Use this method when you want to connect Stripe without OAuth.

Requirements

  • Use a Stripe restricted key only (rk_...)
  • Do not use secret keys (sk_...)
  • Match mode and key prefix:
    • Test mode -> rk_test_...
    • Live mode -> rk_live_...
  • Required key read scopes:
    • account
    • billing meters
    • customers

Save restricted key

  1. Open Settings > Stripe Account Connection.
  2. Click Change Stripe Connection.
  3. Select Use Stripe restricted key.
  4. Select mode (Test or Live).
  5. Paste the key and click Save Restricted Key.

Remove restricted key

  1. Stay in Use Stripe restricted key.
  2. Select the mode.
  3. Click Remove Restricted Key.
If OAuth credentials are available for that mode, MeterMonitor can switch back to OAuth.

Common validation errors

  • Mode does not match key: selected mode and key/account mode are different.
  • Secret key not allowed: key starts with sk_.
  • Missing permissions: key cannot read account, meters, or customers.
