Start here
- Open Billing and choose Refresh verified billing status. Hosting and annual software service are separate subscriptions; check which one needs attention.
- Choose Review test invoice, then Open test invoice on Stripe. Keep the invoice link private. If an invoice is unavailable, return to billing or contact support without sharing card details.
- Return to billing after finishing on Stripe and refresh. If a payment remains pending, do not repeatedly pay; check the invoice status or contact support. Renewals, failure recovery and payment-method updates still need end-to-end testing before launch.
What to know
During the private pilot, only the signed-in pilot operator who owns the church can manage test billing. Review test invoice checks the church, subscription and current invoice before offering a private Stripe link. Stripe may let you pay an open test invoice or view a paid receipt. Never enter real card details in the sandbox.
ChapelOS does not collect card details. Opening or returning from Stripe does not prove payment: signed billing events or Refresh verified billing status must confirm the current status. This feature does not enable public sales, activate a production license, change future renewal payment methods, or process refunds.
