# Stripe Configuration

You need to obtain the API key from Strip.  Here is how you do it:

Step 1: Click on   Developers > API keys in your Strip account

Step 2: Obtain the API tokens for your account:

Step 3: Go to Webhooks section

Step 4: Add new Webhook

![](https://4102392624-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-MXPCJcszvw7MAuHjiRr%2F-MY2yKjD5fx13DQFir98%2F-MY2zapJTj2MmGcw5xLw%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=3954b2bf-6490-45da-bca4-24722d313128)

In your Stripe setting, you get to see the webhook URL of your switch.  This Webhook URL is what you need to fill in.  Then, you need to select "charge.succeeded."

Step 5: Activate your key for production

![](https://4102392624-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-MXPCJcszvw7MAuHjiRr%2F-MY2yKjD5fx13DQFir98%2F-MY3-1fBZl1CtK8VPAmZ%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=0da36854-642d-4478-a356-42d0995ccf64)

In stripe, you need to activate your account.  Before you do that, your API account is a test sandbox account.   When your account is still in test mode, you can use the following link to get the test credit card numbers to test your setup. 

```
https://stripe.com/docs/testing    
```

{% hint style="info" %}
When your stripe key is started with "test" keyword, that means this key is a test sandbox key instead of a production key. 
{% endhint %}
