Products: Payments

Payment methods and fees for product checkout.

Overview

  • Product checkout uses the site-level payment methods and fees, with Products-specific toggles for disabling methods or fees that should not apply to product orders.
  • This tab does not create payment methods from scratch. It decides which existing payment methods and fees are available to product checkout.
  • Payment choices affect cart totals, Stripe checkout, bank-transfer instructions, order emails, and how orders are stored for staff review.

Fields

Inherit from site

One on/off setting

Uses the site payment setup as the base configuration for product checkout.

Affects

  • Product checkout payment options and fee calculations.
  • Order records, order emails, Stripe checkout, and bank-transfer or custom payment instructions.

Keep product checkout aligned with the global payment setup unless products need different rules from events, bookings, or other sales flows.

Disabled methods

Optional; multiple methods can be disabled

Turns off selected global payment methods for product checkout while leaving them available elsewhere on the site.

Affects

  • Product checkout payment method list.
  • Stripe, bank transfer, cash on delivery, and custom payment flows when configured globally.

Disable a method when it does not make sense for product orders, such as cash on delivery for digital products or bank transfer for low-value instant checkout.

Disabled fees

Optional; multiple fees can be disabled

Turns off selected global fees for product checkout while leaving them available for other sales flows.

Affects

  • Cart totals, checkout summaries, Stripe fee line items, and order records.
  • Delivery, tax, card-fee, fixed-fee, or discount rules that are configured globally.

Use this when a fee belongs to another workflow. Delivery fees are also skipped automatically for carts where every item is marked no delivery.

Payment methods

Multiple site-level methods

The global payment methods Products can inherit: cash on delivery, bank transfer, custom instructions, and Stripe when connected.

Affects

  • Product checkout, order emails, order status pages, and payment-specific customer instructions.
  • Stripe checkout sessions when Stripe is enabled for product checkout.

Configure these once in the sales/payment area, then use this Products tab to remove methods that do not belong to product checkout.

Fees

Multiple site-level fees

Reusable fees and adjustments that can apply during checkout, such as tax, fixed fees, card fees, discounts, or delivery charges.

Affects

  • Cart totals, checkout summaries, Stripe line items, order records, order status pages, and customer/merchant emails.

Keep fee names customer-readable because they can appear in checkout and emails. Use rules carefully so charges match the promise on product pages.

Image uploads are available locally first. They are moved to the CDN when the site is published or synced, and published pages use optimized image sizes for display.
