# Payments

**Stripe payment processing is available to Wavecast OneHub clients to drive revenue from events.**

Combine the power of Wavecast and Stripe to monetise events in a seamless, secure customer journey.

Using Stripe as your payment processor allows you to accept credit card payments in multiple global currencies and from major wallets.

### Why integrate Wavecast and Stripe?

By connecting Stripe payment processing with Wavecast, you can leverage a range of tools including: 

* Sell tickets to events in multiple currencies.
* Support for major wallets, such as Apple Pay, Google Pay and PayPal.
* Coupons to drive earlybird discounts
* Taxation options for easy accounting
