Overview
Collecting payments for event fees, application fees, and deposits is easy in Element451. We partner with several leading payment providers to offer modern, safe, and secure payment options.
Preferred Payment Providers:
New payment integrations should be selected from one of Element451's current Preferred Payment providers. These options provide the best and most secure payment options, as the Credit Card details are not passed through or stored in any Element451 system.
Stripe
Element451 Payments Powered by Stripe
This is a standalone payment solution powered by Stripe. We can quickly get you up and running on Element451 Payments, and you don't even need an existing Stripe account. You can configure Element451 Payments via Settings > Integrations > Payment and select Stripe.
Stripe Connect
If you already have a Stripe Connect account, you can configure Element451 to work with your existing account using a webhook. Learn more below:

How To: Configure Stripe Payments Webhook
To complete the Element451 integration with your own Stripe account and see payment statuses reflected on the Element451 dashboard, you need to configure a webhook on your Stripe account to share Payment status information with Element.
Login into your Stripe instance dashboard. On the right-hand side at the top, make sure that “Test mode” is off:
On the search box above, type “webhooks” and click on the “Developers > Webhooks” option.
Click on the button “+ Add endpoint” on the right.
Fill and save the form as follows:
Add an Endpoint
Endpoint URL: https://api.451.io/clients/integrations/stripe/webhook
Description: Listen Payment Status changes.
Listen to: Events on your account
Version: (2020-08-27)
Select events to listen to:
payment_intent.cancel
payment_intent.payment_failed
payment_intent.succeeded
Once submitted, you will see the screen below. For new transactions, the payment status will now be reflected accurately in Element451.

Flywire Embed
The Flywire Embedded Experience allows Element451 to make secure payments via Flywire without ever leaving the Element451 site. We'll connect Element451 to your existing Flywire account.

Touchnet TLink offers the best and most secure Touchnet experience for Element451. We'll connect Element451 to your existing TLink account.
Legacy Payment Providers
Element451 continues to provide support for the following payment integrations for partners with existing configurations. Newly established integrations should use one of our Preferred Payment Providers listed above.
Some legacy providers require Element451 to collect and pass payment information from our infrastructure to the payment gateway. We are no longer actively developing around these providers, and newer payment features may not support payments processed by them.

CashNet
Flywire (non-embedded)
Touchnet TPGWC
Connecting to other Payment Providers
Outside of these providers, additional configuration or integration work may need to be scoped and completed at an additional cost.
