Createry template - Bubble not getting Stripe-ID

I’m using the Createry template and following the createry video guide. I have a Stripe account, and in testing mode I’m able to create a test Stripe seller account as a test user on my site. However, when I look in app data under User, stripe-ID is not being saved. The test users are showing up in my Stripe account just fine, but this workflow from the template doesn’t seem to be saving their Stripe-ID



Now this is weird: when I go to the user data base for that test user - I can see that the stripe ID is NOT filled but that user has been changed to Creator. Now if I change creator to No, log back in as that same user and go through the workflow - it does not take me through Stripe at all and somehow now Bubble fills in the stripe-ID

What is going on?!

Hi, @ramzieid!

Thanks for reaching out!

Bubble stores Stripe ID in the database in an invisible field that you can refer to. That’s why you don’t need to write additionally this field in the database. You are able to easily to refer to this field like this.

In this case, remove the Stripe_id field in the workflow.

Sometimes bubble does not have time to write data to the database, namely the Strip Id in the separate field “Stripe ID”, but actually there is no need because it is already written.

Hope this helps!

Thank you! I was worried something wasn’t getting imported into Bubble. Didn’t know there was hidden data there

My one feedback for the Createry template is that the Stripe subscription system is not robust enough to launch into live as is. For example, I don’t think there are workflows that will change the supporter plan for when a recurring subscription cancels or the card payment fails. I’m planning to basically redo the stripe system using stripe.js

Hi, @ramzieid!

Thanks for your feedback :pray:

So, the template contains the simple Stripe plugin with limited options, indeed. But we have an extended one- Stripe Marketplace Express. Please have a look at it and try it out on Live Demo page. Our plugin that offers pretty much all the tools for setting up a medium to high complexity payment system with the optimization and the high performance in mind. You won’t need to install multiple plugins or developing additional basic functionalities that other plugins are lacking. Also, we minimized the number of action calls to the minimum for achieving a faster performance and a more clean workflow.

However, you are able to change a payment gateway at any time, because all our templates are fully customizable, means you can change almost every design/functional part in it.

Best, Julia.
