Hi @prakashhinduja,

Just to confirm, are you referring to launching an e-commerce website on HubSpot?

Hi @prakashhinduja ,
Congrats on getting close to your site launch! Adding a payment gateway is a big step, but it’s easier than it sounds. Here’s a simple guide:
1. Selection of payment gateway - For Swiss/international sales, Stripe, PayPal, or Square are great choices; they’re secure, user-friendly, and work with most platforms.

2. Create your account - Sign up with your preferred provider and complete any verification steps (like business details, etc.).

3. Connect it with your website -

  • If using HubSpot:
    Go to Sales → Payments and follow the prompts to link your gateway (e.g., Stripe).
    Or, use tools like FormPay to add payment options (Stripe, PayPal, etc.) to HubSpot forms.
  • For other platforms (WordPress, Shopify, etc.):
    Most gateways offer plugins, install theirs, or check your platform’s app store.

4. Set up products & checkout - Add your products/services in your website’s backend and create payment pages (your gateway or HubSpot’s tools can help).

5. Test before going live - Run a few test transactions to ensure the payment process runs smoothly.

6. Use SSL encryption and follow PCI compliance standards to protect customer data.

7. Offering multiple payment methods like Credit cards, PayPal, etc., can reduce checkout friction and boost sales.
If you’re using HubSpot, their Commerce Hub and payment links can make things even simpler. You can also find helpful payment apps in the HubSpot Marketplace - HubSpot Marketplace
