- User clicks "Subscribe"
- Stripe Payment Link opens
- User pays
- Stripe sends a webhook to your server
- Your server saves the subscription
You need to create products in Stripe and get Price IDs. Then you can map them in your code. Use Payment Links for simplicity. Configure each link with a mode and success URL.
To keep your database in sync, use webhooks and upsert. This way you can prevent duplicates. Test locally with the Stripe CLI.
When a user cancels, use cancel_at_period_end: true. For guest checkout, provision a user on checkout.session.completed.
Remember to verify everything on the server. Copy the patterns and use dummy keys while learning. Plug in your real values only in private .env files.
