#

Right now, it looks like this

#

We would like to see it like this instead by default

ember patio Dec 14, 2022, 1:29 AM

#

I'm afraid expanding current plan by default is not configurable.

Customer portal can only be configured with the properties here: https://stripe.com/docs/customer-management/configure-portal

vale bear Dec 14, 2022, 1:30 AM

#

Also we noticed that this section of the customer portal is not visible when the customer is using Indonesian language

ember patio Dec 14, 2022, 1:33 AM

#

Are they on the same subscription when creating the billing portal?

vale bear Dec 14, 2022, 1:35 AM

#

This issue is reported us to by a different customer. Maybe I will check the specifics first and ask a different question later

#

I have two more questions 🙂

ember patio Dec 14, 2022, 1:36 AM

#

Yup sure! Please go ahead

vale bear Dec 14, 2022, 1:37 AM

#

Is it possible to create a checkout session without requiring the customer to add a payment method?

#

Sorry, not create. Allow the customer to use a checkout session

ember patio Dec 14, 2022, 1:38 AM

#

Could you share the scenario why you need a checkout session without adding a payment method?

vale bear Dec 14, 2022, 1:39 AM

#

We are trying to give a trial period of 7 days to the customer. We would like to give the customer the option to not enter credit card information at first but within the trial period

#

So to do this using a checkout session, the customer should be able to use the session to subscribe but not entering card details

ember patio Dec 14, 2022, 1:41 AM

#

How will you collect payment method later?

vale bear Dec 14, 2022, 1:42 AM

#

We allow the customer to enter their payment information later while using the trial. We use the customer portal and allow them to enter their payment information

#

We also use checkout sessions to get the card information

ember patio Dec 14, 2022, 1:44 AM

#

Great! In this case, you may set payment_method_collection to if_required when creating a Checkout Session: https://stripe.com/docs/api/checkout/sessions/create#create_checkout_session-payment_method_collection

With if_required, Checkout will not collect a payment method when the total due for the session is 0.

Nice ❤️

#

I have one more question to ask

ember patio Dec 14, 2022, 1:45 AM

#

Sure, please go ahead!

vale bear Dec 14, 2022, 1:46 AM

#

In checkout session, when the user changes the quantity, if the value is less than 1, we can see a nice error banner below the quantity text box

#

Can we change this minimum value (which is 1 right now) to a value we define?

#

Like the user can't go below 5 as quantity

ember patio Dec 14, 2022, 1:52 AM

#

Yes, this is possible! The minimum quantity can be set at line_items.adjustable_quantity.minimum: https://stripe.com/docs/api/checkout/sessions/create#create_checkout_session-line_items-adjustable_quantity-minimum

vale bear Dec 14, 2022, 1:52 AM

#

Nice again ❤️

#

Thank you so much

ember patio Dec 14, 2022, 1:53 AM

#

No problem! Happy to help 😄

Going back to my previous question regarding the Indonesian language, check this URL

#

Here, I don't see a "Show Cost Details" button

#

Instead, I see another button which directs me to another screen

ember patio Dec 14, 2022, 1:57 AM

#

Which is "the another button" you're referring to? I can only see Cancel plan button in this page

#

Could you also share the customer portal with "Show Cost Details" button?

vale bear Dec 14, 2022, 1:59 AM

#

Sure

#

I can show it for a different customer

ember patio Dec 14, 2022, 2:00 AM

#

Yup sure!

vale bear Instead, I see another button which directs me to another screen

Since it was Indonesian, I didn't know the text in the button. I guess you were right. It was for canceling the plan

ember patio Dec 14, 2022, 2:07 AM

#

The reason why "Show Cost Details" button doesn't show is not because of the language. It's because "Show Cost Details" will only show when there's tax is included in the price.

For the one without button, its subscription doesn't have tax: https://dashboard.stripe.com/test/subscriptions/sub_1MCdoxC8JGuaUdU6CPdM7Zln

For the one with button, its subscription has tax: https://dashboard.stripe.com/test/subscriptions/sub_1MCzhLC8JGuaUdU6FGDREc2K

vale bear Dec 14, 2022, 2:08 AM

#

Cool, I didn't notice the tax there. Thank you.

#

One has only Cancel Plan while the other has Update Plan and Cancel Plan both

#

Why is that?

ember patio Dec 14, 2022, 2:14 AM

#

In your customer portal settings, it allows updating the subscription plan with plans in SGD: https://dashboard.stripe.com/test/settings/billing/portal

Since the available plans for update is only in SGD and not IDR, no plan in IDR is available to show for updating the subscription plan in customer portal.

vale bear Dec 14, 2022, 2:17 AM

#

Wow, didn't know about this configuration. Thank you so much

#

For the adjustable quantity in checkout session, is there a way we can also set the error message we display to the customer?

ember patio Dec 14, 2022, 2:24 AM

#

Unfortunately, error message is not configurable

vale bear Dec 14, 2022, 2:26 AM

#

No problem, thank you for your help today

#

I have answers to all my questions

#

Have a nice day 🎉

ember patio Dec 14, 2022, 2:27 AM

#

No problem! Have a nice to you as well 😊
