New Features
The Gravity Forms official Stripe add-on version 2.6 includes two new methods for collecting payment information:
- Stripe Credit Card Field (Elements)
- Stripe Payment Form (Checkout)
The two new methods for collecting information make the PCI compliance process easier, enhancing security because the credit card field (or the checkout form) are hosted by Stripe during the checkout process.
Upgrade Notes
When upgrading to Stripe v2.6 from a previous version, note that:
- Previously created forms already using Stripe will continue to work and use the standard Gravity Forms Credit Card field.
- Previously created forms already using Stripe will use the standard Gravity Forms Credit Card field even if you have chosen Stripe Payment Form (Stripe Checkout). To use the Stripe Payment Form (Stripe Checkout) Payment Collection Method instead, the Credit Card field will need to be removed from the form.
- Previously created forms already using Stripe will use the standard Gravity Forms Credit Card field even if you have chosen Stripe Credit Card Field (Elements). To use Stripe Credit Card Field (Elements) instead, the Credit Card field will need to be removed from the form and the Stripe Card field added.
