You also have the option to set up a one-time charge or a recurring charge with this add-on. The process is described below in detail.

Note: You will need to install and activate the User Registration Pro add-on for Stripe add-on to work since it shares some part of functionality with the Pro add-on.

Installation #

  2. After the successful purchase, you will get the plugin zip file under your WPEverest account page.
