Stripe Payments

This gets you from zero to accepting payments without setting up an MCP server. It covers the decision tree between Checkout Sessions and Payment Intents, then generates working code for one-time payments, subscriptions, webhooks, and the customer portal. The webhook handler uses constructEventAsync for Cloudflare Workers compatibility since the standard method relies on Node crypto. Includes hardcoded price ID patterns, CLI commands for product setup, and the full signature verification flow. If you just need to bolt Stripe onto an existing app and want the boilerplate done right, this handles it. Defaults to Checkout Sessions since hosted pages get you live faster than embedded forms.

Stripe Payments

Add Stripe payments to a web app. Covers the common patterns — one-time payments, subscriptions, webhooks, customer portal — with working code. No MCP server needed.

Which Stripe API Do I Need?

You want to...	Use	Complexity
Accept a one-time payment	Checkout Sessions	Low — Stripe hosts the payment page
Embed a payment form in your UI	Payment Element + Payment Intents	Medium — you build the form, Stripe handles the card
Recurring billing / subscriptions	Checkout Sessions (subscription mode)	Low-Medium
Save a card for later	Setup Intents	Low
Marketplace / platform payments	Stripe Connect	High
Let customers manage billing	Customer Portal	Low — Stripe hosts it

Default recommendation: Start with Checkout Sessions. It's the fastest path to accepting money. You can always add embedded forms later.
