Stripe

Litestore takes payments through your own Stripe account and records every capture and refund in a ledger the database protects.

Litestore turns checkout on only when you set both the secret key and the webhook secret.
Every capture, refund and dispute writes its own row to the ledger, and the database rejects any change to a row.
Every thirty minutes, a job asks Stripe about payments whose webhook never arrived.
Without Stripe, shoppers can still browse your store and fill a cart, but they can't check out.
