#stripe

does it only work because we are using an older api version?

lemony312: Well, not necessarily, but what if they already have a Stripe account?

@hpar We put the const import into our render function and now its compiling

Got it. Thanks!

thats a good point, will stripe not allow a user to register for 2 different accounts with the same email or same bank account?

Okay, it works when I set the font to Arial

Has anyone used a EMV/Swipe reader (https://www.magtek.com/product/idynamo) with the Swift iOS SDK? Curious how EMV payments are handled.

hpar so the script should be imported and have the variable defined inside the return() ?

I'm really not sure what you're doing WhitKennedy, can you share some code that's erroring? Officially you should be loading Stripe from a script tag

lemony312: No, they can't - the email is unique.

lord_florf: I believe you can send EMV data to Stripe somehow but I'm unclear on the details; worth writing to support about! https://support.stripe.com/email/login

Thanks @hpar

We are loading the script in our DOM. Console is saying that window.stripe is not a function.

@hpar

it's window.Stripe

we are doing window.Stripe

full line is "const stripe = window.Stripe(apikey);"

are you loading v2 or v3? are you certain that the script is loaded before your code runs?

We are loading v3 with <script src="https://js.stripe.com/v3/"><...; and it does show up under the Network assets in console

Hi everyone. Having trouble getting the card element to load on my page. I'm following the first example given on the Elements example page, but it doesn't seem to want to load. I can see the iframe and input in the HTML, but they aren't showing.

bhorbal: Are there any errors in the console?

timebox: No errors in the console.

All of the JS that you provide you can see if you can access that link.

We're going to try loading the API locally

Stripe.js won't function correctly when loaded locally, it has to be loaded from a Stripe domain

I'd try inspecting window.Stripe from your console after your app's loaded, I suspect that your code is running before Stripe.js is loaded for some reason

In console it says that Stripe is loading correctly. So I believe its there but it must be loading async and thus loaded after our payments.js has initialized? thanks for the help, we're going tt continue testing

bhorbal: Yup, can see that. It might be a CSS/layout thing; what happens if you just throw the `card-element` somewhere else? Does it show up?

hey, there is still no api endpoint to delete test data right?

Dev0n: There is not, no.

ok thanks

Used a fork from https://jsfiddle.net/ywain/L96q8uj5/

so far, Arial and Courier New work

BCApolloLC: so webfonts are currently being worked on, there's only a fragile way to implement them right now so I'd recommend holding off a few weeks for custom fonts if you can

timebox: Hmm, when I moved it, it showed up. Do you think it is CSS that I added that might be hiding it for some reason? I have it as a flex item in a flexbox. Does it do okay in flexbox?

question, when I create or update a stripe customer with card details, how do I know the card they entered is either Credit or Debit?

timebox: Ahh, it was my CSS. Thanks for the tip!

thanks hpar

so I guess we need to run our own node.js server

Hi, I'm trying to customize the Elements css, I'm using element.create('cardNumber',{ style:{base: {textAlign:'center'} } }) but I'm getting an error (Unrecognized property: textAlign is not a customizable CSS property.)

Hi!

I have a question about receipt emails

onkora: Hi! What's up>

?

I want to build my own custom email, and I'd like to have a receipt_number

but as I understand it that's only generated if I send using the dashboard

is there another way?

onkora: It's only generated when we email out receipts, but you can pretty much use anything you want - whatever makes sense for your application.

Is it possible to update sources directly from iOS without going through my backend? It seems like it should be since CustomerContext (using the ephemeral key) and PaymentContext do upload cards to the customer object.

iOS at least needs to reach out to your backend to get the ephemeral key

but yeah, with that, the latest version of the SDK can update a customer's cards directly

Right, it is doing that, but with which class can you upload directly?

hm, I'm a little bit time crunched, is there a way to generate a receipt but not send it?

I don't want to use the Payment context because I am simply collecting card information and not actually creating transactions or anything like that.

onkora: Unfortunately there is not, but you could use any string/number you wanted as a receipt number in your custom receipt - and you could store it in the Charge's metadata for cross-reference: https://stripe.com/docs/api#metadata

@hpar: thanks for always being quick to respond by the way.

justin_: I think you should be able to use the PaymentMethodsVC but I'm not clear how it works with the new customercontext stuff

Yeah I might just have to keep looking into it. I tried the PaymentMethodsVC but it has some undesired behavior for the app

you can also use paymentcontext but just not use the requestpayment part

Right but there doesnt seem to exist a method to upload a card with that

what do you mean by "upload a card"? it will show the customer their current list of cards

@hpar: I mean I want to add a card to the stripe customer object (and have it update on stripe) without going through my backend (other then to generate the ephemeral key). So I want to use the STPAddCardViewController to generate a token and then somehow upload that token to the stripe customer object using the Stripe iOS SDK rather than building my own endpoint to add the source myself on my node server.

how is the user entering the card?

STPAddCardVC

ah, so you're calling it directly?

Yes, not through the PaymentMethodsVC because the behavior of the VC is not what I would like

I have my own TableVC that lists the current payment methods, has a plus button at the top right

ah, gotcha

right, and paymentcontext always uses paymentmethodsvc except (I think) on a new customer

When a user clicks on the plus button I want to call the AddCardVC which returns me a token through the delegate. But I want to upload that token to the current customers list of sources.

you _should_ be able to do the ephemeral key stuff the SDK does but I'm not sure if there's a public interface for it

I feel like this should be possible since this same exact behavior is apparent while using the PaymentContext and PaymentMethodsVC

Gotcha

If I have to do this all on my node server it isn't the end of the world. I would just like to not maintain it myself when I know that the Stripe SDK is well maintained and would keep that all up to date.

I'm not sure this class is public but this is what you'd want https://github.com/stripe/stripe-ios/blob/maste...

if you made a key manager, you could give it your existing backend, and then you could use the manager to request a key

Do you know what class is used to actually update sources? Like CurrentCustomer.addSource(token) or something?

I think it's down in here https://github.com/stripe/stripe-ios/blob/e61f1...

again, though, it's not a public part of the SDK

I think your use case (wanting to specifically show an "AddCardVC") probably makes sense and it should be able to use the customer context to do that out of the box

but for now there's no public part of the SDK you can use, though you're free to approximate your own version

probably easier to just fire off an alamofire request tbh

(and add an endpoint to your Node backend)

Yeah you're probably right there

Too bad, I was pretty excited about the ephemeral key stuff but I don

t think that will do much for me now haha

yep, it's a good point to raise though! maybe something we might consider in a future version

Except maybe getting the list of current payments, so it's not a total waste. Thanks for your help

happy to!

I honestly am in love with Stripe's dev support and documentation. You all have a great thing going

Anyone here familiar with the setup for apple pay domains?

thanks! always great to hear :)

Greg___: very, what's up?

So we have two different stripe accounts associated with our application (CA and US accounts)

I just noticed the other day that we have been creating the domains for all our connected accounts through the api using our CA stripe secret key

However we have not had any reports of issues with apple pay

it shouldn't make a difference which account you register through, the main thing is that the domain + connected account combination have to be registered with Stripe and Apple

I see

So for example

If I told my connected account to trust google.com (which I obviously have no control over) as long as google had the domain association file setup then stripe would happily accept this?

justin_: oh hey

And create the domain record in the connected account?

justin_: so STPCustomerContext implements STPBackendAPIAdapter, so you _can_ call attachSourceToCustomer on it directly

@hpar: I don't believe though that attachSourceToCustomer is part of the public API?

hi! question

At least I dont get any autocomplete option on customerContext other than clearCachedCustomer

Greg___: correct, stripe & apple assume if you can put the specific domain verification file on a domain then you are authorized to do apple pay things there as well
