Are you asking how to create a product through API?

oak lynx Sep 7, 2023, 7:09 AM

#

oh no, create a payment for a product

#

but this isn't an online "store" per se, its just micro transactions in our app that need a Product related to it

#

i.e. there is no checkout process, just click a button and the payment is created

#

The PaymentIntent API doesn't accept product ID.

oak lynx Sep 7, 2023, 7:10 AM

#

right, so we need a new way

#

is there a higher level api that interacts with Product to create payments?

hidden gazelle Sep 7, 2023, 7:11 AM

#

No, you need to specify the amount when creating a PaymentIntent

#

https://stripe.com/docs/tax/custom I believe you are following this guide?

Tax API for Sales Tax, GST, and VAT

Learn how to use the Stripe Tax API to calculate sales tax, GST, and VAT in your custom payment flow, and record tax collected for reporting.

#

yes

#

and also need invoice capability, unless we need to generate an invoice manually

hidden gazelle Sep 7, 2023, 7:12 AM

#

Let's do it one by one

oak lynx Sep 7, 2023, 7:12 AM

#

the tax rules for every region in USA have complex rules, seems that product api handle this

hidden gazelle Sep 7, 2023, 7:13 AM

#

No, that's handled by the tax calculations API

#

So which step are you in now?

oak lynx Sep 7, 2023, 7:14 AM

#

we are using calculate tax api

#

this can be used in conjunction with paymentIntent?

#

seems obvious

#

so perhaps this is working as intended

#

how about invoice for paymentIntents, this would be really helpful

hidden gazelle Sep 7, 2023, 7:24 AM

#

I'd suggest you to follow the guide and complete your integration so that you know how to use the result from tax calculation API to create a PaymentIntent

oak lynx Sep 7, 2023, 7:52 AM

#

thanks. we have already implemented this end-to-end

#

I think you gave enough information we can use paymentIntent and still do tax + invoice

hidden gazelle Sep 7, 2023, 7:54 AM

#

For invocing https://stripe.com/docs/tax/invoicing you can enable automatic_tax to let Stripe automatically calculate the tax for you
