hi there!

Hi

[olive locust]

you can't create a Checkout Session from the Stripe dashboard. but you could crete a Payment Link

[mint fog]

I see, damn

and there's no way a payment link can be associated with a given customer, right?

since they are generic let's say

[olive locust]

here's the doc on how to create a Checkout Session with the API: https://stripe.com/docs/payments/accept-a-payment?platform=web&ui=checkout

[mint fog]

yah, using the API I know we can do this

the problem we are trying to solve is to not develop any interface if posibile

[olive locust]

and there's no way a payment link can be associated with a given customer, right?
not directly, but you could the client_reference_id for this: https://stripe.com/docs/payment-links/url-parameters#streamline-reconciliation-with-a-url-parameter

[mint fog]

uh, ok

that's a bit unfortunately since we hoped we could make this work easier let's say

[olive locust]

I think I listed all the main options. using the API would offer you more flexibility for sure

[mint fog]

yah, that's for sure

but adds another layer of development because we need to implement some kind of interface

[olive locust]

true

[mint fog]

damn

sadly sounds like there's not much room for this

because the client want's to give manually a checkout link where the customer can pay

to get in touch with them before they pay, if they want to ofc

[olive locust]

makes sense, here's the guide for Checkout Session: https://stripe.com/docs/payments/accept-a-payment?platform=web&ui=checkout
