This doesn't seems like Stripe Express Checkout

You shoul dbe seeing something like this

and not

[proper wren]

we have disabled Pay with Link and PayPal

are u able to see any logs in the browser on clicking the Apple Pay button?

[spiral aspen]

No

Every thing is good on my side

[hybrid leaf]

We can talk here.

Let me catch up

[subtle bane]

Okay

[hybrid leaf]

Is it possible to cancel my pro subscription so I try signing up again?

[subtle bane]

Did you try using Apple pay?

Or test cards?

And I can provide you with another set of creds, where you can try it out

Give me a sec

[hybrid leaf]

I used card this time. I want to check with apple pay now. Thanks

[subtle bane]

Understood.
Please try logging in again with this cred:
email: [e-mail]
password: @fricanM00se

You can click on a paper, and select the "need more words" option, where youll be prompted to use Apple Pay

[hybrid leaf]

Ok, it's stuck at processing too.

It might be that you're missing the confirm step: https://stripe.com/docs/elements/express-checkout-element/accept-a-payment#submit-the-payment

[subtle bane]

Before confirming the payment, we are trying to create a paymentInent. Even this is not being created.

This is the code snippet that we are trying out

We are using React.js

[hybrid leaf]

I see this error in the console:

[subtle bane]

Im also wondering if there are any additional configurations to be done to enable Apple Pay. So far, we have added the apple-developer-merchant-id-domain-association file as specified in the stripe doc.

[hybrid leaf]

Are you following this guide? https://stripe.com/docs/elements/express-checkout-element/accept-a-payment

Why do you use createPaymentMethod?

[subtle bane]

ohh. That is really helpful. Let us try with that. Do you see any other errors.

[subtle bane]

That would be to get the payment method id, which is what we use to create a paymentIntent

[hybrid leaf]

Apple Pay is fine, otherwise it wouldn't show up. But I would recommend to follow the guide closely to fix your integration.

[subtle bane]

Yes

[hybrid leaf]

That's not the recommended way, and not what the guide suggests to do.

[subtle bane]

The guide suggests an optional section where we create a PaymentMethod. We use this approach for Cards. In the section "Create a PaymentIntent" in the guide, the payment intent creation, has no reference on the Payment method used, which was confusing. That's why we went ahead to create the payment intent with the payment method id as parameter as well

[hybrid leaf]

Do you have any specific need to create a Payment Method prior to creating a PaymentIntent?

[subtle bane]

post("/create-intent", (request, response) -> {
PaymentIntentCreateParams params =
PaymentIntentCreateParams
.builder()
.setAmount(1099L)
.setCurrency("usd")
// In the latest version of the API, specifying the automatic_payment_methods parameter is optional because Stripe enables its functionality by default.
.setAutomaticPaymentMethods(
PaymentIntentCreateParams.AutomaticPaymentMethods.builder().setEnabled(true).build()
)
.build();

  PaymentIntent paymentIntent = PaymentIntent.create(params);

This is the code snippet in the guide that we referred. Here in the payment intent create params, there is no mention of a payment method

[subtle bane]

We are using ChargeBee to handle our subscriptions, and we send a subscription request to chargeBee with the Payment Intent we create using Stripe. The capture is done after this.

[hybrid leaf]

If you follow the guide you will see that you don't need to create and send the Payment Method to the backend.

[subtle bane]

Since we are not specifying a payment method, we were confused as to how Stripe will identify that the payment is done via apple pay.

[hybrid leaf]

If you need to be notified when the payment was processed successfully, it's best to listen to webhook events: https://stripe.com/docs/webhooks

[hybrid leaf]

You will use the created client_secret to confirm the payment on the frontend: https://stripe.com/docs/elements/express-checkout-element/accept-a-payment#submit-the-payment

There you provide the elements instance that will determine that Apple Pay was used, you don't need to worry about it.

[subtle bane]

Got it. But since we have the requirement to confirm the payment via Stripe, through a middleware called ChargeBee, we are required to pass the created PaymentIntent to Chargebee APIs.
We could be wrong about this implementation. We will try out the method provided in the guide, and see if there is any way to integrate ChargeBee.

Thank you for your guidance, its much appreciated.

Also, just confirming, the error you mentioned was the only error you could find in the browser right? Was there any logs before or after that?

[hybrid leaf]

You can listen to payment_intent.succeeded event and get the PI ID from there to send to ChargeBee. However, I don't know how ChargeBee works so I can't advice further. I would also suggest looking at Stripe Billing to handle subscriptions: https://stripe.com/docs/recurring-payments

[hybrid leaf]

Nothing else.

[subtle bane]

The payment intent status is in succeeded state, after the capture is performed right?

[hybrid leaf]

Yes

[subtle bane]

In our current workflow, we are creating the payment intent in the uncaptured state, and the middleware(chargeBee) is sending a request to Stripe, which completes the transaction. We were able to successfuly implement that for cards.

[hybrid leaf]

I don't know how ChargeBee works so it's hard for me to advice.

Maybe you could reach out to them to see how they expect this to be implemented.

[subtle bane]

Yes, we will try that too. Will we be able to reopen this chat if there is any more queries regarding this issue?

[hybrid leaf]

I will have to close this soon, but you can write in #dev-help and my colleagues will help you.

[subtle bane]

Thanks,that works

[hybrid leaf]

Happy to help.
