What Is GeoDirectory & Invoicing Stripe Payments?
GeoDirectory & Invoicing Stripe Payments is developed by Geo Directory and is a payments plugin for WordPress. It belongs to the payments category on WPExclusive, alongside other tools for ecommerce and monetization. The plugin was originally built as a payment manager for the GeoDirectory ecosystem before being branched into the standalone GetPaid architecture.
It solves the complexity of handling global transactions by integrating Stripe’s robust API directly into your directory or invoicing workflow. This integration is essential for site owners who need to automate listing renewals or sell digital services without redirects.
GeoDirectory & Invoicing Stripe Payments Features
The feature set is built around secure transaction handling and automated subscription management for directory platforms.
Recurring and One-Time Billing
The plugin handles varying payment structures including standard one-off fees for single listings and complex recurring subscriptions. It supports Stripe’s native subscription logic to handle annual renewals for directory members automatically. Users can manage their own payment cycles, reducing administrative overhead for site managers in the directory usecase.
Invoice and Quote Integration
Invoicing Stripe Payments bridges the gap between directory listings and professional invoicing. It allows you to create and send invoices manually from the WordPress dashboard or generate them automatically upon listing submission. The system also supports a free quotes add-on, allowing clients to review pricing before committing to a Stripe-processed payment.
Global Tax and VAT Compliance
Handling international sales is simplified through built-in support for EU VAT and local taxes. The plugin is compatible with VAT MOSS (Mini One Stop Shop) requirements for digital service sales within the European Union. This ensures that every Stripe transaction processed via the plugin remains compliant with regional tax laws.
Pricing
The developer offers this integration as part of a bundle priced at $199 for all products, though individual gateway costs vary. WPExclusive members access it as part of their membership plan.
| Plan | Price | Sites | Includes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Developer Bundle | $199/year | Varies | All Add-ons |
| WPExclusive Membership | From $9.99/month | Unlimited | Invoicing Stripe Payments + full library |
For developers managing multiple sites, a WPExclusive membership covers Invoicing Stripe Payments plus hundreds of other plugins and themes — usually less than one premium license.
