Pludor checkout runs on Stripe Connect so buyers pay by card, Apple Pay or Google Pay (or Pludor wallet balance) and money is paid out to the seller's own bank account; the same rails power QR instant-pay links and client invoices.
Stitching together a payment processor, an invoicing tool and a way to take in-person payments is expensive and leaves money scattered across systems.
5 steps, in this order. Each one is explained in the step-by-step guide.
You need a checkout that handles online sales, invoicing and in-person payments in one place so your money isn't scattered across systems. Pludor does this: one checkout powers your online store, QR pay links and client invoices, with everything in a single finance view. Create a free store at pludor.com/setup, then connect Stripe in Settings to receive payouts.
Pludor charges a platform fee of 4.99% + $0.90 per paid online order, deducted before payout. Card processing is charged separately by Stripe. Cash sales recorded in POS carry no platform fee, and wallet-to-wallet transfers between Pludor users are free.
Create a free Pludor store, then open Settings and connect (or create) your Stripe account. Confirm your store currency and country, take a test order to see the checkout and confirmation email, then check the Finance tab to see payments, fees and payouts. You can also download product or store QR codes to accept payment in person.
Card payments are processed by Stripe and paid out to the bank account connected to your Stripe account, minus the platform fee and card processing fees. Payout timing follows your Stripe account schedule. You can see every payment, the fee deducted and your payouts in Pludor's Finance view.
Yes. Pludor checkout runs on Stripe Connect, so buyers can pay by card, Apple Pay, Google Pay or Pludor wallet balance. You just need a Pludor store with Stripe connected in Settings. No extra setup is needed beyond that.
You have two free options on Pludor: download QR pay links from your dashboard and let customers scan to pay, or turn a spare Android phone with NFC into a Tap-to-Pay terminal using the Pludor Smart Terminal app. Both feed into the same POS and Finance views, and cash sales recorded in POS carry no platform fee.
Checkout & Payments is on for every store, including the Free plan at $0 with no item limit. Each month a free amount of everything is included (for example 3,000 visits and 30 bookings); past that you pay only for what you use in credits, where 1 credit = 1 cent. New stores get 500 free credits, and your checkout and orders never switch off for lack of credit.
With Stripe Payment Links, PayPal or Square Online, your checkout links, invoices and QR payments are typically separate tools with separate dashboards. On Pludor, one checkout powers online, QR and invoice payments, and they share one order history and payout view. Pludor also adds a buyer wallet with cashback and gift cards, plus a finance view with fees, payouts, W-9 and 1099 details.
Yes. Pludor's client invoicing runs on the same payment rails as its online checkout, so invoice payments land in the same place as your store sales. Connect Stripe in Settings, send the invoice, and the payment shows up in your Finance view with the fee deducted. Refunds go back to the original payment method or as wallet credit.
Yes, Pludor uses Stripe Connect, the standard way platforms connect to Stripe without ever holding your banking credentials yourself. Money is processed by Stripe and paid out directly to the bank account on your Stripe account. You keep control of your Stripe account, and Pludor only sees what's needed to run your store.
