So you’ve built your funnel. Your product is ready to go. But wait-how do people actually pay you?
This is where many new online marketers hit a wall. Don’t worry. Setting up payment gateways in Systeme.io is easier than you think.
Let me walk you through it.
Why Payment Gateways Matter
Think of payment gateways as the bridge between your customer’s wallet and your bank account. Without them, you can’t collect a single dollar.
Stripe and PayPal are the two most trusted options out there. Most customers already have accounts with one or both. This means fewer abandoned carts and more sales for you.
Plus, Systeme.io works seamlessly with both platforms.
Setting Up Stripe in Systeme.io
Here’s how to get Stripe connected:
1. Log into your Systeme.io dashboard
2. Hover over top right corner and click profile icon
3. Select “Settings” from the dropdown menu
4. Find “Payment Gateways” in the left sidebar
5. Click the “Connect with Stripe” button
6. Log into your Stripe account (or create one if needed)
7. Authorize the connection
That’s it. Stripe is now linked to your account.
One quick note: Make sure your Stripe account is fully verified before connecting. This avoids headaches later.

Should You Use Both?
Absolutely.
Here’s why. Some customers prefer credit cards through Stripe. Others want the security of PayPal. By offering both options, you remove buying barriers.
More payment choices equal more completed purchases. Simple math.
A Few Tips Before You Go Live
Test everything first. Run a small test purchase to make sure money flows correctly.
Check your currency settings. Make sure your payment gateways match the currency you want to sell in.
Keep your accounts in good standing. Both Stripe and PayPal can freeze accounts with suspicious activity. Follow their rules.
