I recently put together a beginner-friendly tutorial on how to integrate Stripe into your Flask application. If you're looking to implement payment processing but feel a bit overwhelmed, this guide breaks down the steps in a straightforward manner.
One of the key aspects of the tutorial is setting up user authentication to manage payments and subscriptions securely. We cover everything from user registration and login processes to implementing Stripe subscriptions and webhooks for handling payment events.
Additionally, you'll find snippets of code provided, which you can use as a handy template. By the end of it, you'll be equipped to start monetizing your Flask app with Stripe.
Here's what you can expect from the post:
- Setting up Stripe and your Flask app environment.
- Implementing user authentication using Flask-Login.
- Creating a checkout session for subscriptions.
- Handling webhooks to update subscription status in your database.
- Differentiating between free and premium content based on user subscriptions.
You only need a Stripe account to get started. For anyone interested, check out the full guide here: Integrating Stripe with Flask
