Hi, what do you mean by signing in process
alpine tiger
sorry, my mistake. Actually sign up process.
In our app, the user need to be sign up, and we create the stripe customer id and subscribe a plan in the backend.
pseudo sparrow
Yeah that sounds good so far
alpine tiger
We want to replace the process with Stripe pricing table.
But I am still confused how to implement it.

For example, if Stripe uses this prcing table, if I as a customer subscribe for a plan, how can Stripe track me?
And after completing the subscription process, how can I log in Stripe for using your services?
I haven't completed the sign up process, right? No username, no password with the pricing table.

Sorry your question is a bit confusing. Let's say there is a customer A
There could be 2 path: Customer see your Pricing Table before signing up, or after signing up
Either way, after they complete the Subscription process via Pricing Table, you will receive webhook event, which you can use to sign your customer up in your system

Yes, let's imagine Stripe.com using the pricing table to allow the customer to subscribe for some plans.
If the customer see the Pricing table before signing up, there is a chance they can create a new subscription every time.
After receiving the webhook, the only relevant field to create a user in our system is the email address. Or we will need to send a sign up link to the customer via email and asking them for completing the signing up process.
pseudo sparrow
That's... entirely up to you. Yes that works, or you can completely hide the Pricing Table before signup
But yes if you display Pricing Table to un-signed in customer, there is chance you will have guest subscriptions
alpine tiger
Yes, the second solution is that I can ask the user to sign up first, then using the user_id as client_reference_id
The user still has to enter the email address in Stripe pricing table.
After subscribing for a plan, I can redirect the user to the dashboard in my app.
Now the user has subscribed for a plan, the pricing table should be hidden, right?
Where can I get the component to Update plan or cancel plan?
Or how can the authenticated user change their subscription plan?
pseudo sparrow
Hiding or showing the pricing table is up to you, on the embeded code AFAICT
If you want your customer to change plan, you can present them the Customer Portal
with the option to change plan
