Hello

Yes you do need a Product/Price first.

You can still do this programmatically

[lyric knoll]

can this also be created programmatically?

[solar dawn]

You can use the API to create Products/Prices

See: https://stripe.com/docs/api/products/create / https://stripe.com/docs/api/prices/create

ah ok, and are these products intended for reuse? or could i create a new one every time given that there arent "products" per se but rather reservations

[solar dawn]

You could also just create a single Product and then create multiple Prices for that Product

Up to you

There is no limit on Products/Prices

So you can re-use or create new ones

ah ok, thanks. But why is it that I can create my own UI and then programmatically create a checkout without specifying products (when not generating a stripe checkout/payment link)?

What i have currently, like when you create a payment intent or setup intent on the server and then return back to the client

you dont have to specify a product

just a price
