platforms like Shopify, Squarespace, and Freshbooks so that you can use their services without any code. We also work with almost every e-commerce platform and offer plugins that can help you accept payments with Stripe within your website:
