AppRanks verdict
Generated from live marketplace data — refreshed daily
Minimal Stripe Wrapper is a newly-listed WordPress app with a limited review volume. It is listed in the Payment category on WordPress Plugin Directory, which AppRanks treats as the canonical taxonomy node for ranking and competitor comparison. no published reviews yet means feature claims are unverified by the wider merchant base. Without a published review base, the only fit-signal available is the developer's own documentation plus the marketplace's listing-quality audit (linked below). Paid-only pricing means evaluating fit on the marketplace listing or via the developer's documentation before installing. AppRanks tracks rating, review count, pricing tier, and category position daily — the figures on this page reflect the most recent scrape from the canonical WordPress Plugin Directory listing.

How it Works You can initiate a Stripe payment with any of these methods:
The Gutenberg block element ‘Minimal Stripe Button’
By using any clickable element of your choice (eg. a <button> or <a>)
By using the shortcode-generated button.
By using an action hook.
By using the shortcode-generated donate-form.
Method 1: A Gutenberg block element Add to your page using the WordPress block editor.
Method 2: Use an existing clickable element Add a css class to any clickable target element.
eg. Use the page builder of your choice (eg. A Divi Button).
class="mswr-stripe-payment"
Then add a filter hook to enter/modify your specific payment details.
For example:
add_filter( 'mswr_pre_stripe_checkout', function( $args ) {
// add payment details $args[ 'amount' ] = $amount; // use the smallest unit of your currency. ie. $123.45 => '12345' $args[ 'currency' ] = 'nzd'; // iso 4217 currency code $args[ 'email' ] = [email protected]; // eg. wp_get_current_user()->user_email; $args[ 'product' ] = 'Your Product/Service name'; // will appear on the Stripe Checkput page $args[ 'user_meta' ] = 'Membership Renewal'; // user-defined tag that can help identify a transaction in the Stripe webhook callback
return $args; });
Method 3: Using a shortcode-generated button This method requires no php code. You can however, optionally add a php hook (as above) to modify the Stripe parameters and to perform extra actions on the Stripe webhook callback.
Example shortcode:
[mswr_stripe_button amount="1234" currency="usd" email="[email protected]" product="Sample Product" quantity="2" success_url="/payment_success" cancelled_url="/payment_cancelled"]
Method 4: WP hook A developer method.
Use PHP from your code to fire a WordPress ‘action’ which initiates a Stripe Checkout session with the specified Stripe arguments
Action hook: mswr_initiate_stripe_payment
Example:
$args = [ 'amount' => '12345' ]; add_action( 'mswr_initiate_stripe_payment', $args );
…
Hooks available in Minimal Stripe Wrapper 1. mswr_initiate_stripe_payment 2. mswr_pre_stripe_checkout 3. mswr_{\$type} 4. mswr_shortcode_html
Method 5: Donate Form Shortcode generated Donate Form where the user can select the amount to pay.
