💳 See Every Payment Without Leaving WordPress
The Transactions page lists every one-time payment your site has taken, with the date, the customer, the form they used, the amount, and the status. Filter by status with live counts, narrow the list to a single payment form, switch between live and test payments, search by customer email, and export what you are looking at to a spreadsheet.
Click any payment to see the full amount breakdown (including tax, shipping, and discounts), the payment method used, a link to the receipt, and everything the customer entered into your form.
Recurring payments get their own Subscriptions page, with the same search, filters, and status counts, plus a Next Renewal column that tells you when each subscription bills again. Subscriptions you already have in Stripe are imported in the background, so the page fills itself in.
