Saeven: yeah, you can have multiple cards per customer

Saeven: however, the subscription always draws from the default source

if I don’t set up a subscription for example

if you want to have multiple subscriptions drawing from multiple cards, you'd need one customer for each card

and my system instead triggers charge recurrence on its own rules

can I charge a customer ID at a given period?

corvid: is there anything interesting-looking in the browser debug console or the network panel?

Saeven: yes

ok! Thank you for your help.

Saeven: ah, so then ignore what I said re: default card only

since that doesn't apply if you're doing your own recurring billing logic

I guess I have to add then, an awareness of cards

actually, what do you mean by "at a given period"?

here’s an example

in a pay for use system, the customer coudl be paying for every 50k emails sent

that could be a very variable period

ah, gotcha

so, it would make the most sense to do this with charges

this doesn't map onto stripe's concept of subscriptions well

tr12: think it's possible to get this thing to work with meteor? Seems to fail if anything is loaded in the head tag

corvid: it's definitely the case that people use stripe with meteor

corvid: just as a sanity check, how are you sourcing stripe.js? just pointing to https://js.stripe.com/v2/stripe.js?

corvid: self-hosting stripe.js is not a supported configuration (for a bunch of reasons).

If I'm creating a PII token for a managed account, do I have to send the managed account info with it?

via the optional :stripe_account variable

Is there a CSV or JSON file with all of the ISO 4217 codes that Stripe accepts?

looking at https://support.stripe.com/questions/which-curr... you don't accept all of the codes

i'm trying to write some validation code

stripe must be having a lunch outside, team building, or power napping session together.

:100 emoji:

We can wait, silicon valley. ;)

dpg_: you'd create the token with stripe.js so you wouldn't pass the stripe account until you saved the token to a managed account

d_run: you can use the Country Spec api to get supported currencies for a country

mmm, interesting ok I was following the docs where it's just straight ruby

dpg_: the purpose of a token is so that your server doesn't touch the information

Are there any docs for PII w/ stripe.js

If you're play receiving that data then you don't need to use a token for it (only for card data is a token required)

"you're play receiving that data" what does this mean?

btw, markin, you're the best AI bot I've ever dealt with.

jk

*you're okay

Tay was.

What is the implication of receiving that data? Compliancy?

PIC

PCI*

Some states may have laws about it, but PCI only covers card data not SSN. And some people may not want to risk receiving it if their server is compromised

Ok. I'll just rec'v it. I use "cross my fingers" security.

How can I set the address in dashbroad -> general -> public info to blank?

Apparently the web UI ignores blank and does not allow me to reset the address

Hi there. How does Stripe order multiple subscription plans in the Customer object? By subscribed_at or by ID?

what's "Webhook" for?

frege: a webhook is a way for your server to get notifications from stripe

Rey: its order created

markin: but I already get that on my backend

kinda weird

the frontend is using https://checkout.stripe.com/checkout.js

frege: well how would you know if a subscription renewal went through?

then I receive a token

and on the backend I hit stripe with a Charge.create

that's how I get the same info

am I missing something here?

frege: sure but there are cases, like a subscription renewing that you don't get that in your backend

antkong: you could email support about removing that

hmm could you explain markin ?

what's the difference for subscription renewing?

thanks markin!

frege: your code doesn't renew a subscription, stripe does that automatically every month

are you talking about payments that are only for subscription?

Hi guys, I have a question about the best way to go about a subscription introductory fee (say, 2.99 the first month, 10 every month after that). I think my two options are a) set a negative account balance initially to reduce the cost of the first month or b) use a trial period of one month and do an separate invoice for the introductory fee - will either of these work or are there better options?

frege: webhooks are most commonly used for subscriptins

amoenk: you could do a coupon too

Ahh, coupon!

markin: so since the url for the webhook a constant; how do I process the request for a specific order?

should I put the order id into my metadata?

thanks markin! I peruse the docs for coupons.

frege: if you're doing just one off charges then you don't need to use webhooks though

markin: I might add subscription though

frege: so then you'd normally just store the subscription id in your own database

so I do want to get it done if I can now
