In order to use the Stripe payment processor, you will need to input your Stripe API credentials into Soapbox Engage account. You can find your Stripe API credentials by logging into your Stripe account and going to Developers > API Keys, and noting your Publishable Key and Secret Key. Alternatively, you can follow the instructions for finding your API Keys directly from Stripe's support article.
How you enter these credentials in Soapbox is determined by the version of the Soapbox administrator your site has.
