Stripe
Stripe is Tickera’s most-used payment gateway integration — globally available in most countries, supports 135+ currencies, handles 3D Secure / SCA compliance, integrates cleanly with the rest of Tickera. This guide walks through enabling Stripe in Tickera Settings, entering your API keys, configuring webhooks if needed, and the common test scenarios you should run before launching.
For the official Stripe technical docs, see stripe.com/docs. For pricing per transaction, see stripe.com/pricing.
In order to use Stripe, you’ll need to create a Stripe merchant account for which you can sign up here.
Once you’ve signed up, log in to your Stripe account and from the account menu in the upper-right of the page select Account icon > Developers and click the API Keys panel.
This is where you will find two sets of API keys: Test and Live. Test API keys are used for testing while Live API keys are used for the live/production site.
Now, go back to Tickera>Settings>Payment Gateways, activate Stripe from Payment Gateways list, scroll down and fill in necessary information:

add_filter('stripe_order_description', 'new_stripe_order_description', 10, 3); function new_stripe_order_description($content, $order_id, $buyer_email){ $content = 'New Receipt Description Here'; return $content; } - Secret API Key – paste here Secret API Key from your Stripe account (Sandbox/Test or Live – depending on which mode you have selected)
