      • How to use the Stripe checkout as a step in my funnel

      In the funnel builder, add the External Checkout step and pick Stripe. It is a checkout page that sells through Stripe: the first time you open the page, the editor already adds the Stripe Checkout block and opens its panel so you can pick the price. Link the Purchase Approved trigger to the next step; sales made there count in the funnel revenue.

      Before you start

      • You need edit access to the funnel.
      • The workspace needs an active Stripe integration with the publishable key and the webhook signing secret. If you don't have one yet, follow Integrate Stripe.

      Step by step

      1. Open the funnel in the builder, in Edit.
      2. Right-click the canvas (or drag a trigger from another step to an empty space) to open Add Step, pick External Checkout and then Stripe.
      3. The step shows up on the canvas with the Purchase Approved and Undefined Trigger triggers.
      4. Hover over the step thumbnail and click Add content. Pick a template, one of your pages or a blank page.
      5. The editor opens with the Stripe Checkout block already on the page and its panel open. Pick the Stripe account and the Price. The rest of the setup is in How to sell through Stripe right on my page.
      6. Publish the page and go back to the funnel.
      7. Link the Purchase Approved trigger to the step the buyer should see after paying (for example, the thank-you page).
      8. Publish the funnel.

      If you delete the block from the page, just click Edit page on the step: the editor adds the block back.

      Which triggers this step has

      The page only moves on when Stripe confirms the payment. That is why the step only offers:

      • Purchase Approved, Upsell Accepted and Downsell Accepted, which fire when Stripe confirms the payment;
      • the page triggers: Page Viewed, Scroll, Time on Page and Exit Intent.

      Boleto, bank debit and other payments that settle later don't fire Purchase Approved on the page. Triggers like Purchase Declined and Cart Abandoned only exist in the ClickMax checkout and show up disabled.

      Differences from the ClickMax checkout step

      • Products: the step has no option to link ClickMax products. What is sold is the price picked in the block.
      • Automations: the triggers of this step only take the buyer to another step; they don't start automations.
      • One-click upsell: a next offer in the funnel is another External Checkout step with Stripe, where the buyer fills in the payment again.

      Where I see the sales

      In the funnel's Analytics Mode, the step card shows Purchases, Revenue and Conversion rate for sales made through Stripe on that page, as soon as Stripe sends the webhook for each purchase. See Which sales count in funnel revenue.

      If it didn't work

      • The editor opened without the Stripe Checkout block: reload the funnel builder and click Edit page on the step again.
      • The buyer paid and the funnel didn't move on: check that the Purchase Approved trigger is linked to the next step and that the funnel was published after the link. Payments that settle later don't move the funnel from the page.
      • The sale doesn't show on the card: check that the Stripe webhook destination has the events from Integrate Stripe and that the page was published after you added the block.
