How to collect payments using Doodle + Stripe

Currently, Stripe can be integrated with Booking Page and 1:1. Doodle's Booking Page is a web-based appointment booking tool. With Booking Page, you:

  1. Set the rules that define your availability

  2. Share your unique Booking Page link

  3. Book your event participants quickly, easily - and collect payment before the appointment is confirmed.

Doodle 1:1 is your person-to-person scheduling solution that puts you in full control of the exact dates and times you are available. With 1:1, you:

  1. Enter the basic 1:1 details, like the name of the event and location

  2. Propose dates and times for the event

  3. Share the 1:1 to begin collecting enrollment

When your participants open your Doodle + Stripe booking page or 1:1 link, they will:

  1. Select a date and time to meet

  2. Provide their name and email

  3. Provide payment via Stripe

Only when someone completes these three steps will they receive a confirmation that they have successfully booked a time to meet with you. The GIF below shows an example of what your participants will experience when they book a meeting with you:
