# Connect Your Stripe Account to Hubflo

Once connected, clients can pay invoices, save their payment methods, and set up auto-pay

With the **Stripe integration**, you can accept online payments directly through Hubflo. Send one-time or recurring invoices, let clients pay securely by card, turn on auto-charge, and allow clients to manage their saved payment methods—all from your branded client portal.

To start accepting payments via Stripe:

1.  Go to **Settings** ⚙ (located on the menu to the bottom left) **→ Integrations**
    
2.  Find the **Stripe** integration and click **Activate**

3.  You’ll be asked to either:
    
    -   Create a new Stripe account, or
        
    -   Log into an existing Stripe account
        

## Let Clients Pay Invoices via Stripe

Once Stripe is connected, you can send invoices that your clients can pay online.

1.  Go to **Billing** **→** **Invoices** to create a **one-time** or **recurring invoice**
    
2.  In the **Payment** section, make sure "Use Stripe as payment method" is toggled on (this is on by default)

When the invoice is issued, your clients:

-   Receive a link to pay the invoice securely via Stripe
    
-   Can access the invoice directly from their Client Portal
    
-   Can save a payment method for future use

## Turn on Auto Charge for Clients

-   For **recurring invoices**, auto-charge is **turned on by default**
    
-   If the client has a **saved payment method**, they’ll be charged automatically
    
-   If they don’t, the first invoice will include a prompt for them to save one
    

**Important**: Auto-charge for **one-time invoices** only works if the client has already saved a payment method.

## **How Clients Can Update Their Payment Method**

Clients can update their saved payment methods at any time:

1.  Go to the **Billing** section in their **Client Portal**
    
2.  Click on **Payment Method**

3.  They’ll be redirected to a **secure Stripe-hosted page** where they can update or remove their payment details
    

## Billing Section Visibility in the Client Portal

Here’s how the **Billing section** appears (or stays hidden) based on your setup:

-   **As a Hubflo internal user (you):** You won’t see the Billing section in the client portal preview.
    
-   **On the client’s side:** The Billing section stays hidden until you’ve issued at least **one invoice or proposal**. By default, only the recipient of the invoice or proposal will see the Billing section.
    
    -   If you want all contacts within the client’s company to access the Billing section, you can turn on that option in your settings. To do so, head to **Settings → Visibility & behaviour**:​
