For legal requirements, within the checkout we need to change a custom message from below the subscribe button to above it

Gotcha -- yea I don't think that's supported today, but I can share the feedback.
Is there a general public resource that this requirement is tied too, or some private contractual obligation?
cinder walrus
It's because our clientele is susceptible to scams, so government regulations requires a notice before clicking any sort of confirmations - in this case having the button below a message breaks this rule.
I can find the exact legal sources if you need - need to check back with our legal team for it.
I did find this:
https://stripe.com/docs/payments/checkout/customization#add-custom-text
but am not sure how to test/implement it
west rock
Right, that's the only place the submit message can be placed, which looks to already be above the button
You can implement this using custom_test[submit][message]=test when creating the session
Have you already tried this? If so, what is not working?

We're not hosting any code, and are trying to do this through the GUI. Here's where we tested that
Is there a way to update it via an api call (perhaps in postman?) to point to our stripe hosted environments.
west rock
Ah that message is about policies specifically
The "submit message" is separate
How are you creating the checkout sessions?
cinder walrus
We're operating only in the dashboard. No local development. We're not creating a session ourselves.
west rock
Well they have to be created somehow, are you using payment links?
cinder walrus
Yes, we're using payment links:

Gotcha, checking in to whether that setting can be set via payment links.

So it looks like this is settable in the API per payment link https://stripe.com/docs/api/payment_links/payment_links/create#create_payment_link-custom_text-submit-message
But I am not seeing if there is a way to set that when creating a payment link from the dashboard
cinder walrus
SO, we can use Postman, to call this API. We just need our SK_Test--XXX Id and the Id of the payment link
And add the Custom_test (optional Item)
viral trench
Correct, though keep in mind this is a setting per payment link rather than account wide
cinder walrus
That makes sense, since it's id specific
viral trench
So if the API is the only way to do this you will need to create new links that way or update existing ones https://stripe.com/docs/api/payment_links/payment_links/update#update_payment_link-custom_text-submit-message
If you reach out to our support, they may know if this is settable without the API https://support.stripe.com/?contact=true
Unfortunately I am less familiar with the dashboard
cinder walrus
That's fine. I will try this now and will update you shortly! Thank you so much for your help Pompey and Synthrider
