How to switch to Live Mode?

To accept online payments, you must activate your Payfacile account, ie switch it to Live Mode.




Switching to Live Mode is done in 3 steps:



Connect a payment gateway (Stripe for example).
Choose a Payfacile plan.
Click on the 'Switch to Live Mode' button.


1- Connect a payment gateway



The payment gateway to connect will depend on the payment method you wish to activate:
To activate credit card, you need to connect "Stripe".
To activate the SEPA transfer, you need to connect "GoCarless".

You can connect both "Stripe" and "GoCardless" if you want to activate both credit card payment and SEPA transfer payment.

How to connect Stripe to enable credit card payment?


Go to E-commerce // Settings // Payment Gateway.
Click on the "Add a payment gateway" button.
Choose "Credit Cards ".
Click on "Stripe".
Click on "Connect Stripe " (if you don't have a "Stripe" account click on "Open an account").

How to connect GoCardless to enable SEPA payment?


Go to E-commerce // Settings // Payment Gateway.
Click on the "Add a payment gateway" button.
Choose "Instant transfers ".
Click on "GoCardless".
Click on "Connect GoCardless " (if you don't have a GoCardless account click on "Open an account").


2- Choose a Payfacile plan



Go to the Plan & Billing section then on PLAN.
Choose your plan.
Enter a credit card for the payment of transaction fees charged by Payfacile.

A credit card is always requested. This is for the payment of transaction fees at the end of the period.


3- Switch to Live Mode



Go to the Get Started section
If you have completed the first 3 steps, you can now click on 'Switch to Live Mode'.

Switching to Live Mode may take a few minutes. Be patient.

When switching to Live Mode, all your test orders will be deleted and the numbering of your invoices will restart from zero.
