Flutter Stripe
? flutter_stripe is in beta – please provide feedback (and/or contribute) if you find issues ?️
The Stripe Flutter SDK allows you to build delightful payment experiences in your native Android and iOS apps using Flutter. We provide powerful and customizable UI screens and elements that can be used out-of-the-box to collect your users’ payment details.
Features
Simplified Security: We make it simple for you to collect sensitive data such as credit card numbers and remain PCI compliant. This means the sensitive data is sent directly to Stripe instead of passing through your server. For more information, see our Integration Security Guide.
Apple Pay: We provide a seamless integration with Apple Pay.
Google Pay: The plugin can easily act as payment provider for the Pay plugin that enables you to seamlessly integrate Google Pay or Apple Pay. All you need to do is add your stripe publishable key to the payment profile.
Payment methods: Accepting more payment methods helps your business expand its global reach and improve checkout conversion.
SCA-Ready: The SDK automatically performs native 3D Secure authentication if needed to comply with Strong Customer Authentication regulation in Europe.
Native UI: We provide native screens and elements to securely collect payment details on Android and iOS.
Pre-built payments UI: Learn how to integrate Payment Sheet, the new pre-built payments UI for mobile apps. This pre-built UI lets you accept cards, Apple Pay, and Google Pay out of the box, and includes support for saving & reusing cards.
Recommended usage
If you’re selling digital products or services within your app, (e.g. subscriptions, in-game currencies, game levels, access to premium content, or unlocking a full version), you must use the app store’s in-app purchase APIs. See Apple’s and Google’s guidelines for more information. For all other scenarios you can use this SDK to process payments via Stripe.

base class.
Stripe
offers publishableKey
, stripeAccountId
, threeDSecureParams
and merchantIdentifier
. Only publishableKey
is required.
Dart API
The library offers several methods to handle stripe related actions:
The example app offers examples on how to use these methods.

- Get your test Stripe API keys
cp lib/.env.example.dart lib/.env.dart
and set your Stripe publishable key.cp server/.env.example server/.env
and set the variable values in your newly created.env
file.
- Install the server dependencies:
yarn --cwd "server"
- Start the example
- Terminal 1:
yarn --cwd "server" start
- Terminal 2:
flutter run
- Terminal 1:
Additional steps for webhook forwarding
