🧑‍💻 ALL the code: github.com/marclou/stripe-sub
Stripe subscriptions are a pain (API, webhook, lifecycle...).
But there's an easy way. And it requires a few dozen lines of code!
We'll build a monthly/yearly pricing table for a SaaS, and let customers subscribe and handle their subscriptions. The tech stack:
- React
- Tailwind
- NextJS (API endpoint for the webhook)
- Stripe Payment Link
- Stripe Customer Portal

Would be great to see a video on the logic behind why customers are more likely to convert on a large one time payment rather than small monthly

@Jeannen 2 ай бұрын

Because a subscription add a mental charge, you have to remember you have it and to cancel it when you don’t need it anymore A one-time payment don’t have this issue, and give a feeling of ownership. Many people buy stuff “just in case” if it’s a one time payment

@tonnoztech 2 ай бұрын

true but sometimes you need a service just for a month. My best approach is to give both options, but trying to push for the 1 time payment in your SaaS.

@derHerrBoehm 2 ай бұрын

Also 95% of your customers don't come back after 3 months. So having a larger one time payment might be better for you than three small payments. Of course this is only possible if your app doesn't incure (large) cost to run it, e.g. AI apps.

GOLDEN information, wow - I moved to asia 3 months ago and started learning web development for the first time. I'm three months into learning so far and I've learned things like, HTML CSS JS - NodeJS Express EJS and SQLite. I am working on building my first saas product which I know for sure has a lot of untapped potential but my technical skills aren't there yet to achieve this. I am having trouble with Authenticating and managing databases and handling subscriptions like this video! I am aiming for 1 year or under to have the technical skills to ship my first app. Your videos inspire and help so much. Thanks

Hey! I have a question tho, for the one time payment model, what happens if that SaaS is just bought by a very few people, and after a few months you decide to kill it. They cant do nothing, because there was only like 30 days money back guarantee, right? Its the only problem I have using subscription/one time, for subscriptions - if project is dead, people just stop paying for it. :D Thanks to anyone that clarifies this to me

I have purchased Shipfast and built my own AI drawing website. I also connected to Stripe payment according to Shipfast's tutorial, but I don't know how to make a user credit system. That is, the user package can only generate 100 times a month, but I can't implement such credit deduction. Can you give us a tutorial on credits?

@marc-lou Ай бұрын

Are you doing a pricing similar to byedispute.com ? If so, it's just an integer in the database (credit: { type: Number }) I created 4 prices in Stripe and mapped them to a number of credits. In the Stripe webhook > Get the priceId > Update user credits Then whenever customers use the service, I remove -1 credit Hope it helps!
