Obtain your Stripe account's publishable key and a secret key. These keys are found in the Developers > Api Keys page. Make sure to use the live keys instead of the test keys so that you are actually collecting funds. In the event that you supply test keys to driventoshow but someone uses a real credit card Stripe will send an error stating the incorrect keys are being used.

  1. Log into your stripe account.Look to the upper right and make sure the "Test mode" is NOT orange.  (if so toggle it off).
  2. Click "Developers" (next to "Test mode")
  3. Under the word "Developers" in the left side of the page click "API keys"
    The Secret key may require 2 factor authentication to obtain the key.
    The keys need to have "pk_live_" and "sk_live_" at the beginning.
