I am so sorry

Do you want me to delete that post?

@sacred python You human, right?

[sacred python]

Yup!

Copy pasting what you have so I can keep it in one place:
Hello Devs, I am working on a SaaS project with Django, django-ninja and SvelteKit. I have developed a system that allows users to buy 1 credit per $1, which is working, but there are some default_product_id values I have added in the settings, but it feels somehow faulty.

Leaving the already-developed system aside, I wanna develop a way that allows users to buy multiple packages, along with the 1 credit per $1, how can I implement Stripe with Django for that? Do I have to create checkout sessions and all for that?

Please forgive my lack of knowledge. What could be the best implementation, a robust one 🙂
With our current system users can buy 1 credit for 1 dollar. I am using stripe.checkout.Session.create to create a one-time payment session.

And I am using checkout.session.completed to find out who paid for it, and assign the credits.

But, for the recurring payments, I dunno how can I track user's info, like the id, and assign the credits to the actual user.

Awesome. I believe, you're willing to help me out here, am I right?

[sacred python]

Yup, I can give you some pointers

You're basically just asking how to use Checkout Sesions to create Subscriptions, right?

[fringe hamlet]

Yes. And how to get the users info in webhook when the monthly subscription gets paid 🙂

[sacred python]

Have you read through https://stripe.com/docs/billing/subscriptions/build-subscriptions?ui=stripe-hosted yet? It has a full end to end guide on how to use Checkout w/ Subscriptions

Once you've got that working, you'll want to read https://stripe.com/docs/billing/subscriptions/webhooks to understand which webhooks to use
