How to create a Thank you page

Introduction

A Thank you page is payment confirmation page displayed after payment.

In this tutorial, we’ll show you how to create a Thank you page.

Configuring a Thank you page in 3 easy steps

We recommend going through the following steps:

1. Gather your requirements
2. Create a page or post
3. Configure your form

1. Gather your requirements

Let’s ask a few questions to create the right kind of Thank you page:

• Should the form redirect to a page or post, or to an external URL after payment?
• Should the Thank you page be customized with data collected on the form?

2. Create a page or post

Start creating your page

Skip this step if your Thank you page is external (it’s on another website).

Add a page on the “Pages / Add New” page in WP admin:

• Use [fullstripe_thankyou_success] and [/fullstripe_thankyou_success] shortcodes to enclose the content displayed after a successful payment.
• Use [fullstripe_thankyou_default] and [/fullstripe_thankyou_default] shortcodes to display a message when the Thank you page is called directly, without a payment.

3. Configure your form

You can turn on redirecting to a thank you page on the “General” tab of forms, in the “Behavior / After successful payment” section.
