Setup guide

1

Create a Stripe account

If you don’t already have one, sign up for a Stripe account.

2

Get your OAuth Client ID

Go to Stripe Connect OAuth settings.

  • Enable OAuth for Stripe Dashboard accounts
  • Add a Redirect URI: https://api.nango.dev/oauth/callback
  • Copy your Client ID — you’ll need it for configuring the integration with Nango.
3

Get your Client Secret

Navigate to the Stripe API Keys page to retrieve your Secret key. This acts as your Client Secret for the integration.

Note: Remember to switch to your live secret key in production.
