Stripe Integration

Stripe is a secure payment gateway that allows your clients to pay for bookings and invoices directly through the JungleChief Portal.

Phase 1: Connect Your Stripe Account

• In JungleChief, click your Profile (top right corner) and select Administration.
• Navigate to Company Details and Integrations.
• Locate the Stripe box and click Activate.
• You will be redirected to the Stripe website:
  • Existing Users: Log in with your credentials.
  • New Users: Follow the prompts to create an account. Ensure you have your business registration and tax information ready.

Once completed, you will be automatically returned to JungleChief.

Phase 2: Configure Payment Settings

After connecting, a Settings button will appear in the Stripe Integration box. Click it to configure the following:

1. Mandatory Payment on Booking

Toggle the modules (e.g. Boarding, Daycare) where you want to require upfront payment for bookings taken from the portal. This will in affect in-app bookings.

• Enabled: Clients must pay the full amount via the Portal before their booking request can be submitted.
• Disabled: Clients can submit bookings without paying immediately, though they can still pay via the Portal or an invoice link later.

2. Gateway Card Processing Fees

Decide how the Stripe transaction fees should be handled:

• On-Charged: The processing fee (approx. 3%) is added to the owner’s total. The client covers the cost of the transaction.
• Absorbed: The processing fee is deducted from your total revenue. Your company covers the cost of the transaction.

Ensure you click Save Changes at the bottom of the settings window to push your configurations live.
