Stripe Extended: new payment services for your eCommerce app

The payment stage is often the most sensitive part of the online purchasing process. It's here that hesitations arise and cart abandonments multiply. The reason for this? Every customer has their own habits and preferences, and if their preferred payment method isn't available, they're likely to abandon their purchase.

To maximize sales, it's essential to offer the payment methods best suited to your audience. A checkout aligned with local practices is not a detail, it's a direct conversion lever.

The eCommerce apps created with GoodBarber already integrate a wide choice of payment methods , to meet the most common uses. This offer is regularly enriched, to keep pace with changing habits and enable everyone to adopt the solutions preferred by their customers.

Today, new services complete the existing list and further extend the possibilities.

The integration of these additional payment methods relies on Stripe. The first step is to connect your Stripe account to your GoodBarber eCommerce app, if you haven't already done so. Once this configuration is in place, you need to activate the Stripe Extended extension in the GoodBarber Extension Store. This extension gives you access to all the services offered by Stripe beyond the classic credit card payment.

Services are then activated directly in your Stripe interface. Here, you can select the solutions you wish to offer your customers - whether it's a mobile wallet like WeChat Pay, a local solution like BLIK or TWINT, or a fractional payment service like Alma.

As soon as your choices are saved, they are automatically available in your app's checkout process. Your customers see the new options and can pay for their order using the payment method they're most familiar with.

Thanks to integration with Stripe, your GoodBarber eCommerce app can offer a wide variety of local and international payment services: Alipay, Alma, Amazon Pay, Apple Pay, Bancontact, Billie, BLIK, Cash App Pay, EPS, Google Pay, iDEAL, Klarna, Link, MobilePay, Przelewy24, Revolut Pay, TWINT and WeChat Pay.

These services are complemented by the classic payment methods already available: payment by credit card (via Stripe), payment via PayPal, as well as offline payment (cash, cheque, bank transfer, or any other method managed directly with your customers).

This way, you have a complete set of options , covering global solutions, local preferences and traditional payments, to reduce friction at checkout and maximize your conversions.
