Stripe Integration Cost FAQ
What's the cheapest way to add Stripe to my site?+
Stripe Payment Links — we can have a buy button on your site within 1–2 days for £500–£1,000. No backend needed, Stripe hosts the checkout page.
Why does custom checkout cost more than Stripe Checkout?+
Stripe Checkout is hosted by Stripe — we just configure it. Custom Elements means building the UI, handling Payment Intents, managing 3-D Secure, and testing edge cases. More control, more work.
Do you charge hourly or per project?+
Per project — the prices above are fixed ranges based on scope. You know the cost upfront. No hourly billing surprises.
Is there ongoing cost after integration?+
Only Stripe's processing fees (1.5% + 20p for UK cards). We include 30 days of post-launch support. After that, optional retainer or ad-hoc support.
