regal magnet Oct 26, 2022, 9:30 AM

#

Okay

grand wigeon Oct 26, 2022, 9:30 AM

#

the reqId you shared returns 200 status

regal magnet Oct 26, 2022, 9:30 AM

#

wait a min pls

grand wigeon Oct 26, 2022, 9:30 AM

#

I think this one instead:
req_O08j525QQ9tKHb

#

do you confirm ?

regal magnet Oct 26, 2022, 9:35 AM

#

Please check this one

#

req_NJ8dl5dfK7RdoL

#

Its 200 status in log. But it shows like this

#

#

FYI I am using the indian test card

grand wigeon Oct 26, 2022, 9:37 AM

#

Yes the related error requestId is this one:
https://dashboard.stripe.com/test/logs/req_90q74ULwENZNUV

#

The issue is that you are using an indian Card for an INR transaction (as the billing address is a US)

#

Did you tried to set India as billing address ?

regal magnet Oct 26, 2022, 9:39 AM

#

No. Its not the issue. I am using Indian card for USD transaction. It works for all other countries except India.

#

Did you tried to set India as billing address ?
=> Yes that time I get a different error

grand wigeon Oct 26, 2022, 9:40 AM

What was the error ?

regal magnet Oct 26, 2022, 9:40 AM

#

Non-INR transactions in India should have shipping/billing address outside India. More info here: https://stripe.com/docs/india-exports

Accept International Payments from India

When buyers of your goods or services are located outside India

#

#

As per this error, it should work if I give US address right?

grand wigeon Oct 26, 2022, 9:44 AM

#

regal magnet As per this error, it should work if I give US address right?

Yes but using non Indian Cards

#

You can't use Indian Cards for international shipping address

regal magnet Oct 26, 2022, 9:46 AM

#

So how do I make this available for indian customers?

#

Please see if it helps

#

regal magnet So how do I make this available for indian customers?

Please give me couple of minutes in order to check something

regal magnet Oct 26, 2022, 9:49 AM

#

Sure

grand wigeon Oct 26, 2022, 9:56 AM

#

I see that the Price (price_1LRxu3SGtKVHB2p0dcQ91mSm) is configured only for USD, you probably need to add Indian rupee currency for it so that in the Checkout Session will display it

#

In other worlds, you need to present local currencies to the customer, you can refer to this guide:
https://stripe.com/docs/payments/checkout/present-local-currencies

#

You can test this later by using customer_email: 'test+location_IN@example.com' in order to simulate the Checkout Session Display in India

Or you can use that beta feature you shared above 👆by registering your account using the form

regal magnet Oct 26, 2022, 10:01 AM

#

I signed up for the beta feature already few days back. Got this message -> Signed up successfully!
Thank you! We'll be in touch soon.

#

How to use the beta feature now?

#

Basically we dont want to create separate price IDs. Thats our requirement

grand wigeon Oct 26, 2022, 10:04 AM

#

regal magnet Basically we dont want to create separate price IDs. Thats our requirement

You won't create a new priceId, for the same price object you'll add more currency options:
https://stripe.com/docs/api/prices/create#create_price-currency_options

grand wigeon Oct 26, 2022, 10:04 AM

#

The support will come back to you soon yeap!

regal magnet Oct 26, 2022, 10:08 AM

#

#

I dont see an option to add more currency options in the daashboard

grand wigeon Oct 26, 2022, 10:11 AM

#

In dashboard you have this option when creating new Price,

#

You can update existing Price Id using the API:
https://stripe.com/docs/api/prices/update#update_price-currency_options

regal magnet Oct 26, 2022, 10:14 AM

#

It has to be done programatically?

#

I cant edit it in the dashboard?

#

Also, will it automatically convert the USD amount to INR for indian cards?

#

I mean based on the conversion rate of the day.

#

hi.there?

grand wigeon Oct 26, 2022, 10:24 AM

#

Sorry for my late reply

grand wigeon Oct 26, 2022, 10:24 AM

#

regal magnet It has to be done programatically?

yes

grand wigeon Oct 26, 2022, 10:25 AM

#

regal magnet I cant edit it in the dashboard?

AFAIK, no you need to use API in order to add more currencies for an existing price

regal magnet Oct 26, 2022, 10:25 AM

#

When I add a new currency option in INR, do I have to mention the unit amount?

grand wigeon Oct 26, 2022, 10:26 AM

#

regal magnet I mean based on the conversion rate of the day.

No, when using currency_options you set a fixed rate, if you need an automatic conversion then you need to be registred for the beta (as you did earlier)

regal magnet Oct 26, 2022, 10:26 AM

#

So no other way to get the automatic conversion as of now?

grand wigeon Oct 26, 2022, 10:27 AM

#

Nope

regal magnet Oct 26, 2022, 10:27 AM

#

In my website I want to show the subscription price in USD. when he reaches the stripe page, it should be shown in INR (based on the particular day's conversion rate)

#

Would you please cross check it once? Because I have seen applications that accepts Indian cards for payment in USD. eg: Laracasts.com

viscid spear Oct 26, 2022, 10:34 AM

#

Hi! I'm taking over this thread.

regal magnet Oct 26, 2022, 10:34 AM

#

sure

viscid spear Oct 26, 2022, 10:35 AM

#

Hi! I'm taking over this thread.
So you want to dynamically convert the USD price into INR, and then create a Checkout Session with INR?

regal magnet Oct 26, 2022, 10:35 AM

#

Exactly

viscid spear Oct 26, 2022, 10:36 AM

#

When you create a Checkout Session, you can either pass a price ID, or dynamically set the price in ine_items.price_data https://stripe.com/docs/api/checkout/sessions/create#create_checkout_session-line_items-price_data
So you could compute on your end the conversion between USD and INR, and then create the Checkout Session in INR with the correct amount.

regal magnet Oct 26, 2022, 10:37 AM

#

Will it work with subscriptions?

viscid spear Oct 26, 2022, 10:38 AM

#

Yes

regal magnet Oct 26, 2022, 10:40 AM

#

Just imagine my product is 50USD. today a user subscribes it for 4104 INR as per today's conversion rate. When the subscription renews automatically after 30 days, I dont want stripe to debit the same amount of 4104 from the user. It should be the INR corresponding to 50USD on that day.

#

WIll it work automatically with the solution you mentioned above?

viscid spear Oct 26, 2022, 10:47 AM

#

No, once you set the amount for the subscription, it will be the same for recurring payments.

#

But changing the price of the subscription evert month doesn't look like a good idea for customers.

#

I think you should set the INR amount yourself once, maybe above the current exchange rate, and then keep it the same for all days and all customers.

regal magnet Oct 26, 2022, 10:49 AM

#

Basically I want to deduct 50 dollars every month. I am converting it into INR since its an exceptional case for india

#

Any work around to achieve it without converting to INR?

viscid spear Oct 26, 2022, 10:55 AM

#

My suggestion would be:

convert $50 in INR, that about 4,102 today
then round up that number to take into account that the exchange rate might change, so maybe 4,500 (that's completely up to you)
and create all new subscriptions for 4,500 INR and that amount doesn't change.

regal magnet Oct 26, 2022, 10:57 AM

#

I got your point. But is there any way to deduct 50 dollars every month? Because the subscription is 50usd per month and we dontwant to change it for indian customers.

viscid spear Oct 26, 2022, 10:59 AM

#

But is there any way to deduct 50 dollars every month?
Well as mentioned in the error message you had before: "Non-INR transactions in India require a card issued outside India". So you can directly charge $50 per month only if the card is issued outside of India.

regal magnet Oct 26, 2022, 11:00 AM

#

Yes that's possible. I am talking about the special case where user uses Indian card

viscid spear Oct 26, 2022, 11:01 AM

#

I am talking about the special case where user uses Indian card
Then you have to use the INR currency.

regal magnet Oct 26, 2022, 11:01 AM

#

Okay

#

I have subscribed for Automatically convert currencies (Beta) Any idea when I can start using it?

viscid spear Oct 26, 2022, 11:06 AM

#

No idea unfortunately. You can try to ask support for more information about this: https://support.stripe.com/contact

regal magnet Oct 26, 2022, 11:07 AM

#

Okay. Thanks.

#

One final question. If I want any help on this in future, any option to continue this chat? I think this thread gets archived in some time

viscid spear Oct 26, 2022, 11:11 AM

#

Yes we archive threads after some time of inactivity. But feel free to start a new thread if this one is closed.

regal magnet Oct 26, 2022, 11:12 AM
