Prefill email on payment OR send custom email to Stripe

[mariuselz]

Hello,

I am having an issue and I was wondering if there is a way to send/prefill the email to payment form or to Stripe when creating a subscription.

My flow:
1. User goes to https://mywebsite.com/asp-payment-box/?product_id=1350
2. Fills in the details and presses Pay, or pays with Apple/Google Pay. Then the data is sent to Stripe for purchasing the subscription.
3. I catch the payment in my API with an action (asp_stripe_payment_completed)
4. In my API, I update my DB based on Stripe payment email (because I am able to see the Stripe object in the asp_stripe_payment_completed callback)

My problem:
In my DB, the user is “[email protected]”
In Stripe, especially if user pays by Apple/Google Pay, the email can be different (for example “[email protected]”)
This causes an issue in my DB updating, my code will look for “[email protected]” and it will not update the correct user ([email protected])

Looking forward for any ideas. Much appreciated, thank you!

Best,
Marius

Hi, the use case you described will require custom code development. We’ve sent you an email with more details, please reply to that email.

We’ve created an example addon that demonstrates how to capture a custom piece of information via a query parameter on the payment page and pass it to the Stripe API as metadata. Sharing it here in case it’s helpful:

Hi, thank you for this information.

Does it work with the “email” as well? I am asking because I’m aware this field might be sensitive, maybe it cannot be overwritten?

Looking forward to your reply, thank you!

Best,
Marius

The earlier example in this thread talks about sending the data to Stripe as as metadata (additional data).

If you want to pre-fill the standard email field’s data when the page is loaded, you can try the following example to see if that can work for your scenario:
