Page Text: Get WP Simple Pay
Our Story
Back in 2014, we set out with a goal to create a WordPress plugin that let site owners start accepting credit card payments and subscriptions with Stripe as fast as possible.
Since then, our mission has remained the same: Leverage the valuable services and tools Stripe provides while keeping the plugin very lightweight, little to no other dependencies, and as quick to install and configure as possible.
With WP Simple Pay you should be up and running in minutes, not hours. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us .
