awesome. I have been studying the docs and the API / everything seems great

I am a little lost where I should setup my subscription signup, because I think it needs to be behind my auth wall

so a new user signs up, I verify their email / account, THEN they can buy a subscription

sorry can I ask you to pause and ask one clear full question in one message instead of really short sequential sentences?

[main umbra]

I can try

I am trying to figure out where I should put the subscription signup step in my already built web-app. I already have users that will need to be migrated to stripe subscriptions, and will get new users that will need subscriptions as well. To associate the users in my backend to their stripe subscription / stripe customer data, I think I need to put the stripe subscription signup inside of my auth wall, but that doesn't seem like how the stripe docs explain it. So I am looking for guidance on what stripe is expecting from me and if putting the subscription checkout behind a login is fine

Gotcha! So I can help with Stripe specific questions but here it sounds to be purely about your own integration? Sorry I don't really get what you call your "auth wall" and what the real problem is. We (Stripe) really don't have any preference of how you do any of this

[main umbra]

auth wall meaning that you need to login before you see the tiers / checkout

[carmine narwhal]

To us (Stripe) it doesn't matter at all at least.

But to most customers having to sign up before signing the pricing is likely to be a deal breaker

There will be publically available tiers just not the checkout, I mispoke - but thank you, I think I know what I need to do, I really just needed to write it out
