Introduction:

Do you guys ever wonder how payment process work in E-commerce websites? The whole process work using API provided by a payment gateway provider and these provider charges some percent in the return, for example, stripe charge about 3 percent from a successful transition. One just needs to follow their procedure on how to integrate with your website. It is very easy because most of the payment gateway provides have really good documentation. There are lots of payment gateways are available in markets such as Paypal, Paytm, Wepay and Stripe.  I think you guys already heard about some of them.  In this post, I am gonna show you how one can set up stripe payment on their website. and how to set up a one-time payment, create customer and set subscription using stripe API.

Install these requirements:

pip install stripe

Setting up a Stripe Account :

Sign up for Stripe at https://dashboard.stripe.com/register.

Read its official document for python from this link

Now go to api keys option under Developer section or simply follow this link

Basic understanding of api:

There are two api keys one is live and other is test. For live one should attach their credit details. Test keys are available for everyone because it is just for testing and I am also demonstrate with test keys.

Now copy your Secret key  it is like "sk_test_********************* "

 

Lets start playing with this api:

First of all import stripe module and place your test api key in a variable

import stripe
stripe.api_key = "sk_testxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"

Create Customer

Now create customer because we need customer to process any payment in stripe

stripe.Customer.create(
  description="Customer for rajat4665@gmail.com",
    name = 'Rajat',
    email = "rajat4665@gmail.com",
)
# it return a json respone where you can store its customer id for further process
# JSON:{}

Go to this link and see customer is register successfully

 

How to fetch data of existing customers:

customer_data = stripe.Customer.retrieve('Customer_id')

 

One-time payment:

One-time payment is known as charge in the world of stripe payments. So we need to create charge.

stripe.Charge.create(
  amount=2000, # amount is $20 it show 20*100
  currency="usd", # currency
  source="tok_mastercard", # this is default
  description="Charge for jenny.rajat4665@example.com"
)
"""
it return charge id , txt id in return store it in your database

 JSON: {
  "amount": 2000,
  "amount_refunded": 0,
  "application": null,
  "application_fee": null,
  "application_fee_amount": null,
  "balance_transaction": "txn_1Er87vIypo2lmEr61eixqsP0",\
"""

As you can see , one time payment has been done.

 

How to create Subscriprion in stripe :

First of all we need plans which user can subscribe , so go to link of stripe and create a plan.

Now click on new for create  a product plan  by click on new button and fill basic details like name , currency, price and Billing interval

As you can see i have created one plan.

fetch existing plan , bellow code will display all existing plans from you api , Here you need to capture plan_id it will use in subscription proceess

plan = stripe.Plan.list()
plan_id = plan['data'][0]['id']

 

Now we have created plan , created customer and we have plan id . Now time to create subscription

# create Subscription
stripe.Subscription.create(
  customer="cus_F2W1hNSAYf7pUm",# this is customer id who want to buy this subscription
  items=[
    {
      "plan": "plan_F2VGZl0q6F51Cf", # this plan id of particular plan
    },
  ]
)

# it will also return json response save it and mark subscription id
# subscription_id will use to cancel, update and track payment.

You can see its payment in transaction section.

And also check more details in subscription section.

How to cancel this Subscription:

 stripe.Subscription.delete('sub_id')

Moreover, you can also delete customer from stripe:

stripe.Customer.delete('cus_id')
