stripe-payments-integration

Create a checkout session API route using the stripe Node.js library with mode set to subscription, passing a price ID and success and cancel URLs. On the client, use @stripe/stripe-js to redirect the user to the Stripe-hosted checkout page with the returned session ID.

Create an API route that reads the raw request body and verifies the stripe-signature header using stripe.webhooks.constructEvent with your webhook secret. Then switch on event types like checkout.session.completed and customer.subscription.updated to sync subscription state to your database.

Yes, install @stripe/stripe-react-native via npx expo install and wrap your app in StripeProvider with your publishable key. Use initPaymentSheet and presentPaymentSheet from the useStripe hook, backed by a server endpoint that returns a payment intent, ephemeral key, and customer ID.

Webhook failures usually come from an incorrect endpoint URL, a mismatched webhook secret, or not reading the raw request body before signature verification. Confirm the endpoint is registered in the Stripe dashboard and that signature verification uses the exact raw body string.

Use stripe.billingPortal.sessions.create with the customer's Stripe customer ID and a return URL to generate a portal session. Redirect the user to the returned URL where they can update payment methods, change plans, or cancel their subscription.
