Overview
Accept direct debit, credit card, Apple Pay, and Google Pay payments online and get paid up to twice as fast when using Stripe in Xero. You can also set recurring payments for repeat customers with auto pay* to turn always-late into on-time payers.
Whenever you receive payments via Stripe, whether via a Xero invoice or an eCommerce store, you'll automatically see the transaction data flow into Xero and can reconcile each payment with one click.
*Stripe auto pay is only available on repeat invoice templates with the approved for sending status.
