Configure Stripe to use the payment provider to handle payments for in-app purchases.
Read time 2 minutesLast updated 16 days ago
This integration uses Stripe Managed Payments as the merchant of record (MoR). As the MoR, Stripe assumes the legal responsibility for processing payments, which includes support with tax compliance, fraud prevention, disputes, and customer support. By leveraging Stripe as the MoR, you can significantly reduce your operational overhead and compliance burden for off-platform transactions. To configure Stripe in the Unity Dashboard, complete the following steps:
- In the Unity Dashboard, go to Development > Products.
- Select In-App Purchases.
- Select Payment Providers.
- In the Payment Provider Configuration section, select Connect.
- Select an Account Type:
- Use Sandbox Account for testing.
- Use Live Account for your live game.
- Select Connect to open a dialog and link your Unity account with your chosen payment provider account via OAuth.
- Set Success Redirect URL (ideally a deep link into your game).
- Set Cancel Redirect URL (optional; ideally a deep link into your game).
- Select Save Configuration.
Important
To connect a Live account with Stripe, you first need to meet the Know Your Customer (KYC) requirements. For more information, refer to Stripe's Identity verification documentation.
Note
If your game ships on multiple platforms, use a small proxy page to deep link to the correct platform for the Success Redirect URL. For more information, refer to the Success URL deep link example.
