Noiseyard Help

To connect your Stripe account to receive payments from your Noiseyard website:

1. Go to your Control Panel.

2. Click on Get Paid button. This will open Get Paid settings.

3. Click on the "Connect" button next to Stripe.

4. Enter the required Stripe keys in the text fields below. If you need help finding the keys, these will help:

   • What are Stripe API keys and how to find them : Stripe: Help & Support

   • https://docs.stripe.com/keys#reveal-an-api-secret-key-live-mode

5. Once you entered the required information, click "Connect".

6. If you've entered the correct Secret Key, a modal will appear with the following information:

   • The Secret Key you provided has been verified. However, there isn’t a way to verify the Publishable Key.
     We recommend going to your artist website and going to “Checkout”. If you can successfully reach the checkout page, you are good to go. If you encounter any errors in the checkout page, reconnect your Stripe account by double checking the Publishable Key you provided.

⚠️ Warning: Avoid Connecting Test Keys

Please ensure you are using your LIVE Stripe API keys and not TEST keys!

• DO NOT use keys that start with "sk_test" or "pk_test", as these are for testing purposes only and will prevent real transactions.

• Make sure your account is in Live Mode in your Stripe dashboard before copying your API keys.

Last Step: Confirm that Your Setup is Correct

We recommend running a quick test to make sure your website is running smoothly for your fans:

1. Visit your artist website and add a random product in your cart. **You will not actually buy the product; we are just checking if we can reach the checkout page without any problems.

2. Click on "Checkout" button on the Cart.

3. If you can reach the Checkout page without any errors, your Get Paid method is successfully connected.

4. If you encounter any errors in the checkout page, reconnect your Stripe account by double checking the Publishable Key you provided.

Please note that:

• Noiseyard is PCI compliant. The keys you provide will only be used for the sales and refund requests made from your website and they will not be visible or editable once you save them, for privacy reasons. To connect another Get Paid account, you need to first disconnect the existing one. Refer to this article for guidance on how to disconnect your Get Paid account: How to disconnect my Get Paid account?

• Your Stripe account must NOT be in Test Mode to process real sales.
