How to Create a Landing Page with Payment Gateway (Step-by-Step) 

A landing page with a payment gateway lets visitors pay you directly on the page without being redirected to a separate checkout. This simple setup reduces cart abandonment and speeds up the buying process.

In WordPress, you can easily create a payment gateway landing page using tools like SeedProd or WP Simple Pay. Both options let you add Stripe, PayPal, or other payment methods so customers can complete their purchase in seconds.

In this guide, I’ll show you exactly how to build a landing page with payment gateway integration, step by step. You’ll learn what tools you need, how to set them up, and how to optimize your page so more visitors convert into paying customers.

Step to create a landing page with payment gateway:

Why Create a Payment Gateway Landing Page?

When customers can pay directly on your landing page, checkout is faster, drop-offs are lower, and sales go up.

Sending people to a separate checkout page gives them extra time to hesitate or abandon the purchase. By placing the payment option right on your landing page, you remove that friction and make it easy for them to buy in the moment.

You can also boost conversions by offering multiple payment methods, such as credit cards, PayPal, or digital wallets. Research from Ottu shows that businesses offering more choices see up to a 30% increase in sales.

Now that you know why a payment gateway matters, let’s look at the tools you need to set it up.

What You Need to Accept Payments on a Landing Page

To accept payments on your page, you need a payment processor like Stripe or PayPal, an SSL certificate, and basic security compliance — most tools handle this for you.

• A Payment Processor: Think of services like Stripe, PayPal, or Square as secure payment processors. They handle all the technical details of accepting different payment methods (like credit cards).
• SSL Certificate: This is like a digital lock for your page. It scrambles any information customers share while being sent so it can’t be stolen.
• PCI Compliance: This means following a set of rules to protect customer credit card information. It sounds complicated, but your payment service will help you figure out what you need to do.

Steps to Create a Landing Page with Payment Gateway

First, I’ll show you how to create a landing page and add payment integration with SeedProd. Essentially, it’s a simple way to create a Stripe landing page.

SeedProd is one of the best website and landing page builders for WordPress. It lets you create any part of your web design without writing code.

In the past, I’ve used SeedProd to build landing pages like:

• High-converting sales pages
• Complete WooCommerce websites with checkout pages, product pages, and more.
• Custom headers, footers, sidebars, and templates

I even made a full website design with its theme builder (you can see how I did it in this guide on creating a custom WordPress theme).

Adding features to your site is easy with its customizable templates, WordPress blocks, and sections.

For instance, you can embed social media follow and share buttons to raise brand awareness and get more followers. Or you can use lead-generating elements like optin-forms, countdown timers, and call-to-action buttons to grow your list and boost sales.

One of the elements I’ll use in this method is SeedProd’s Payment Button block, which has payment gateway integration. It lets you start accepting online payments using the Stripe payment processor. It’s quick and easy to set up and requires zero coding.

So follow the steps below to create a payment gateway page with Stripe.

Step 1. Install and Activate SeedProd Landing Page Builder

The first step is to go to the SeedProd pricing page and choose a plan. For this guide, I’ll be using SeedProd Pro for its advanced features, but you can use the Stripe Payment Button on any plan, including the unlimited free trial of SeedProd.

After picking a plan, log into your SeedProd account and download the plugin file. You can also copy your license key on the same page if you’re using the premium version.

Now go to your WordPress website and upload the SeedProd plugin. If you need help, follow this guide on installing and activating a WordPress plugin.

Once you’ve done that, navigate to the SeedProd » Settings page and paste your license key.

Now go ahead and click the Verify Key button to store your license settings.

Step 2. Choose a Landing Page Template

The next step is to select a template design for your page. To do that, you can go to SeedProd » Landing Pages and click on the Add New Landing Page button.

On the following screen, you’ll see a library of professionally designed landing page templates.

You can click any of the filters at the top to narrow down your search. For example, clicking the Sales filter will only show the sales page designs.

When you’ve found a design you like, click the checkmark icon.

After, a popup will open asking you to enter your page name and URL. Don’t worry if you can’t think of a good name; I’ll show you how to edit it later.

Now go ahead and click on the Save and Start Editing the Page button.

Step 3. Add a Stripe or PayPal Payment Gateway Button

On the next screen, you’ll see a layout similar to the example below:

On the left are WordPress blocks and sections you can add to your landing page design. Then, on the right is a live preview where you can preview the changes you make in real-time.

You can customize any part of your payment gateway landing page by clicking anywhere on the live preview. For example, clicking the headline lets you type directly on the design to change the content.

A settings panel will also open on the left, where you can access advanced settings for customizing your fonts, colors, spacing, HTML, and more.

As you can see in this example, you can also edit sections to change the background image easily. Simply click an element and customize it to look exactly like you want.

Adding an online payment gateway to your page is just as easy. Simply search for the Payment Button WordPress block and drag it onto your page.

After doing that, the block settings will open, where you can click the Connect with Stripe button to set up a merchant account and link it.

You’ll automatically head to the Stripe login screen, where you can enter your verification code, but you’ll go straight back to your landing page design once the connection is complete.

Once you’ve authorized the Stripe connection, you can customize the payment button settings.

For instance, you can edit the following settings:

• Payment amount
• Payment description
• Payment currency
• Success URL

The Success URL is the page you’d like to redirect shoppers to after they complete their purchase. For example, you can create a thank you page with SeedProd and redirect customers to that page when they check out successfully.

In addition to the above settings, you can customize the button text, sub-text, alignment for mobile and desktop, and button size, and even add Font Awesome icons.

Need more customization options? Simply click the Advanced tab to find button style, color, font, spacing, margin settings, and more.

With payments set up, you can continue customizing your page until you’re happy with how the design looks.

Remember to hit the Save button in the top-right corner to save your changes.

Step 4. Configure Your Settings

I mentioned earlier that you can change your page settings before publishing your page. To do that, click the Page Settings button at the top of the page builder screen.

In the General settings, you can edit your page name and URL, publish your page and show your SeedProd affiliate link.

If you have a WordPress SEO plugin like All in One SEO installed, you can click the SEO tab to enter your search engine optimization settings. 

Some other settings you can access include the following:

• Track the performance of your page with MonsterInsights, a powerful Google Analytics plugin for WordPress.
• Add custom scripts to your web page header, body, and footer for tracking and retargeting.
• Give your page a custom domain name separate from your website (Elite plans only).

You can also click the Connect tab at the top of the page to link your page to your email marketing service, Google Analytics, spam protection, and Zapier.

Step 5. Publish Your Payment Gateway Landing Page

When you’re ready to make your page live, click the Save button and select the Publish option.

Now, when visitors click your payment button, they’ll be able to check out using Stripe.

At this point, you’ve created a complete online payment landing page that’s ready to start converting visitors into paying customers.

Alternative: Add a Stripe Button with WP Simple Pay

If you already have a landing page and just need a payment button, this is the fastest option. You won’t get full design control, but it’s simple to set up.

WP Simple Pay is a lightweight WordPress plugin that adds Stripe-powered payment buttons or forms to any page. Unlike SeedProd, it doesn’t build the full landing page layout, but it’s ideal if you only need to drop in a quick checkout option.

Here’s how it works in practice:

• Install and activate WP Simple Pay.
• Run the setup wizard to connect your site with Stripe.
• Create a Payment Button form, set your price, and choose one-time or recurring payments.
• Select the payment methods you want to accept (credit card, debit, wallets, etc.).
• Add the button to your page with the WP Simple Pay block or shortcode.

That’s all it takes. You’ll have a working payment button on your page in minutes. If you want the full walkthrough, check out WP Simple Pay’s step-by-step guide here.
