Online payments with Stripe overview

Online payments use Stripe Checkout to collect cards and ACH from sponsors at the moment of purchase. Chamberly uses Stripe Connect, which means your chamber owns the Stripe account and the funds — Chamberly orchestrates the payment and webhooks. Online payments require a Pro or Premier subscription.

• Hosted, PCI-compliant Stripe Checkout for cards and ACH.

• Automatic order status transitions: pending → committed → completed.

• Webhook-driven receipt emails and inventory commits.

• Native refunds, partial refunds, and dispute handling.

• Payouts on Stripe's standard schedule directly to your chamber bank account.

• Confirm subscription tier is Pro or Premier under Settings > Billing.

• Have your chamber's EIN, bank routing/account, and a chamber admin's identity info ready.

• Read the Stripe Connect article for how to connect your account.

1. Sponsor adds items to cart and clicks Checkout.

2. Chamberly creates a Stripe Checkout session and redirects the sponsor.

3. Sponsor enters payment and submits.

4. Stripe captures the payment and fires checkout.session.completed.

5. Chamberly's webhook handler moves the order to committed and triggers receipt emails.

6. When fulfillment is confirmed, status moves to completed.

• Enable both card and ACH for the broadest payment coverage.

• Set chamber payout schedule to weekly for predictable cash flow.

• Review the Stripe dashboard monthly for disputes and risk signals.

Stripe's standard rates apply (typically 2.9% + 30¢ for cards). See your Stripe dashboard for the rates negotiated for your account.
