Stripe Pay Invoice: Understanding the Webhooks and Payment Gateway

When it comes to online payments, security and reliability are crucial. Stripe's payment gateway offers a secure way for businesses to accept credit card payments from their customers. One of the key features of Stripe is its ability to integrate with popular platforms like WHMCS. In this article, we'll explore how Stripe Pay Invoice works with WHMCS and what you need to know about webhooks and payment gateways.

Domain Association File

For Apple Pay integration, a domain association file is required. This file needs to be hosted at /.well-known/apple-developer-merchantid-domain-association on your site. Download the file from Stripe and upload it to your server.

Payment Options

Stripe's Payment Request supports various payment options, including credit cards stored in the browser, Google Pay, and Microsoft Pay. To use Apple Pay, an SSL certificate is required. WHMCS will auto-generate SSL certificates with new values when you enable this option within the module configuration.

Webhooks and Stripe Publishable API Key

WHMCS registers Webhook Endpoints to deliver events from Stripe, including updates on customers' cards. In WHMCS 8.0 and later, clicking Save Changes generates the Stripe Publishable API Key and Stripe Secret API Key, which are used to generate the Stripe Webhook Endpoint Secret and Stripe WebHook Endpoint Secret (Test/Sandbox).

Error Handling

When using the Stripe payment gateway in WHMCS, you may encounter errors such as:

* 7.8 Error Updating Remote Pay Method: Remote Storage Failed

* 7.7 An unexpected error - No Stripe Payment Method found from token

* 7.5 You passed an empty string for 'statement_descriptor'

* 7.4 Network error : Unsupported SSL protocol version

* 7.3 'You must provide a value for 'cvc'

Migrating to Stripe Pay Invoice

If you're migrating from a third-party Stripe module, WHMCS provides support for the migration process. Follow these steps to ensure a smooth transition:

* Update your Stripe API keys

* Configure the Stripe payment gateway in WHMCS

* Test your payments

In conclusion, Stripe Pay Invoice offers a secure and reliable way to accept credit card payments from customers. By understanding webhooks and payment gateways, you can ensure that your online business runs smoothly and efficiently. With this guide, you're ready to start using Stripe Pay Invoice with WHMCS.
