You can choose "Customer chooses price" when you create a Price object

But I need to fix that price from our side (backend) using the Invoice's amount, and the customer should not be able to change that amount.
With this option the customer can change this amount? The documentation says that the customer chooses the desired price to pay, similar to a donation/tip system
acoustic ferry
Ah I see. So you meant the custom amount is from your backend
Yes then you would need to create a Price for it, to start generating PaymentLink. It's a constraints, sorry
sonic moss
Ok, I understand, but isn't that a little crazy? Because we've thousands clients with thousands invoices, then creating a dedicated price for each invoice could generate millions of prices in our Stripe account over time
Could these prices be automatically removed when payment is completed?
If not, could we use Stripe Checkout for this purpose? Is possible to set a dynamic amount without creating a price?
acoustic ferry
It's exactly as you observed. PaymentLink is for a Price as a common object that you can share to thousands different customers.
Here you have different amounts for each customer, you would want to create CheckoutSession for them instead. Each person will have 1 Checkout Session
sonic moss
Ok, then we have 2 questions about Stripe Checkout:
- What's the duration of the checkout session's link after it's generated?
- Does each payment generate an Stripe Invoice, or just a PaymentIntent?
acoustic ferry
- 24 hours, can be shorter
- Just a Payment
