Set up Stripe for your website

If your website takes money — an online store, deposits, bookings or a support plan — you need your own Stripe account. Stripe collects the card payments and sends the money to your bank. The account stays in your name, so you always own your money and your customer records.

1. 1. Create your Stripe account

   Go to stripe.com and sign up using your business email address. Opening an account is free and takes a few minutes.

2. 2. Activate payments

   Stripe will ask for the details it needs to pay you legally.

   • Legal business name and business type (sole trader, LLC, etc.)
   • Business address and tax ID / EIN if you have one
   • A description of what you sell
   • The bank account you want your money paid into
   • A photo ID for the account owner

3. 3. Turn on two-step security

   Stripe requires two-step verification before it will release live payments and payouts. Use an authenticator app or your phone number.

4. 4. Give us the access we need

   Pick whichever you prefer — we only ever need enough to build and test your checkout.

   • Easiest: invite Sales-Support@infinity-creations.store as a team member in Stripe (Settings → Team).
   • Or: send us your publishable key and create a restricted key with write access to Products, Prices, Checkout and Webhooks.
   • Never email anyone your secret key or your Stripe password — not even us.

5. 5. We connect and test it

   We create your products and prices, wire your checkout pages, set up receipts, refunds, webhooks and (where needed) shipping and sales tax. Then we run a real test payment together before you go live.
