Create WP user on signup?
Check this box to create a WordPress user on signup from the widget.

Step 2: Optionally Configure Stripe Webhooks

Stripe Webhooks Settings

You can optionally use the Stripe Webhooks handler that comes with this plugin to create WordPress users when a Stripe Customer is created.
Another use case for this is when you are not signing up users with our WordPress Widgets, but users are signed up from another source, such as ClickFunnel pages. You can let those customers user your WordPress site for our customer portal embed to see their subscriptions.
First, you need to configure the Webhook handler in your Stripe dashboard. Go here to configure.
You will need to do this for both Live and Test mode.
  1. 1.
    Click on the Add endpoint button
  2. 2.
    Paste https://your_wp_domain.com/billflow/v1/stripe-hooks into the Endpoint URL input box
  3. 3.
    Select one of the following create events
    1. 1.
      customer.created- allow all of your Stripe customers to be able to have an account on your WordPress site to view their subscriptions.
    2. 2.
      customer.subscription.created - allow only those Stripe customers who signed up for a service that matches your WordPress Billflow Plugin's service setting.
  4. 4.
    Click Add endpoint to save
Please only use one of the create events and not both.
Configure the Webhook handler in Stripe

Other Supported Events
