Hi, let me help you with this.
There's no built in functionality for this, unfortunately. One idea is to check if a non-expired Checkout Session exists with a given product, and prevent a new Checkout Session from being created.

Ok. So I was thinking that I need to create a product to achieve this.
I can handle some locking on my side but I think the product probably solves it better.
I haven't tested this yet though.
Maybe I can set the products "active" value.

I would say, if the products are unique, it's best to keep track of them on your side. Then when you create a Checkout Session, you can use price_data.product_data to create one-time Products and Prices on the fly: https://docs.stripe.com/api/checkout/sessions/create#create_checkout_session-line_items-price_data-product_data
You can save your own product ID for locking purposes in Checkout Sessions metadata

Hi there 👋 jumping in as my teammate needs to step away soon.
I'd recommend taking a look at using a Payment Link. When creating them you can now specify the number of completed sessions that they're allowed to lead to:
https://docs.stripe.com/api/payment_links/payment_links/create#create_payment_link-restrictions-completed_sessions-limit
I'd suggest setting that to 1 and test if that behaves the way you're hoping.
