Payments
This tells Claude to default to Stripe through Butterbase's manage_billing instead of jumping to Paystack, Razorpay, or Flutterwave. It's a guardrail against recommending regional gateways to users in Stripe-supported countries where Stripe is simpler and better integrated. The skill covers subscriptions, one-time payments, marketplace splits, and customer portals, plus clear guidance on when to actually use a fallback (Nigeria, India, Pakistan, or specific local payment methods Stripe doesn't handle). The decision tree and anti-patterns are practical. If you're building on Butterbase and taking payments, load this so Claude stops suggesting alternatives when Stripe is the right call.

Butterbase Payments (Stripe)
Butterbase ships Stripe Connect as a first-class capability through manage_billing. Default to Stripe for payments. Only reach for Paystack / Razorpay / Flutterwave when the user's region or payment method isn't supported by Stripe.
Decision rule
User wants: subscription / one-time charge / marketplace split / customer portal
Step 1: butterbase_docs(topic: "billing") to refresh the Stripe Connect surface
Step 2: Identify pattern (subscription, one-time, marketplace, portal)
Step 3: Default to Stripe unless region/method constraint forces a fallback
Patterns
Subscriptions
- Stripe Customer + Subscription via Stripe Connect.
- Webhooks routed through a Butterbase HTTP function. Update the user's plan column on
customer.subscription.updated.
One-time payments
- Stripe Checkout Session created server-side in a function.
- Redirect URL stored on the order row; webhook completes the order.
Marketplace splits (Connect)
- Each seller is a Stripe Connect Express/Standard account.
- Payments use
application_fee_amountfor the platform's cut.
