Stripe Subscriptions

Let's create a Stripe Checkout to set up a subscription and let our webhook handle the logic to provision access to the user.

You need to have Stripe and a database set up.

Setup

1. In your Stripe dashboard, Click [More +] > [Product Catalog] > [+ Add Product]. Set a name and a monthly price (or anything according to your business model). Then click [Save Product].
2. In the [Pricing] section, copy the product price ID (starts with price_) and add it to the first plan in the stripe.plans array config.js.
3. In /dashboard/page.js, paste this:/app/dashboard/pages.js1import ButtonAccount from "@/components/ButtonAccount"; 2import ButtonCheckout from "@/components/ButtonCheckout"; 3import config from "@/config"; 4 5export const dynamic = "force-dynamic"; 6 7export default async function Dashboard() { 8 return ( 9 <main className="min-h-screen p-8 pb-24"> 10 <section className="max-w-xl mx-auto space-y-8"> 11 <ButtonAccount /> 12 13 <h1 className="text-3xl md:text-4xl font-extrabold"> 14 Subscribe to get access: 15 </h1> 16 17 <ButtonCheckout 18 mode="subscription" 19 priceId={config.stripe.plans[0].priceId} 20 /> 21 </section> 22 </main> 23 ); 24} 25
4. Open http://localhost:3000/dashboard in your browser, log-in and click the button to make a payment with the credit card number 4242 4242 4242 4242.
5. Our webhook /api/webhook/stripe/route.js listens to Stripe events and will handle the logic to provision access (or not) to the user—See the boolean hasAccess in the User.js schema (NextAuth) or has_access in your Supabase profiles table.You need to have a Stripe local endpoint running on your computer for this to work in dev mode.
6. You can add your own logic in /api/webhook/stripe/route.js like sending abandoned cart emails, remove credits, etc.
7. Users can manage their accounts with <ButtonAccount /> (cancel subscription, update credit card, etc.)

That's it. You can build your SaaS on top of this flow!
