Connect Stripe Revenue to Your Traffic Sources

How to set up

1. 1

   Open Revenue Settings

   Navigate to Dashboard → Settings → Revenue and select Stripe as your payment provider.

2. 2

   Enter your Stripe API key

   Paste your Stripe Secret Key (starts with sk_live_ or sk_test_). DataSaaS uses this to fetch transactions and match them to visitors. Your key is encrypted at rest and never exposed in the browser.

3. 3

   Pass visitor ID in checkout

   Add one line to your Stripe Checkout Session creation to pass the DataSaaS visitor ID. This links every payment to the visitor who made it.

   const session = await stripe.checkout.sessions.create({
     client_reference_id: visitorId, // datasaas_visitor_id cookie
     line_items: [{ price: 'price_xxx', quantity: 1 }],
     mode: 'payment',
     success_url: 'https://yourdomain.com/success',
     cancel_url: 'https://yourdomain.com/cancel',
   });

4. 4

   Verify the connection

   Make a test purchase using Stripe test mode. Within seconds, the transaction should appear in your DataSaaS revenue dashboard attributed to your traffic source.
