Markin: Wouldn't that mean my Stripe account would have thousands (or even more) plans ? Is this the recommended way to do it?

hello

Hi folks - I have a question on if Stripe can accommodate my use case here. I have a site where users can rent an item they own for daily rates. However, I also want to allow users the option of renting out their items on a monthly basis (longer than 1 month). The catch here is that users set their own pricing. Do I have to create plans on each rental in order to accomodate the subscription? Is there another way

that creates less "clutter"?

Wolfe_: sorry for the delay, got called into the meeting room. it doens't matter if your stripe account has thousands of plans. You're gonna have a database in your app that has a list of what each of these plans are anyways which would make it easy to cross reference

Markin: Thanks for the response. Will this be using Stripe Connect? And, if it is, can I collect my users' credit card information without using the redirect button?

Wolfe_: You could use stripe connect it will be a bit of wiring up cause you'd need to tie each plan to the stripe connect user. You can definitely use stripe checkout with Stripe connect

Markin: Thanks Markin. So if I want to do this quickly, I can use regular Stripe Connect (that looks like Paypal), and if I want to hide the button (make it seamless), then I have to wire it up?

Stripe Connect is what lets you charge on behalf of other Stripe users. Stripe checkout is the popup that lets you collect payment info as tokens

What about Stripe Marketplace? From the website, it looks to be the best tool for my use case - but when I create a Stripe account, there's no mention of it in the dashboard.

Wolfe_: stripe marketplace isn't an actual product, more of a marketing page discussing how you can use Stripe Connect and the Transfers API

Connect lets you build apps that can create charges on behalf of other Stripe users (and you collect a fee). Transfers lets you send money to US bank accounts from your stripe balance

Got it. If implementing thousands of plans is not going ot be an issue for Stripe, we'll start implementing it. Thanks for the help!

hey #stripe folks, what do you tell customers who's card is accepted by amazon, etc but has been declined by stripe?

SDr: there are a number of reasons why a card may have been declined. Their credit card company could tell them why

Hello...I have been reading through the documentation, and I had a specific question about subscriptions and was wondering if anyone knew the answer. Are subscriptions always charged to the default card? That is, if I change the card later, will all future subscriptions be charged to this new card? Thanks.

Has anyone used Stripe's checkout.js with the React framework?

We're having difficult with the pop up blocker, even though we're calling handler.open directly from the event handler

I should also note that we can call "window.open('http://google.com')" from the event handler just fine - that doesn't cause the popup blocker to interfere

so it seems to be something in .open() itself

Ok, it was in between the event handler and the call to .open - it seems that doing ".open" inside ClojureScript's core.async `go` block causes the problem
