Stripe sales and profit beside your ads
Tera Ads connects to Stripe with a restricted key that can only read payments: it can’t charge, refund or move money. Successful payments, subscription renewals included, become your sales in your business’s own currency and on its own calendar day, with refunds taken off. It works for a business that sells only through Stripe, and new payments arrive every 30 minutes beside your Meta and Google Ads spend.
Connect Stripe
- Sign up free at teraads.co. No card is needed.
- In Stripe, open Developers, then API keys, and create a restricted key named Tera Ads with Charges and Balance set to Read.
- Paste the key, which starts with rk_live_, under Connect your store in Tera Ads, or in Settings, then Connections.
What Stripe brings
Payments as sales
Every successful payment and subscription renewal, in your business’s own currency.
Refunds
Taken off, so a refunded payment doesn’t count as profit.
Every currency
A payment in another currency counts at what actually reached your Stripe balance.
Questions
- Can Tera Ads charge or refund my customers?
- No. The restricted key can only read payments and your balance. Tera Ads refuses a secret key, so it never holds one that can move money.
- I sell on Shopify and take payments with Stripe. Should I connect both?
- Connect your store. Its orders already include those payments, so Tera Ads reads sales from the store and never adds Stripe on top, which would count each sale twice.
