Connect your Stripe test environment
Enter a restricted test API key and the signing secret for the test webhook below. Values are encrypted on the server and are never displayed after saving. Never enter live keys here.
Required webhook
Stripe must be able to reach this endpoint and deliver a signed test event before checkout becomes available:
A separate webhook receiver is prepared to keep the customer website private. The receiver has been approved for public access. The status above confirms whether a signed Stripe test delivery has verified the connection. Saving credentials does not change either site’s audience.
Required test event types
Test orders & billing enrollment
Paid test orders create billing enrollment records using the customer and subscription already created by Stripe Checkout. Equipment is included only on the first invoice. Service activation and customer email delivery remain separate launch requirements.
Renewal and cancellation simulations use only paid fictional test orders. They advance the Stripe test clock, verify service-only renewal, then cancel at the paid period end and check that later billing stops. They do not activate service.
