hello! what's Payment Checkout (On My App)?

[subtle spoke]

Hi, I am meaning this https://docs.stripe.com/payments/checkout

From my app , I want to redirect the user to this checkout page

But I would like to link this checkout to an existing invoice

[halcyon shore]

Checkout is an entirely different flow, it cannot be used to pay a pre-existing invoice. It sounds to me that what you actually want is a post payment invoice. If that's the case, you can use Checkout Sessions to collect payment instead, and generate a post payment invoice : https://docs.stripe.com/api/checkout/sessions/create#create_checkout_session-invoice_creation

[subtle spoke]

Ooh ok ... it is clear for me now. It is not possible to pay an pre-existing invoice.

Thanks for the answer

if you want a hosted page for the customer to pay

Invoices already has that

why do you want to use the Checkout page?

[subtle spoke]

It because my customer wants to create the invoice manual on stripe

And if the user do not pay the invoice until the due date... I need to redirect him to the stripe web site to pay the bill when he tries to open the app

[halcyon shore]

the invoice has it's own hosted payment page : https://docs.stripe.com/api/invoices/object#invoice_object-hosted_invoice_url

[subtle spoke]

Is it not possible to pay the invoice through this invoice url and be redirect to my app again after the payment?

[halcyon shore]

no, if you pay that invoice through that invoice url, it's not possible to be redirected to your app again after the payment
