Stripe Elements for the web

Use Stripe.js and Elements to build custom payment forms on the web.

Stripe.js is our foundational JavaScript library for building payment flows. The primary integration path through Stripe.js is with Elements, which enables you to collect sensitive payment information using customizable UI components. Stripe.js also provides a single interface for Apple Pay, Google Pay, and the Payment Request API.

With Stripe.js, you can also tokenize sensitive information, integrate with Checkout, and handle 3D Secure authentication. Because all sensitive information is handled by Stripe.js, it features simple PCI compliance with SAQ A reporting.

Stripe Elements

Stripe Elements is a set of prebuilt UI components, like inputs and buttons, for building your checkout flow. It’s available as a feature of Stripe.js. Stripe.js tokenizes the sensitive information within an Element without ever having it touch your server.

Elements includes features like:

Formatting card information automatically as it’s entered
Translating placeholders into your customer’s preferred language
Using responsive design to fit the width of your customer’s screen or mobile device
Customizing the styling to match the look and feel of your checkout flow

The Card Element lets you collect card information all within one Element. It includes a dynamically-updating card brand icon as well as inputs for number, expiry, CVC, and postal code. Get started with accepting a payment.

The Payment Request Button lets your customers check out with Apple Pay, Google Pay, Chrome saved cards, and Microsoft Pay. When using an Apple Pay-enabled browser, your customer will see the button on the left below. When using a browser that supports the Payment Request API, they’ll see the button on the right below. Note that for demonstration purposes, these are just images, not live demos. You can read more about browser support in the Payment Request Button Quickstart.

The IBAN Element lets you collect your customers’ bank account details. It validates IBAN formats in all SEPA countries, emits the bank’s name, and includes a dynamically updating bank logo icon for many popular banks. Refer to the IBAN Element Quickstart to get started.

The iDEAL Bank Element lets you collect your customers’ bank for use with iDEAL payments. It displays a list of iDEAL-member banks and their logos, allowing customers to select their bank inline (rather than in an interstitial bank selection page) and check out faster. Refer to the iDEAL Bank Element Quickstart to get started.

Elements examples

Elements are completely customizable. You can style Elements to match the look and feel of your site, providing a seamless checkout experience for your customers. It’s also possible to style various input states, for example when the Element has focus.

To see some ways you can use Elements, check out our open source examples on GitHub.

For an end-to-end example illustrating how to integrate Elements with a backend to process payments, check out this demo application and browse its source code on GitHub. This sample store accepts card payments with support for Payment Request, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and other payment methods.

Demo application on Chrome with the Payment Request Button

Demo application on iPhone X with Apple Pay on Safari

Using Stripe.js and Elements with React

If you’re looking to use Stripe.js and Elements alongside React, use our open source react-stripe-elements project, available on GitHub. This project is a thin wrapper around Stripe.js and Elements that manages internal state and component lifecycles for you.
