Card payments are the exception, and only if you choose to connect Stripe. In that case the plugin contacts two services: pay.walletup.app – WalletUp’s payment service, operated by us. It creates the Stripe payment intent for each card transaction and applies the platform fee. It receives the transaction amount, currency, order reference and your connected Stripe account id. Terms: https://pay.walletup.app/merchant/terms – Privacy: https://walletup.app/privacy Stripe – processes the card payment and pays out to your bank. Card details are entered directly into Stripe’s own fields and never reach your server or ours. Terms: https://stripe.com/legal – Privacy: https://stripe.com/privacy Neither is contacted until you connect Stripe and a customer pays by card. For privacy questions, contact [email protected].
