Payouts are part of COnnect, but yes that sounds right

#

whether you use one-off PaymentIntents vs Subscriptions really depends on your business model and customer relationships

#

Is there part of this you're struggling with?

#

Or just want to bounce the idea around?

#

Kind of both, for confirmation for the general flow and asking for concrete examples if any, and have questions on recurring payments

#

I don't think subscription work at my case, since the payment ammount could be customized before view checking out

#

Subscription is fixed amount with fixed plans

#

I see there's an inline payment methods in Stripe, which could be one time or recurring, and the amount could be determined by the viewers?

violet sentinel
#

Well, what kind of variation is there in your recurring payment?

#

Do you mean there are different amounts for different customers, or different amounts month to month or both?

warm canopy
#

Viewer could enter any amount to support, like $5, $50, $500, $5K, or any abitrary amount. For intervals, it could be one time or recurring monthly, or yearly

violet sentinel
#

Gotcha, but after that custom amount, the recurring amount stays the same?

warm canopy
#

Thanks for the reply in advance, it's a bit confusing, and a lot to digest

#

Yes, unless viewer could update it Stripe Customer Portal, or cancels it, and add it with a new one.

#

This payment model, I see it in Wikipedia and other donations site. But my website is not a non-profit, so I don't know if it's hard to implement

#

AdsBlock also have this payment model to support them

#

So, via the customer portal you'd need to predefine pricing ahead of time, and the concept of a custom amount doesnt really work well there, it would be multiple prices for a single product

#

But when creating subscriptions you can pass dynamic price_date for custom amounts:

#

Note that you must provide a product but you can set your own unit_amount on the fly

#

This will have the effect of creating a price behind the scenes

#

Thank you. I briefly look at the ref. Let me try it out. Do you have some concrete example with this kind of scenario with dynamic price and intervals?

violet sentinel
#

Examples of custom price subscriptions?

warm canopy
#

Yes and with custom intervals

violet sentinel
#

This lets you do say day or month or year of even { interval: 'month', interval_count: 3 } if you wanted to do quarterly

#

ie, invoice every 3 months

warm canopy
#

Okay thank you for the quick help. Let me go try implement it.

NP!
