Complete these setup checks
Confirm the owner and access
Keep the business owner in control. If help is needed, assign a suitable team role with only the necessary permissions; Whop supports preset and custom roles. Whop team permissions.
Describe the real offer
Prepare a clear name, deliverables, price, billing interval, and delivery location. Whop products support one-time, subscription, and free pricing; apps are optional when fulfillment happens elsewhere. Product setup.
Complete owner verification
The owner should follow the current Whop prompts and enter sensitive identity and bank details directly. Whop’s payout setup includes identity checks, bank linking, and ID upload. Payout setup requirements.
Add customer-facing policies
Review your existing terms and refund expectations against the offer. Whop provides document uploads in Settings → Legal and a setting to require terms acceptance. Policy upload settings.
Create the payment entry point
Create the checkout link for the intended product and pricing option. Check the amount, currency, recurring terms, required questions, and post-purchase destination before placing it on your site. Checkout-link options.
Prove delivery and handover
Test the customer journey through payment confirmation and actual access or fulfillment. Document refund handling, cancellations, failed delivery, and who fixes each issue. Save the offer mapping and account handover notes for the owner.
Keep migration decisions explicit
List existing subscribers before changing any payment entry point. Future subscription billing needs its own verified plan; preserve processing history and historical analytics separately. A working new checkout is not evidence that those three items have migrated.
WhopDFY’s payments-account setup is free. Fulfillment connections and custom implementation start from $500, scoped after an audit. Request an audit to separate basic account setup from the work needed around your existing tools.
Common questions
Do I need a new website?
Not for the payment-only approach. Start by checking whether the existing site can link to the intended checkout and whether delivery can remain where it is.
Is free setup the same as free payment processing?
No. Free refers to WhopDFY’s payments-account setup service. Review Whop’s applicable charges and any external tool costs before accepting payments.
Does account creation mean payouts are ready?
No. Check verification, available payout methods, and the current account status. Whop payout guidance.
What should be tested before sending customers?
Check the right offer, correct charge, receipt, delivery, and customer support route. Include cancellation and failure handling wherever the offer depends on recurring access.
Does setup guarantee launch or approval?
No. Account decisions and any additional review stay with Whop. Integration readiness depends on the actual tools and the test results.
