Stripe Elements is an embedded, secure payments form loaded into your Membership Checkout page.
Onsite checkout using the Stripe Elements integration for PMPro can accept credit card payments or payment request buttons (Apple Pay, Google Pay).
We recommend switching to Stripe Checkout if you would like to offer more payment methods, such as bank debits or Stripe Link, or manage tax obligations effortlessly with Stripe Tax.

- Show Billing Address Fields in PMPro Checkout Form: Stripe doesn’t require billing address fields. Choose ‘No’ to hide them on the checkout page. If “No” is selected, make sure you disable address verification in the Stripe dashboard settings.

Note: Some settings are omitted from these docs as they pertain only to sites using the Payment Flow: Accept payments in Stripe (Stripe Checkout).
Enable the Payment Request Button
The Stripe gateway settings include an option to “Show Payment Request Button for On-Site Payments“.
This will allow members to pay using Apple Pay, Google Pay, or Microsoft Pay as an alternative to manually entering their credit card information.
