I'm trying to implement Stripe Checkout without server integration (client-only). It seems like I cannot set tax rates when I call redirectToCheckout.
I've searched similar questions like the following but they aren't client-only and are using Sessions:
Stripe Checkout - Create Session - Apply Tax Rates on subscriptions
Tax Rate in new Stripe Checkout
This documentation seems to mention tax rates in Stripe Checkout but is using Sessions as well.
I couldn't find any documentation saying it is not possible so I've decided to ask here.
Thanks in advance!
You cannot use Stripe Tax or tax rates with client-only Checkout. This is one of many limitations highlighted here. Stripe generally advises against using client-only Checkout for these reasons.
If you'd prefer to integrate without a server component, then I recommend using Payment Links, which support taxes, instead.

My web app currently emails customers their Stripe receipt after purchase via stripe checkout. However for some customers this isn't enough – they want a paid invoice for the purchase with the information of my business and their business on it. How do you generate a PDF with this info?
I've investigated Stripe Invoices, but that seems to be a system for collecting payment. I already have payment from the checkout sessions. I just want to send the customer a souped-up receipt, really.
I've also considered using some js PDF library to generate the PDF myself, but it felt like there must be an easy way to do what I want with the Stripe API.
I've asked Stripe support the same thing.
They said creating invoices with Stripe Checkout is a common feature request but it sounds like it won't be coming for many months.
The only workaround for now is to use invoicing instead of Checkout:
https://stripe.com/docs/invoicing/integration
And for a similar UI to Checkout, use this:
https://stripe.com/docs/invoicing/hosted-invoice-page
Since ~November 2022 there is a feature just for this:
https://stripe.com/docs/payments/checkout/post-payment-invoices
It lets you generate an invoice just by setting a parameter in the request for creating Checkout Session.
I am new with paypal.
After searching for info it seems paypal has a lot of technologies, APIs etc to be consumed and I cannot choose to right one for my case
My business case:
Simple marketplace android application with 2 main actors:
Seller
Buyer
Actions:
When buyer want to buy something via marketplace -> he pays via own paypal account to seller (buyer can see paypal page and authorize payment)
Seller automatically send fee payment to marketplace's paypal account (seller does not need any time autorize payment to marketplace, it should be automatically after buyer send money to seller)
Thanks for every help!
There are a number of ways to get that done depending on the experience you would like for all parties involved.
PayPal would recommend that you use the Adaptive Payments API for this because it's exactly the sort of thing they built it for. Specifically, you could setup a chained payment. That will automatically split the payment between the seller and the marketplace / app owner.
I personally don't like the Adaptive Payments checkout experience, so I prefer to build the same functionality with Express Checkout.
For this, though, you would need to have the sellers that sign up with your marketplace create a billing agreement with the app (marketplace) so that you can trigger payments on their behalf.
Then you would build a reference transaction payment to yourself from the seller account any time you need to. So this could be as each transaction happens, or you could tally up some number of transactions and only process the reference transaction payment to yourself when the total reaches some amount, or do it once per week / month, or whatever you want to do in that case.
I recommend Express Checkout as your payment solution.
https://developer.paypal.com/docs/classic/products/express-checkout/
EC provides mobilized checkout page, and you do not need to apply for special approvals. And by setting PAYMENTREQUEST_n_SELLERPAYPALACCOUNTID in SetExpressCheckout API, you may achieve parallel payments easily.

I'm making a simple stripe checkout using Leadpages. With that said, I'm only able to use stripe.js rather than all of the massive API features that Stripe has to offer.
After entering the credit card information, the customer will be sent to an upsell page. Is it possible to do a 1-click upsell using Stripe.js?
If not, I may have to look into other options.
I'm developing a donation platform on which I'll be taking a fee and am looking into using Stripe, but I'm snagged on one point that I haven't found any documentation for thus far.
Stripe doesn't handle chained payments, but does mention in their FAQ that: "If you want to collect a fee on the transactions, you can charge these merchants with your API key using Stripe."
Anyone know of some documentation or examples I could reference for this? Or could anyone point me in the right direction with their existing docs?
Thanks!
Stripe doesn't handle chained payments, but does mention in their FAQ that: "If you want to collect a fee on the transactions, you can charge these merchants with your API key using Stripe."
This just means your platform's users can pay you via credit card, and you can charge these cards with your Stripe API key. If you email support#stripe.com with more details on your setup, we can help you decide how to best structure your platform payments.

My client is using moneris as our payment gateway for a new subscription based website that I am working on.
I will be using the language PHP
I've looked through their documentation for PHP api and am comfortable with how it works, it seems very straight forward.
One thing was missing in the documentation for me though. There is mention of how to start a recurring payment, how to update a recurring payment, but no mention of how to query a recurring payment?
Some payment gateways allow you to have a POST back URL of sorts that get updates on recurring billing status. This does not seem to be possible with moneris.
How do I go about automatting the process of tracking recurring payments with Moneris? I'd like for my customers to log in and be able to view their transaction history on my site.
This information will also make it easier for me to know when to close accounts. Ie. when a payment fails to go through, or a credit card expires? I don't want for my cleint(owner of website) to have to keep track of the recurring payments and cancel accounts manually?
I got an answer from Moneris:
Hi David, We currently do not have a reporting API or any way of
posting the information from our recurring payments back to your
server. It is something that has been mentioned previously and is
being looked into. We do not have a current ETA on such a solution.
