Hi there, how can I help?

#

#

I have a similar request

#

can you elaborate on how to setup myself in my application?

#

Can you tell me more on what you want to achieve?

#

You can start with explaning your idea of "on demand charge"

#

I want to automatically top up the users credits when their credits fall below a certain threshold (predefined by the clients themselves)

#

For example the users will perform certain actions on our system that use their credits, and if their credit fall below the threshold, their credits will get automatically topped up

#

OK, does topping-up the credits involve Stripe payments?

devout egret Sep 6, 2023, 3:57 AM

#

Yes

#

Our current implementation is they will be directed to a stripe checkout and they input their card details and after payment suceeds, their credits are topped up

#

Actually there's a better way without the need of user interaction.

#

https://stripe.com/docs/payments/save-and-reuse?platform=web I'd suggest you to collect and save payment method first, so that you can use the saved payment method to perform an off-session charge.

Set up future payments

Learn how to save payment details and charge your customers later.
