Integrate Stripe

Stripe is a financial infrastructure platform for businesses. Partnero’s Stripe integration enables you to automatically track customer purchases, attribute sales to your affiliate partners, and manage rewards. 

Partnero is a verified Stripe partner and offers a Partnero app for Stripe, providing enhanced security and features. 

How does the Stripe integration work?

There are two main parts to the integration:

Step 1: Creating a referred customer in Partnero
This is the first step in tracking referrals. A referred customer can be created in Partnero in two ways:

Each Partnero program includes detailed integration guides with ready-to-use code snippets. Choose the method that best matches how your business uses Stripe, and follow the instructions in the corresponding guide.

Step 2: Tracking referred customers' purchases

Once a referred customer is created, the next step is tracking their payments. This is done by connecting your Stripe account to Partnero. You can authorize Stripe through:

After authorization, Partnero will automatically track purchases made by referred customers directly through Stripe.

More detailed instructions for each method are available in the sections below.

Step 1: Creating a referred customer on Partnero

For the first part of the integration, choose the method based on how your business uses Stripe (user sign-up, or payment links), then follow the integration guide.

Stripe via Payment Links

This method allows tracking purchases by referred visitors when the website uses Stripe Payment links , Pricing tables, or Buy button.

Step 2: Authorize Stripe to track sales

Authorizing Stripe under Apps & Integrations allows data about subsequent or recurring purchases made by referred customers to be sent to Partnero.

Important: This step is an addition to the integration methods listed above. Purchase tracking relies on the assumption that the customer has already been created on Partnero via one of the methods listed above.
