Sites on Sontairo Hosting can take payments through Sontairo Finance — no Stripe account setup, no API keys in your site code.

​
Before you start

  1. Set up Sontairo Finance for your workspace and complete onboarding. Payments can only be collected once your Finance account shows Charges enabled.
  2. Make sure your site is published on Hosting.

​
Enable payments on a site

  1. Open your site and go to the Payment tab
  2. Set the provider to Sontairo Finance (the tab shows your Finance connection state and links to the Finance page if onboarding isn’t finished)
  3. Configure what you’re selling:

​
How checkout works

When a visitor starts a purchase, your site asks Sontairo to create a checkout session and the buyer completes payment on a secure Stripe-hosted checkout page. Prices are resolved server-side. The amount, currency, and product come from the payment settings you saved — code running in the visitor’s browser cannot change the price. This means a tampered request can’t buy your product for a cent. Payments land in your workspace’s Finance account (you are the merchant of record) with the standard 2% platform fee. See Sontairo Finance for fees and payouts.

​
Tracking revenue

  • The site’s Site health card shows a Revenue tile with the total collected on that site
  • Every payment appears in the Finance page’s Recent payments list, tagged with the site it came from
  • A payment can also trigger Helm automations via the When a payment is received trigger
