hi! I'm taking over this thread.

humble marsh
#

yes, we use connect

#

hi @jade river 🙂

#

right now we have no "products" created in Stripe - only subscriptions

jade river
#

to offer customer Gift cards through Cardivo
What is Cardivo? is it a third party tool you want to use?

humble marsh
#

and what I think I need to do is add all of the "products" to Stripe then link them via API and update my UI

#

but I have over 300 products

jade river
#

I'm a bit confused by your questions:

  • What is Cardivo?
  • What do you mean exactly by gift cards? are you talking about promotion code or something else?
  • Why do you think you need products to offer gift cards?
humble marsh
#

a customer can buy a gift card on cardivo that automatically links to my Stripe

#

it generates a promo code for Stripe

#

the UI I have for checkout does not have a place for "promo" codes

#

let me show you

jade river
#

cardivo.com
but what is it? is it your website? a connected account website? a thrid party website? something else?

#

the UI I have for checkout does not have a place for "promo" codes
is this your question? how to add a "promo code" input to the payment page?

humble marsh
#

yes that is the question

#

cardivo is a third-party gift card generator that creates Stripe promo codes

#

but yes my main question is how to add the "promo code" to the payment page

jade river
#

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

humble marsh
#

sorry I am not technical - my dev team is telling me that in order to add a promo code spot here I need to add products to Stripe Connect

#

so I just want to understand from Stripe's POV what is possible

jade river
#

my dev team is telling me that in order to add a promo code spot here I need to add products to Stripe Connect
promo code and products are completely unrelated no.

#

can you click on the "card" button so I can see what the form looks like?

humble marsh
#

yes

jade river
#

thanks! so you are using the Card Element, which doesn't natively support promotion code. so getting this to work will require some devlopement work:

  • editing the page to add a new "promo code" field
  • writing some logic to check if a promotion code is valid
  • writing some logic to update the total price if a valid promo code is entered
humble marsh
#

got it

#

is this something that should be fairly easy?

jade river
#

it depends on your setup and how you want promotion code to work.

humble marsh
#

can I provide you with the suggestion from the developer and let me know what you think?

jade river
#

sure

#

or it might be easier to directly talk to the developer

humble marsh
#

it probably would be 😅

#

but I also want to understand

#

the issue is that I know Stripe can pretty much do anything and it always seems like the dev solutions are very complicated

#

and that could be b/c I just don't fully understand

#

or that it is being presented to me as "complicated" by design

jade river
#

I'm sorry I don't have tiem to review a 5 page long document. I would recommend the developer to come on Discord, and ask their questions if they have some.

humble marsh
#

okay thank you!
