hi there!

how are you accepting payments? Checkout Session, Payment Element, something else?

[frail sigil]

subscription

[sharp egret]

ok, but how? with a Chekcout Session, Payment Link, the Subscription endpoint?

you should use webhook events to be notified when a user pays for a Subscripiton. you can learn more about this here: https://docs.stripe.com/billing/subscriptions/webhooks

[frail sigil]

no , i need to check promocode FirstTimeTransaction customer

so i need to find the customer already payment done or not.

[sharp egret]

I'm sorry I don't understand. can you explain your flow in more details and exactly what is the issue?

[frail sigil]

i created this promocde promo_1PU5dxBUmBAZBIgtHYK1B6Hn

this is restirction is, ""first_time_transaction"": true,

i need to apply this coupn in subscription, but before i need to check this is valid promocode for customer

i need to check this customer cus_P5wQFfOOb4eTmS done firsttime transaction done or not?

[sharp egret]

if you are using this parameter: https://docs.stripe.com/api/promotion_codes/create#create_promotion_code-restrictions-first_time_transaction
then Stripe will do the check for you.

[frail sigil]

i got this error "This promotion code cannot be redeemed because the associated customer has prior transactions."

[sharp egret]

then it means it's working as expected

what's the isse?

[frail sigil]

var subscriptionCreateOptions = new SubscriptionCreateOptions
{
Customer = "cus_P5wQFfOOb4eTmS",

            Items = new List<SubscriptionItemOptions>
            {
               
                new SubscriptionItemOptions
                {
                    Price = "price_1OHkS0BUmBAZBIgtbJL84FOb",
                },
            },
            
            PromotionCode = "promo_1PU5dxBUmBAZBIgtHYK1B6Hn"
        };
        subscriptionCreateOptions.AddExpand("latest_invoice.payment_intent");
        var subscriptionService = new SubscriptionService();
        try
        {
            Subscription subscription = subscriptionService.Create(subscriptionCreateOptions);

            return Json(new { clientSecret = subscription.LatestInvoice.PaymentIntent.ClientSecret });
        }
        catch (StripeException e)
        {
            Console.WriteLine($"Failed to create subscription.{e}");
            return BadRequest();
        }

this is my code

before sunscrition i want check the promocode is valid one "promo_1PU5dxBUmBAZBIgtHYK1B6Hn"

[sharp egret]

so you want to check if it's valid before creating the Subscription?

[frail sigil]

Yes

[sharp egret]

well the simplest option would be to create the Subscription, and if you get an error you know it's not valid. another option would be to check if that customer has made any transactions in the past.

[frail sigil]

i need to check before create subscription

when i try to create the subscribtip with promocode subscription created right?

[sharp egret]

i need to check before create subscription
yes I explained how to do it above

here:

check if that customer has made any transactions in the past.

[frail sigil]

first step promocode is check if valid or not
and then step 2 apply promocode in sunscription

[sharp egret]

yes, makes sense

[frail sigil]

How we check , check if that customer has made any transactions in the past.

[sharp egret]

so you'll need to track/check on your end if the customer made a transaction is the part or not.

[frail sigil]

please guide link send me

[sharp egret]

you could use this to list all payment made by a specific customer: https://docs.stripe.com/api/payment_intents/list

[frail sigil]

for this how we check, doc please

understood , i will check

any other option? other than this https://docs.stripe.com/api/payment_intents/list

[rustic prawn]

Why not just try to create the sub?

You'll get an error if it's not valid

Otherwise, no above is only option

[frail sigil]

if suppose valid promocode, the subscription created right? i need just check promocode valid or not before use it.

[rustic prawn]

if suppose valid promocode, the subscription created right?
yeah but why is this an issue?

Wouldn't you want to create it if it's valid?

[frail sigil]

flow is:
step 1: promocode is check if valid or not
step 2 : use promocode in sunscription if valid only.

if promocode is invalid we restict on UI to create a subscription(disabled subsription button on UI)

[rustic prawn]

Right, but a subscription won't be created if you pass an invalid coupon

The requirement is that it's two-separate steps?

If so, the solution my colleague provided is your only option

[frail sigil]

Yes two steps

step 1: promocode is check if valid or not
step 2 : use promocode in sunscription if valid only.
