Accept card payments at your captive portal via Stripe

How it works

Stripe connects to Powerlynx via Publishable Key and Secret Key from the Stripe Developer dashboard. Navigate to Config / Finance / Payment Gateways / Stripe in Powerlynx and enter both values. Stripe is available in 46+ countries globally.

Stripe supports credit card, Apple Pay, and Google Pay at the Powerlynx captive portal. Per-location configuration is supported — different Stripe accounts can be linked to different hotspot locations within a single Powerlynx instance, which is useful for reseller deployments where each client’s revenue goes to their own account.
