The free plugin includes everything you need to price an order. SubtleForms Pro adds Stripe checkout to collect the payment.
Payment fields
| Field | What it does |
|---|---|
| Product | A single item with a price and an optional quantity |
| Priced Options | Radio, dropdown or checkbox choices that each carry a price |
| Custom Amount | Lets the visitor enter an amount, such as a donation |
| Fixed Fee | Adds a fixed charge, such as a booking fee |
| Order Summary | Shows line items, subtotal, discount, tax and total, updated live |
Tax
Set a tax rate in the form’s payment settings. Tax is calculated on the subtotal after any coupon discount and shown in the Order Summary.
Coupons
Open Subtle Forms > Payments to manage coupons. Each coupon can have:
- A percent or fixed discount.
- A minimum order amount.
- A usage limit.
- Start and end dates.
- A list of forms it applies to, or all forms.
Add a coupon field to the form so visitors can enter a code. The Order Summary updates when the code is accepted, and a clear message explains why a code was refused.
Collecting payment with Pro
With SubtleForms Pro, connect Stripe and visitors can pay by card, Apple Pay or Google Pay. The payment is authorised when the visitor submits, and captured only after the entry has been saved. If saving fails, the authorisation is released, so nobody is charged for an entry you never received.
Without a payment gateway
Payment forms still work without Pro. The order is calculated and stored with the entry, marked as payment pending, so you can take payment offline.
