How to Manage Stripe Payment Methods in Enrollio

You can now manage your Stripe payment methods entirely within Enrollio — no need to switch back and forth between dashboards! Simplify your payment setup across invoices, enrollment pages, and more while ensuring greater control and flexibility for your childcare business.

What is Stripe Payment Method Management?

Stripe Payment Method Management lets you configure which payment options (like credit cards, digital wallets, bank debits) are available across various Enrollio features, directly inside your Enrollio account. This eliminates the need to manage payment methods separately on Stripe's dashboard, streamlining operations and improving payment setup control.

Key Benefits of Stripe Payment Method Management

Understanding how managing Stripe payment methods directly in Enrollio benefits your business helps you make the most out of this feature.

  • Centralized Control: Manage all your Stripe payment options without leaving Enrollio.
  • Separate Live and Test Modes: Customize payment methods individually for live and test environments.
  • Checkout-Specific Visibility: Only available payment methods will show in each checkout's options.
  • Subscription-Specific Settings: Manage unique payment configurations specifically for recurring tuition payments.
  • Reduced Dependency on Stripe Dashboard: No longer necessary to edit payment methods in Stripe.
  • Seamless User Experience: Streamlined configuration leads to faster setup across invoices, enrollment pages, and forms.

How To Manage Stripe Payment Methods

Effectively setting up your Stripe payment options ensures smooth transactions for tuition, enrollment fees, and other payments. Follow these steps to start managing them directly within Enrollio:

Step 1: Navigate to Payments Settings

  1. Click on the Payments tab from your client account.
  2. Click on Integrations.
  3. Click the Manage button next to your connected Stripe account.

Step 2: Enable/Disable Payment Methods

  1. Click on the Manage Payment Methods option.
  2. You'll see a list of payment methods available for different product areas.
  3. Toggle on or off based on which payment methods you want available for a particular area.

Pro Tip: Consider enabling digital wallet options like Apple Pay and Google Pay for parents. They make checkout faster and more convenient, especially on mobile devices.

Stripe Payment Method Settings for Different Product Areas

Managing Stripe payment methods across product areas ensures that your parent-facing interfaces only show relevant payment options. Here's where your configurations apply:

  • Invoices: For tuition bills, registration fees, and other charges
  • Invoices with AutoPayments: For recurring automatic payments

Each checkout will respect the settings you've configured — no more surprises for parents at checkout!

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the transaction fees for Stripe?

Stripe transaction fees vary depending on your country and the type of payment method used. Generally, Stripe charges a percentage of each transaction plus a fixed fee. Because pricing differs by region, you should always refer to Stripe's official pricing page for the most accurate and up-to-date details.

Why don't I see the Subscriptions list in Enrollio?

The Subscriptions list only becomes available after you've added at least one subscription product in Live Mode within the respective client account. This requirement comes directly from Stripe.

What happens if I already have payment methods configured in Stripe?

Your existing settings are preserved. Default payment methods for product areas or checkouts will match your original Stripe setup unless you update them inside Enrollio.

Will Live and Test modes have separate settings?

Yes! You can configure payment methods independently for Live and Test environments, allowing full flexibility during development and production.

Are these changes applied to all client accounts?

Each client account connected to Stripe needs to configure its payment methods individually under its Payments settings.

The Checkout pages do not show BLIK, even though it is active in Stripe. How can I enable it?

BLIK will not appear in our current integration. Stripe determines which payment methods are shown at runtime based on the connected account's Payment Method Configuration and the checkout context. BLIK is not supported in this flow because it requires immediate payment confirmation at checkout, which is not compatible with our deferred payment flow. We do not have plans to change this setup right now, but we regularly review payment method coverage with Stripe to support current use cases.
