if order free why u need use stripe? u can skip that moment and send user order with complete status)

They would not enter a code before they get to stripe. They would reach the checkout page then put the discount into the discount code section

And this would be tracked by stripe

[echo carbon]

You can generate coupon codes for 100% off, which sounds like what you need, right?

[arctic stream]

Yes but I seem to get an error when checkout out, let me show:

[arctic stream]

First here is a "gift card" I made as a 500 fixed amount discount

It says the code is invalid

However if the order is larger than 500:

works perfectly

so clearly its not letting you use the coupon if it brings the order to 0, still need to collect the users shpping info on this page, so cant do this before

@echo carbon

[echo carbon]

Ah, is this for a one-off payment? Not a Checkout Session in subscription mode?

[arctic stream]

Correct its just a one time payment

[echo carbon]

For one-off payments through Checkout you're required to at least be charging for the minimum amount in that currency (so you can't discount it down to $0)

[arctic stream]

Is there any work arounds or solutions to this?

Or if I want to give a user store credit is that not possible

[echo carbon]

There isn't really a way around this if you still plan on using Checkout - you could look into other products (like one-off Invoices which also allow you to specify credit that will automatically be applied to the next invoice)
