    Hi, On my site I only sell Digital products so the requirement for street name and address is not needed.

    However when customers use afterpay they are required to provide street name and postcode,

    Is there workaround to this? Like not require customers to fill out street name and postcode

    Hi @eventaus

    so the requirement for street name and address is not needed.

    The billing street and postcode is needed by Stripe because they use that information internally as part of their fraud detection.

    Stripe’s API also enforces the existence of a shipping address, so what the plugin does is for digital products, it uses the billing address in place of the shipping address. That is another reason the street name and postcode is required.

    These are requirements enforced by Stripe and not something that’s specific to this plugin.

    Kind Regards

    Thank you, is there a away to set a default address and postcode so that it will be send to stripe and the fields won’t be required in checkout

    Hi @eventaus

    Yes, that is possible but I really don’t recommend you do that since the billing address should be specific to the buyer. This could increase the number of declined payments on your site.

    Kind Regards,
