What Card Payments With Stripe Does for Your Program
Families can pay you with a credit card or Apple Pay, just like buying anything online — and the money goes straight into your own bank account.
It's Your Stripe Account
Whelpify connects to a Stripe account you own. Payouts, statements, and disputes are yours — we never hold your money.
Statuses Update Themselves
When a card payment succeeds, the payment request, the offer, and the puppy status all update automatically — receipts included.
Link or create your Stripe account from settings in a few minutes.
Send a deposit or balance request from an offer or the Finances tab.
The buyer pays by card from their portal; everything reconciles automatically.
Failed Payments Handled
If a charge fails, the buyer gets a retry email and you get a dashboard alert, so nothing stalls silently.
What You Can Do With Card Payments With Stripe
Common Questions
Does Whelpify Take a Cut of My Sales?
Your plan is a flat monthly fee. Card payments carry Stripe's standard processing fees, paid to Stripe — Whelpify doesn't add a percentage on top.
Can I Use Stripe and Zelle/Venmo at the Same Time?
Yes — both rails can be on simultaneously, and you choose per request which way to collect.
