How to Set Up Payment Methods in SiteJet

Before your SiteJet store can accept orders, you need to connect a payment method. SiteJet supports several popular payment providers, making it easy to get paid by your customers.

Accessing Payment Settings

1. Open the SiteJet editor from cPanel > Website > SiteJet Builder
2. Go to the Shop or E-commerce settings in the sidebar or top menu
3. Click on Payment or Payment Methods

Supported Payment Providers

SiteJet supports a range of payment providers, including:

• Stripe - Accepts credit and debit cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and more. Widely used and easy to set up.
• PayPal - Lets customers pay with their PayPal balance or linked cards
• Other providers - Additional gateways may be available depending on your region

Connecting Stripe

1. In the Payment settings, click Connect Stripe
2. You'll be redirected to Stripe's website to log in or create an account
3. Follow Stripe's steps to authorize SiteJet to process payments
4. Once connected, return to SiteJet - Stripe will be active in your store

Connecting PayPal

1. In the Payment settings, click Connect PayPal
2. Enter your PayPal email address or connect via PayPal's OAuth flow
3. Save your settings

Setting Your Currency

Make sure you've set the correct currency for your store - Canadian sellers will typically want to select CAD (Canadian Dollar). Look for a Currency setting in your store or payment settings.

Testing Before Going Live

Both Stripe and PayPal offer test/sandbox modes that let you simulate purchases without real money. Use this to verify your checkout flow works correctly before accepting real orders.
