Stripe Checkout Foundations

Stripe Checkout creates a secure, Stripe-hosted payment page that lets you collect payments quickly. It works across devices and can help increase your conversion. Checkout makes it easy to build a first-class payments experience.

About this Repo

This repo corresponds to the Checkout integration built in the Checkout 101 video series. The initial code is the code provided by the Checkout Quickstart Integration Builder.

This repo differs slightly from the Integration Builder code:

• The hard coded API key has been replaced with an environment variable.
• Calls to Stripe.set_app_info and Stripe.api_version have been added to server.rb.

Running the code

1. Rename or copy .env.example to .env and set STRIPE_SECRET_KEY to your test secret API key.
2. Update the price id used in the Stripe::Checkout::Session.create in server.rb
3. Build the server

bundle install

4. Run the server

ruby server.rb

5. Visit http://localhost:4242/checkout.html to start the Checkout flow.
