So I have made a stripe payment option in my app. When I click the button pay now, it shows me that the payment is successful. and when I go to my stripe account and go to stripe-test and check logs, I can see my test payment with the code 200 OK. But this payment doesn't show in stripe-test events, or in stripe-test payments. Are the payments from logs processed the next day or am I doing something wrong?
def charge
Stripe.api_key = "some_test_api_key"
customer = Stripe::Customer.retrieve(stripe_customer_id)
if stripe_customer_id.nil?
Stripe::Charge.create(
:amount => 2500,
:currency => "cad",
:customer => stripe_customer_id,
:description => "Usage charges for #{name}"
)
end
rescue Stripe::StripeError => e
logger.error "Stripe Error: " + e.message
errors.add :base, "Unable to process charge. #{e.message}."
false
end
You are only executing if the stripe_customer_id is nil. What you want is the opposite, !stripe_customer_id.nil
I don't have points to leave comments, so I have to post it like an answer ..
Payments should be processed instantly, so there must be a problem in your request.
Webhooks have no any effect on payments, its just for tracking events on your site.
Please, can you show your request's body and stripe's response? You can check it in logs.

I'm working on the Stripe API and building a custom checkout function - My error is specifically telling me I must provide a source or customer. This is my controller for creating charges:
I thought I was successfully creating a source and/or customer with the following code (I also included the post logs on my stripe dashboard)
Stripe::Charge.create(
:amount => #amount,
:currency => 'usd',
:source => params[:stripeToken],
)
Stripe::Customer.create(
:email => params[:stripeEmail],
:source => params[:stripeToken]
)
"error": {
"code": "parameter_missing",
"doc_url": "https://stripe.com/docs/error-codes/parameter-missing",
"message": "Must provide source or customer.",
"type": "invalid_request_error"
}
}
I did go through the docs but I guess I'm still a little lost
Thanks for any assistance!
Update: here is the return of my API POST requests.
Update2: I see that a customer is being created when I send a charge.
Update 3: Source property is set to the stripeToken parameter, representing the payment method provided. The token is automatically created by Checkout. - this seems possibly connected to my issue - maybe it's not correctly posting?
So it did turn out to be a token request - since I was using a test card for test purposes I imagine I had to pass a test token to ensure that the test card would work.
I believe the Rails Params I was using (: source => params[:stripeToken]
) are fine for production but not when checking against given cards. In case someone comes across this as I did (and of course this probably isn't the first time it was asked on SO)
When using the Stripe API you see there is a token tab beside the test card numbers - I assumed those were optional or "for something else" for some reason. THEY ARE NOT.
You'll want to make sure the token matches whatever test card you plan on using (I think)
My Stripe controller now looks like this
Stripe::Charge.create({
:amount => #amount,
:currency => 'usd',
:source => 'tok_visa', #params[:stripeToken] might be for in production I think this is for testing.,
:description => 'Your Donation to Victoria University',
:statement_descriptor => 'Victoria University'
# it seems test tokens must be set as string.
})
Decided to leave my comments in there - because why not?
P.S You'll need different token types for different card payment types. If you switch cards - switch tokens as well !!!! - the tokens are tabbed beside the test card numbers.
I want to create subscription plans in stripe programatically, and I want to be able to run this many times so if the plans exist it should just ignore it.
I noticed if I try and retrieve a plan it throws an exception if it doesn't exist:
plan1 = Strie::Plan.retrieve("abcd123")
>>Stripe::InvalidRequestError: No such plan: abcd123
I create a plan using:
Stripe::Plan.create(.....)
I have a plans model that has all my plans, so I ideally want to do this:
Plan.all.each do |plan|
# create stripe plan here if it doesn't exist
end
What is the best way to handle this exception if the plan exists in stripe already?
Take a look at https://stripe.com/docs/api#error_handling
If you attempt to create a plan with an id that already exists, the request will fail and Stripe will throw an invalid request error. You should be able to wrap your plan creation call to account for errors. A barebones example:
require "stripe"
Stripe.api_key = "sk_test_xxxyyyzzz"
MyPlans.each do |plan|
# try to create a plan
begin
my_plan = Stripe::Plan.create(
:amount => plan.amount,
:interval => "month",
:name => plan.name,
:currency => "usd",
:id => plan.id
)
puts my_plan
# catch any invalid request errors
rescue Stripe::InvalidRequestError => e
puts e.json_body[:error]
end
end
I'm building an application (based in online resource). You can sign up or login with devise. Then, you can buy a product. Or make your own list and sell your products.
I'm integrating Stripe. When I create the Charge, I get this error in the console: Stripe::InvalidRequestError (Must provide source or customer.).
Here is the code of the orders_controller.rb for the charge action:
Stripe.api_key = ENV["STRIPE_API_KEY"]
token = params[:stripeToken]
begin
charge = Stripe::Charge.create(
:amount => (#listing.price * 100).floor,
:currency => "usd",
:card => token
)
flash[:notice] = "Thanks for ordering!"
rescue Stripe::CardError => e
flash[:danger] = e.message
end
Of course I'm taking a look in the Stripe API Documentation here: Charge documentation example and here: Charge full API Reference
I'm not sure how to handle the :resource or customer. I saw in other materials in the web that some people create a customer. In other sites it says that the :card is deprecated, so I'm a little confused.
I will leave the github repository of my project, and feel free to take a look. I'm trying to deal with Transfers and Recipients too. Project Repository
Thanks.
As mentioned in the docs, stripe expects either customer or source to be mentioned while creating a charge. So, you either need to
Create a customer on stripe(if you want to charge that customer in future too) from the token you received, and mention that customer while creating a charge,
customer = Stripe::Customer.create(source: params[:stripeToken])
charge = Stripe::Charge.create({
:amount => 400,
:currency => "usd",
:customer => customer.id,
:description => "Charge for test#example.com"
})
Or, if you don't want to create a customer, then directly mention received token as a source,
Stripe::Charge.create({
:amount => 400,
:currency => "usd",
:source => params[:stripeToken],
:description => "Charge for test#example.com"
})
For anyone going through the Stripe docs, you may have something like this (using an existing account)
account_links = Stripe::AccountLink.create({
account: 'acct_1032D82eZvKYlo2C',
refresh_url: 'https://example.com/reauth',
return_url: 'https://example.com/return',
type: 'account_onboarding',
})
if so, just change it to look like this (i.e. include the actual account.id you created in the previous step):
account_links = Stripe::AccountLink.create({
account: account.id,
refresh_url: 'https://example.com/reauth',
return_url: 'https://example.com/return',
type: 'account_onboarding',
})
I'm using ActiveMerchant to process a recurring payment. I want the payment to have a limited number of occurence but even if I pass the 'cycles' parameters my payment has no end or any trace of limited number of occurence when I go to see the results of my transaction in the sandbox site ??
Here is my gateway definition :
config.after_initialize do
ActiveMerchant::Billing::Base.mode = :test
paypal_options = {
login: "my_api.ca",
password: "QNBW72G3Q999999",
signature: "AFcWxV21C7fd0v3bYYYRCpSSRl31AmVtuyteuytuetwuytwtwEyY5cTGMA"
}
::MY_PAYMENT_GATEWAY = ActiveMerchant::Billing::PaypalCaGateway.new(paypal_options)
end
And here is my code to process the recurring payment :
response = MY_PAYMENT_GATEWAY.recurring(amount,
#publisher.credit_card.active_merchant_credit_card,
{:ip => request.remote_ip,
:email => current_publisher.user.email,
:period => 'Month',
:frequency => 1,
:cycles => #chosen_package.duration.to_i,
:start_date => Time.now.to_date,
:description => "Try to pay only #chosen_package.duration times !? "})
My comprehension is that the 'cycles' parameters should reflect as a maximum number of charge in sandbox test site but I'm stuck... like like it's not working !?
Any help appreciated ! Thx a lot !
Serge
I have found it by digging into ActiveMerchant source... The good parameters name is :total_billing_cycles, not :cycles as stated in the documentation that I have...
Work like a charm now :-)
I have a rails 4 app that I'm using Stripe checkout. I've followed their tutorial, and my controller looks like:
def create
s = Subscription.new
s.user_id = current_user.id
s.plan_id = params[:plan_id]
s.stripe_token = params[:stripeToken]
s.save
# Amount in cents
#amount = 699
customer = Stripe::Customer.create(
:email => current_user.email,
:card => params[:stripeToken]
)
charge = Stripe::Charge.create(
:customer => customer.id,
:amount => #amount,
:description => 'Sitekite Pro',
:currency => 'usd'
)
rescue Stripe::CardError => e
flash[:error] = e.message
redirect_to charges_path
end
I looked at a couple other tutorials, looking for help with creating a subscription with Stripe checkout. Some of them dont have the Stripe::Charge part. Is the Stripe::Charge part only for single charges? How do I sign the user up for a monthly subscription with the same #amount?
The Stripe::Charge is indeed for single charges. The Customer create is what you need, but when you create the customer you specify a plan (plans are defined in your Stripe dashboard). The plan will specify the amount to charge and how often to charge it.
When the charge is actually made, which might be the same day or might be several days later depending on whether your plan provides, say, some free access time... the Stripe service can send the charge to a webhook... which is to say a route in your project for the dedicated use of the Stripe service.
Stripe will post charges (and failures) to your webhook, and you can handle them appropriately (logging the payments and maybe restricting the user if his card becomes expired or a regular payment fails for some other reason)
