Stripe Checkout plugin for Joomla Virtuemart.
1. Contents
What is Stripe Checkout?
Stripe allows customers to make online payments by credit card. The mechanism of the Stripe account is similar to a standard bank account, all thanks to the cooperation with banks and financial institutions. When placing an order in the online store and selecting the Stripe payment method, a unique, secure payment page is generated that allows customer to complete the transaction.

Stripe Checkout for Virtuemart allows you to integrate the Stripe Checkout payment gateway with your Joomla VM3-based store. After placing an order in the store, the extension seamlessly redirects the customer to the Stripe gateway where the customer enters his card details. After a positive or canceled payment, the customer is redirected back to the vendor's website.
