When using the Stripe integration in Hoops, the Process Payment button is only enabled when the total amount being charged is $5.00 or greater.
If the payment amount is less than $5.00, the button will remain disabled and the payment cannot be processed through Stripe.
Why is There a Minimum Payment Amount?
Stripe enforces a minimum transaction amount for online payments.
To comply with this requirement, Hoops prevents payments below $5.00 from being processed through the Stripe payment gateway.
This behavior is expected and is not a configuration setting that can be changed within Hoops.
What You'll See
If the invoice or payment total is less than $5.00:
The Process Payment button will remain disabled.
The payment cannot be submitted through Stripe.
Increasing the total to $5.00 or more will enable the button.
This ensures only valid Stripe transactions can be processed.
Common Situations
You may encounter this when:
Charging a very small balance owing.
Creating a low-value invoice.
Requesting payment for a small adjustment or surcharge.
If the outstanding amount is below $5.00, it cannot be processed through Stripe within Hoops.
Alternative Options
If you need to collect an amount less than $5.00, you'll need to use an alternative payment method outside of the Stripe payment integration, or adjust the invoice total so the payment meets Stripe's minimum transaction requirement.
Summary
The Process Payment button is enabled only when the payment total is $5.00 or greater. This minimum is a Stripe requirement and applies to all payments processed through the Hoops Stripe integration.
