Online payments

Take payments on your site without a second subscription.

Online payment functionality is part of the website. We don't charge a separate monthly e-commerce fee — we earn when you earn.

How the money moves

Your website connects the entire sale.

We build the branded buying experience. Stripe verifies your business, securely processes each payment and pays the remainder directly to your bank on its own schedule. We never hold your funds.

Merchant funds

Payment-method availability depends on Stripe and provider approval, business type, location, currency and transaction details. Rocket Websites does not store card details, decide financing approvals or hold merchant funds.

Your Stripe portal

Fees

What you actually pay on a sale.

Our platform transaction fee applies only to payments processed through the website and systems we build for you, and only when a sale actually happens. It is set by your commitment length and never changes for the life of that commitment. Stripe's processing fee is separate and set by Stripe.

Where the fee applies

  • Online sales, deposits and registrations taken through the website we build.
  • Checkout, cart and payment links that run through the systems we set up for you.
  • Charged per sale — there is no separate monthly commerce fee.

Where it does not apply

  • Cash, checks and payments handled in person.
  • Card readers, terminals and point-of-sale systems we did not build.
  • Invoices or payment links you send from another tool or another Stripe account.

About Stripe's rates

We don't publish a fixed Stripe rate, because Stripe's pricing varies by payment method, business type, location and Stripe's own pricing changes. As a common illustration only, if Stripe's applicable rate were 2.9% + 30¢, a 2-year customer would pay roughly 4.65% + 30¢ in total. Check Stripe's current pricing for the rate that applies to you.

Refunds. If you refund a customer, Stripe keeps its processing fee and our platform transaction fee is also non-refundable. The refunded amount comes out of your Stripe balance. We show this clearly again before you connect your Stripe account.

Branded paperwork

Estimates that look like your business, not ours.

Estimates and invoices sent from your site carry your own logo, colors, business name and contact details. Your customer opens it, reads the line items and can pay it right there — by card or wallet, and by Affirm or Afterpay where your business and that purchase qualify.

Estimating and invoicing systems are built to fit how you work, so they are quoted separately from the standard website.
