Hi, let me help you with this.

#

What's the question exactly?
What do you mean by "unable to verify the events"?

raven needle May 31, 2024, 12:46 PM

#

In the test environment, I can't receive transaction events when working with subscriptions.

How can I test the complete flow?

Hi there. You can test the flow locally by following this guide: https://docs.stripe.com/webhooks

#

Specifically this section: https://docs.stripe.com/webhooks#test-webhook

#

I have some additional questions. I see that the repository works with the "checkout.session.completed" event. Is this the event I should consider to know if the transaction was successful?

proven shale May 31, 2024, 1:01 PM

#

Only if you don't use delayed notification payment methods. See: https://docs.stripe.com/payments/checkout/fulfill-orders

Fulfill orders with Checkout

Learn how to fulfill orders after a customer pays with Stripe Checkout or Stripe Payment Links.

#

If there's an error in a subscription payment over time, which API should I use to retry the charge?

proven shale May 31, 2024, 1:07 PM

#

You can automate this: https://docs.stripe.com/billing/revenue-recovery/smart-retries

Automate payment retries

Automatically retry failed payments and reduce involuntary churn.

#

ok

#

Does every invoice need to be sent to the buyer by me, or does Stripe handle that for me?

proven shale May 31, 2024, 1:10 PM

#

You're referring to each recurring Subscription invoice?

raven needle May 31, 2024, 1:12 PM

#

Yes

proven shale May 31, 2024, 1:15 PM

#

And do you want those invoices to be charged automatically and sent after payment succeeds, or do you want the customer to have to manually pay each?

raven needle May 31, 2024, 1:16 PM

#

I would like the invoices to be charged automatically and sent after the payment is made.

proven shale May 31, 2024, 1:22 PM

#

Gotcha. Yeah you can enable the emails for successful payments here: https://dashboard.stripe.com/settings/emails

Stripe Login | Sign in to the Stripe Dashboard

Sign in to the Stripe Dashboard to manage business payments and operations in your account. Manage payments and refunds, respond to disputes and more.

#

That will send receipts with a link to the invoice on successful payment

raven needle May 31, 2024, 1:23 PM

#

ok

#

If the payment fails and the buyer changes their payment method or resolves the issue with their current method, does the automatic process still continue?

proven shale May 31, 2024, 1:24 PM

#

Yeah as long as you didn't configure the subscription to cancel or something if payment fails

raven needle May 31, 2024, 1:25 PM

#

ok

#

Regarding taxes, does Stripe handle this automatically? Since every country has its own tax regulations, I'm unsure if Stripe takes care of this on my behalf.

proven shale May 31, 2024, 1:29 PM

#

Only if you enable stripe tax: https://stripe.com/tax

Stripe Tax | Tax Automation with a Single Integration

Automate tax compliance with Stripe Tax. Easily calculate, collect, and report sales tax, VAT, and GST on global payments with a single integration.

raven needle May 31, 2024, 1:29 PM

#

Besides taxes, are there any country-specific features or regulations that need to be considered and vary by country?

proven shale May 31, 2024, 1:30 PM

#

idk we're just developers who help with the api

#

we aren't familiar with regulations

raven needle May 31, 2024, 1:31 PM

#

ok

#

In subscription mode, does the transaction fee charged by Stripe change, or is it the same as with payment mode? Or is this already a matter of commercial negotiation?

proven shale May 31, 2024, 1:35 PM

#

We aren't familiar with fees either in here. Just help with api questions

#

Likely you need to talk to Stripe Support

raven needle May 31, 2024, 1:58 PM

#

OK thanks for the help.
