This is the best place to start: https://stripe.com/docs/payments/accept-a-payment

my go to would be to use the payment element with a payment intent
but i was wondering if theres a better way for quick tips
ok i will have a read
patent spruce
Sure thing
Also nickdnk has a good point in the main channel
So depends on if you are planning to integrate ios or not
@supple belfry if you want to advise in here

so far we only have a web application but good point to concider for the futuere

Cool, didn't know the policy for thead-hijacking 😄
random wagon
hehe yea, sorry

Apple is really difficult to work with on this. Not only will they force you to use in-app purchases for all digital goods, they will also take 30% of that revenue.

oh wow
well for the start we are only doing website
and for the future in the ios app you could implement apple pay somehow i suppose right?
supple belfry
Cool, but if you ever create an app, you will not be able to link to that website for any purpose, even for other things, as long as you take payments for digital goods on it.
Apple Pay is different; that's a regular card payment and is supported by Stripe. It cannot be used for digital goods in apps.

you have any resources on this that i can read up on by chance?
on app policies for payments i guess

Think of it as: Any product you sell that does not have a physical component; Apple will want 30% and won't approve your app until they get it
So you can sell clothes, PC hardware, yard equipment or whatever with regular credit cards, but "gold coins" in a game, Tinder Gold subscription, tipping a creator or paying for a streaming service (like Netflix) will require 30% if the payment is made within the app.
Also ticketing, such as for a concert, even though a digital good in theory, would be a physical product as the ticket is just a token that grants access to a physical service.
That's the short version

This is why, for instance, that you cannot create an account inside the Netflix iOS app
It just says "come back when you have an account" but will not link to their site
Because that's also not allowed

yea you always hear that apple is very "special" sometimes, ive not had to deal with any of these problems yet since i havent developed on ios so far
gtk for the future tho
supple belfry
For sure
Because you also cannot "ask them if this is ok" - you'll have to build the entire app and send it to review before they reject you
So knowing is half the battle 😄

only experience i had with apple was when i added authentication via apple ID and even there i got my developer account restricted at the day of creation somehow 😄

ye appreciate it will keep it in mind

Good luck!

thank u

Sure thing
I can use google and apple pay in the payment element right? since theyre not showing up in the demo
supple belfry
You can, yes.
The demo will only display them if you actually have them in the browser you are viewing the demo with, as far as I understand

^ is correct
