Hi there, which Stripe API are you using to charge a tip? Is it a question related to Terminal?

#

create a checkout session

#

So you want the customer to specify a tip in the checkout page?

exotic nacelle Oct 18, 2022, 5:33 AM

#

the amount of the tip is pre-calculated and the buyer can pick one of them

#

like 5%, 10%, or 15%

#

The checkout page doesn't have a built-in tipping feature, so the workaround is to include another price with custom_unit_amount (https://stripe.com/docs/api/prices/create#create_price-custom_unit_amount) in the checkout session's line_items.
