You should handle this as a sample Subscription use case

We are not a business. We are a non-prfit. Our Stripe payment link is on our website, but there is not option for recurring payments. When I googled it, it says - create a payment link with all the payment tier options, and then click advanced and choose DONATE. I couldn't find Advanced
bleak plank
Can you share the Stripe reference for this ?
paper sand
I kind of half created it, but couldnt figure it all out.
Sorry what do you mean Stripe reference?
In Stripe - the title is called ACCEPT RECURRING DONATIONS

Wait, can you walk me through from the beginning
I think I messed up right at the beginning
In the Stripe Dashboard, create a payment link.
Select Products or subscriptions.
Find or add a recurring product that represents the recurring donation.
Under Advanced options, toggle the call to action option to Donate.
Create the link and share it. You can share the link directly, embed it as a button on your site, or generate a QR code.
Track payments associated with the payment link in the payments overview in the Dashboard.
Learn more about creating and sharing payment links.
This is what I tried to follow

By just opening this link:

What do you see ?
bleak plank
Click on "Advanced Options" in the bottom left.
bleak plank
No it's optional.

But when I created this link I added $50 / $150 / $200 as options but where did they disappear to??

Yeah... hold on. I am so not a techy. I am a social worker trying to figure this allout

Between it's not a choice, if you add multiple option then the custom will pay them all.

You are probably looking for Pricing table instead:
https://docs.stripe.com/payments/checkout/pricing-table
paper sand
Okay will that be inside of the payment link?
radiant horizon
Hi there 👋 jumping in as my teammate needs to step away soon. Yup, Pricing Tables sound like what you're after if you want to show multiple pricing options to your Customers .
No, Pricing Tables are distinct from Payment Links
paper sand
Hey
Okay - so once my payment link is created, how do I make the pricing table visible on the same link to the donor who wants to donate?
radiant horizon
You don't, they're too separate concepts.
As shown in the guide my teammate linked above, you'll need to first create the Pricing Table in your Stripe dashboard, and then embed the generated code into your website.
paper sand
Okay, once I have created the pricing table, do I copy and paste the code?
My web developer can probably help at that point
radiant horizon
Yes, that is step 2 in the linked guide.
paper sand
Also, does the payment link have a "recurring" option?
In the back end it showed "one time" and "recurring" but I don't see it on the link that the public will see
radiant horizon
If you use a recurring Price, then the UI shows a message beside the price indicating the billing frequency.
paper sand
ok
I have never used discord before - all my kids have - lol. Can I close this chat and get back to it later and re-read it?
radiant horizon
Haha! I'll close it out once I've answered all your questions or it sits idle for a while, but you can come back to review it using this link:

(you can right-click on the thread in the left pane, and click Copy link to generate those links)

Okay I think I have enough info to complete the payment link setup. Then I will go figure out the pricing table, then talk to my web dev. I have copied the link above. Thanks so much. Likely I'll be back tomorrow! End of day work here in East Africa.
radiant horizon
Any time!
