How to find your Stripe API keys?

Prerequisites

  • An active Stripe account

  • Admin access to your website

  • Ensure you’re in Live Mode (not Test Mode) for real transactions

Step 1: Access Your Stripe Dashboard

  • Log in to your Stripe account at dashboard.stripe.com

  • Verify you’re viewing the correct account (especially if you have multiple)

Step 2: Locate API Keys Section

Click on Developers in the left sidebar

Select API keys from the dropdown menu

Step 3: Retrieve Your Keys

Publishable key: Used for client-side implementation

Secret key: Used for server-side integration (keep this private!)

Optionally create restricted keys for enhanced security

Step 4: Implement Keys in Your Website

Copy each key carefully (they’re case-sensitive)

Paste into your website’s payment gateway settings

Test transactions in Test Mode before going live

Security Best Practices

Never share your secret key publicly

Rotate keys periodically

Use IP restrictions if available

Monitor API usage regularly
