myCred Stripe

Description

When a community needs to sell digital credits with online payment, the Stripe addon connects the myCred buyCRED flow to the Stripe checkout and records the purchase of points within the user’s balance. The extension serves member sites, internal marketplaces, and gamified platforms that use points as operational currency and need to reduce manual steps in converting payment to credit.

Key Features

• Stripe Gateway
  Adds Stripe as a payment option in the buyCRED flow.
• Point Purchase
  Converts approved payments into credits added to the user’s balance.
• buyCRED Integration
  Operates within myCred’s credit purchase component.
• Automated Flow
  Reduces manual balance updates after payment confirmation.
• WordPress Configuration
  Centralizes gateway settings in the site’s admin environment.

Benefits of Stripe

• Direct Credit Sales
  Users buy points without relying on external manual processing.
• Greater Operational Control
  Administrators track payments and credits within the myCred ecosystem.
• Smoother Experience
  Online payment shortens the path between purchase and point usage.

Who Is Recommended For?

• Sites using myCred to sell points, credits, or internal balance.
• Communities, member areas, and gamified platforms with their own economy.
• Administrators who need to add Stripe to the buyCRED purchase flow.

Stripe functions as an additional component to monetize point-based systems without redirecting users to parallel control processes. By integrating payment and credit into the same myCred flow, the addon helps keep operations more predictable, especially on sites that rely on internal balance to unlock actions, rewards, purchases or participation in community resources.
