We’ve seen an increasing debate on Twitter starting from @levelsio on how to raise prices in stripe. In the age of using stripe to easily monetize your product it is not easy to raise your prices. Some say, raise your prices for new customers but grandfather the existing. While this may work for some, if the cost of your product goes up, someone has to pay for it. In the thread we found a solution (link below) to raise your prices for all. Many, chimed in saying to give advanced notice to your customers first, then raise prices on the cutoff date. Below is script on how to do that!

Below is a detailed guide along with explanations for setting up a subscription page using Next.js, Stripe, and Supabase.

---

### Setting up the Subscription Page:

1. Creating the Subscription Page:

- Create a new page subscribe.js within the pages directory of your Next.js project.

```jsx

// pages/subscribe.js

import React from 'react';

const SubscribePage = () => {

return (

<div></div>

<h1>Select a Subscription</h1>

// Subscription options will go here

);

};

export default SubscribePage;

```

In this snippet, we create a new page called SubscribePage that will host our subscription options.

---

### Configuring Stripe:

1. Setting up Stripe Account:

- Sign up for a Stripe account and create a new product and pricing plans on the Stripe dashboard.

2. Installing Necessary Libraries:

```bash

npm install stripe @stripe/stripe-js @stripe/react-stripe-js

```

These libraries allow us to interact with the Stripe API and create a payment form.

3. Creating a Stripe Context:

```jsx

// utils/stripe.js

import { loadStripe } from '@stripe/stripe-js';

export const getStripe = async () => {

const stripe = await loadStripe(process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_STRIPE_PUBLIC_KEY);

return stripe;

};

```

In this snippet, we initialize Stripe with our public key.

4. Adding Stripe Elements to Your Project:

```jsx

// pages/subscribe.js

import React from 'react';

import { Elements } from '@stripe/react-stripe-js';

import { getStripe } from '../utils/stripe';

import CheckoutForm from '../components/CheckoutForm';

const stripePromise = getStripe();

const SubscribePage = () => {

return (

<div></div>

<h1>Select a Subscription</h1>

);

};

export default SubscribePage;

```

In this snippet, we use Stripe Elements to wrap our CheckoutForm component which will contain our payment form.

---

### Creating the Checkout Form:

1. Building the Checkout Form Component:

```jsx

// components/CheckoutForm.js

import React from 'react';

import { CardElement, useStripe, useElements } from '@stripe/react-stripe-js';

const CheckoutForm = () => {

const stripe = useStripe();

const elements = useElements();

const handleSubmit = async (event) => {

event.preventDefault();

if (!stripe || !elements) {

return;

}

const card = elements.getElement(CardElement);

const result = await stripe.createToken(card);

if (result.error) {

console.error(result.error.message);

} else {

const response = await fetch('/api/subscribe', {

method: 'POST',

headers: {

'Content-Type': 'application/json',

},

body: JSON.stringify({ token: result.token.id }),

});

const data = await response.json();

console.log(data);

}

};

return (

Subscribe

);

};

export default CheckoutForm;

```

In the CheckoutForm component, we create a form with Stripe's CardElement for collecting card details and a submit handler handleSubmit that creates a token via Stripe and sends it to our server.

---

### Setting Up Server-Side Handling:

1. Creating a Server-Side Handler for Subscriptions:

```jsx

// pages/api/subscribe.js

import { supabase } from '../../utils/supabase';

import Stripe from 'stripe';

const stripe = new Stripe(process.env.STRIPE_SECRET_KEY);

export default async (req, res) => {

const { token } = req.body;

try {

const customer = await stripe.customers.create({

source: token,

email: '[email protected]',

});

const subscription = await stripe.subscriptions.create({

customer: customer.id,

items: [{ price: 'price_1JH7...'}],

});

const { data, error } = await supabase

.from('users')

.update({ subscription_id: subscription.id })

.match({ email: '[email protected]' });

if (error) throw error;

res.status(200).json({ subscription });

} catch (error) {

console.error(error);

res.status(500).json({ error: error.message });

}

};

```

In this snippet, we create a server-side handler /api/subscribe to create a customer and subscription in Stripe, then update the user's subscription details in Supabase.

---

With these steps, you will have a subscription page where users can select a subscription, enter their payment details, and subscribe to your service. Upon successful payment, their subscription details will be updated in Supabase.
