Supported payment methods, currencies and businesses for Stripe accounts in India

Stripe accounts in India support Visa, Mastercard, and American Express for domestic international payments, but do not support non-card transactions, Google Pay, Apple Pay, or equated monthly installments. Transactions from the Stripe India account dashboard are also not allowed. Stripe supports business entities in India, including companies, limited liability partnerships, and sole proprietorships, but does not support non-profit entities, non-governmental organizations, or simple partnerships.


For domestic & international payments in India, Stripe supports Visa and Mastercard (including Maestro) as well as American Express (Amex). Do note there are some restrictions applied for processing through AMEX.

We have not supported non-card transactions, and creating transactions from the dashboard is not allowed from the Stripe India account.

Google Pay and Apple Pay unavailable for merchants and customers in India on Stripe Checkout and Stripe Elements.

We currently do not support Google Pay and Apple Pay on Stripe Checkout and Elements for Stripe accounts and customers in India.

This entails that if your IP address is in India, you won’t be able to test a Google Pay or Apple Pay integration for a Stripe account based outside of India and accepting Google Pay or Apple Pay as a payment method.
