Is there a way to set up a timer so Checkout session will automatically expire?
I am looking for a list of countries where I will be collecting tax during Checkout session.
Can you explain how those are connected?
You can set an expiry for a session, the minimum is 30 minutes: https://stripe.com/docs/api/checkout/sessions/create#create_checkout_session-expires_at
Or you may expire manually: https://stripe.com/docs/api/checkout/sessions/expire
There is no "timer" for this though
I am looking for a list of countries where I will be collecting tax during Checkout session.
Can you explain that question a bit more? Is that different from our list of supported countries that synthrider sent you above?
Stripe supports about 120 countries. Are all of those counties are supported for Tax collection as well?
Note that we are not using Stripe tax.
How are you adding tax here? A third party integration?
Stripe Tax supports the countries listed in the doc that we send. If you are using something else to calculate tax, you'll need to refer to their docs to see what countries they can calculate tax for
We are creating tax objects for different countries. So it is important that I know which countries are suppored by Stripe to collect taxes.
Can you send me the doc you are referring to for this? As far as I know Stripe Tax is the only product that uses those tax objects
That is using Stripe Tax, so it is only supported by the countries listed in that Stripe Tax doc
But I can also create "Fixed Tax Rate" for the countries that are NOT in the list (see above link)
Ah my apologies, I do see how that doc differentiates between Stripe Tax and Tax Rates. I think for fixed tax rates you should be able to provide any country that we support Checkout in.
Definitely make sure to test the countries that you are interested in in test mode but I am not seeing documented restricitons on what countries you can define fixed tax rates for
There is a list of countries, and I lost the link.
Will you please explain for the use case, where customer payment is failed during hosted Checkout session and now the question is where customer is directed to as there is no url mentioned in this kind of use case. Thank you?
If the payment fails, the user will stay on the Checkout Session page and the page will ask them to input new payment method details to try the payment again
So they'll stay on that page until they either close the tab, hit the back button, or hit the cancel arrow in the upper left of the Checkout page in which case they will be sent to the URL that you provided as the cancel_url when creating the session
