How to set up Stripe (Stripe Direct Charge) in CTRwow

Please follow the below topics to show you the steps to take in order to connect Stripe (Stripe Direct Charge) in CTRwow.

1. Confirm having the PCI or enable the Process Payment Unsafely option

Check if the client has the PCI on his/her Stripe account:

  • If the Stripe account has PCI: please go to the user’s Stripe Dashboard>Settings (at the top right side of the dashboard page, click on the Settings icon)> scroll down to Business Settings> click on PCI Compliance, and in this section, it can be submitted the PCI Certificate.

  • If the Stripe account doesn’t have the PCI: the client needs to manually enable the option Process Payment Unsafely to enable the unsafe payment option and then create a Stripe Connected account. Go to the next topic for the step-by-step on to create one

    • To enable this feature, go to the user’s Stripe Dashboard>Show Advanced Options>Integrations, and then enable the Process Payment Unsafely option.

**Please note that, as these are requirements and configurations that need to be verified and done inside the Stripe dashboard, we also recommend users to contact directly Stripe, so they can give further details and guide you through it: https://stripe.com/en-mx/contact

  • Mid Code field: You can type the MID name. For instance, StripeDirectCharge@clientname-Main

  • Descriptor field: {0}. This field by default has already a preset value {0}.

    • If the toggle Dynamic Descriptor is set to ON then the Descriptor value cannot be modified.

    • On the other hand, if the Dynamic Descriptor toggle is OFF, the value can be edited with the descriptor of the MID.

  • Dynamic Descriptor toggle: this should be set to ON only if the MID account has a dynamic descriptor, otherwise leave it to OFF.

  • Is Active toggle: this toggle is set to ON by default. By switching to ON or OFF this toggle will activate or deactivate the MID

  • Is Paypal Direct Debit Active toggle: this should be turned ON only if the payment provider is PayPal

  • Is Active (PRN) toggle: this toggle is set to ON by default. Once the MID is saved, these credentials are applied to PRN, unless the option Is PRN Active option is disabled.

  • 3DS Enabled (Secure Mid) field: 3D Secure (3DS) adds an extra layer of protection to online shopping. With 3DS enabled, you have 2-step authentication on every online purchase - so no payments will ever go through unless you authorize them yourself.

  • Is Mid Cap Active toggle: This toggle should be switched to ON when the user’s MID has a maximum monthly limit that it can reach. Therefore:

    • If this toggle is set to ON the user is able to add the MID Cap amount on the Mid Cap - Monthly Amount (USD) field.

    • If the toggle is switched OFF the Mid Cap - Monthly Amount (USD) is blocked.

  • Mid Cap - Monthly Amount (USD) field: If the Is Mid Cap Active toggle is set to ON, in the field Mid Cap. The Monthly Amount (USD) has to be added to the maximum monthly limit that the MID can reach. This should be included ONLY if the MID has a monthly limit allowance.
    ***Please note that for funnels and campaigns that use MIDs with such option enabled, once the MID has reached the monthly limit, it is automatically blocked. For this reason, we generally suggest setting up multiple MIDs on the same campaign.

  • Main Mid Code field: in this field can be selected, if available, the Main MID of the Payment Provider

  • Entity field:
