Why sell with your Stripe (not a marketplace wallet)
When you bring your own Stripe, buyers pay a business you control. Funds, disputes, and customer records live in your Stripe Dashboard. Marketplace platforms often insert themselves as the money path and take a percentage.
PayWallPage’s model: you paste your Stripe keys, publish products, and we take 0% of GMV. Stripe’s processing fees still apply. Optional Pro is a flat SaaS fee — see pricing.
Step-by-step
- Create or log into Stripe — activate payments for your country and business type.
- Claim PayWallPage — sign up and pick paywall.page/you.
- Connect Stripe keys — add the keys from your Stripe account in onboarding / settings so checkouts run on your account.
- Create a paywall — upload a file, paste a private link, or add unlockable text. Set a price.
- Share the URL — profile or product link in email, social, or your link in bio.
What PayWallPage handles vs what Stripe handles

Compared to MoR platforms
Tools like Lemon Squeezy act as merchant of record and charge a platform cut for tax convenience. If you want that tradeoff, use them. If you want your Stripe and 0% platform fee, use PayWallPage.
FAQ
- Do I need Stripe Connect?
- No. Paste your publishable key and a Restricted key (rk_) with Checkout Sessions: Write. Buyers pay your Stripe account directly — no Connect required.
- Who is the merchant of record?
- You are, via your Stripe account. PayWallPage is not MoR for creator product sales.
- Can I sell PDFs this way?
- Yes. Follow how to paywall a PDF.
