Examples

The latest release (6.1.0) has fixed the Metadata bug when used on certain services. The next version of Stripe.net will change how tokens/cards/existing cards are passed to the services via options. The plan is to have a StripeSourceCard (pass a new card), StripeSourceToken, and a StripeSourceExistingCard (when you want to use a customers existing card, but not the default card). This should make working with charges a lot more intuitive. The existing StripeSourceOptions will be marked as obsolete, but will still function... for now. :)

Release: 6.0.0
Stripe.net now supports .NET 4.5+ and is a portable class library. UWP, .NET Core, Windows 8, WindowsPhone 8.0+, and Xamarin are now supported.

Support

Search issues and pull requests to make sure your issue doesn't exist already. If it does, please leave a comment. Create a new issue if it does not exist.

You can often find me in IRC hanging out in #stripe on freenode.

Quick Start

It is recommended that you install Stripe.net via NuGet.

Next you will need to provide Stripe.net with your api key. There are 4 ways to do this:

a) Add an AppSetting with your api key to your config (this is the easiest way and will work throughout the app on every request) - will not work on portable platforms

<appSettings>
...
	<add key="StripeApiKey" value="[your api key here]" />
...
</appSettings>

b) In your application initialization, call this method (this is a programmatic way, but you only have to do it once during startup)

StripeConfiguration.SetApiKey("[your api key here]");

c) In any of the service constructors, you can optionally pass the api key (will be assigned that apikey for the life of the service instance).

var planService = new StripePlanService("[your api key here]");

d) In any of the service calls, you can pass a StripeRequestOptions object with the apikey specified.

var planService = new StripePlanService();
planService.Get(*planId*, new StripeRequestOptions() { ApiKey = "[your api key here]" });

Stripe Architecture

Watch the 2 minute video below to get a high level overview of the Stripe Architecture in a .NET project and understand how all the pieces fit together.

Stripe API Version

stripe.net forces a version of the Stripe API for which it was designed. You can find out the latest version supported by viewing StripeConfiguration.cs under the Infrastructure folder. If you are not using Stripe Event objects (which are most commonly used in webhooks) then you need to do nothing for stripe.net to be compatible with the Stripe API.

If you are using Stripe Events then you will need to email Stripe support and ask them to set your API version (you can see this in your Stripe Dashboard) to the one specified in stripe.net's StripeConfiguration.cs file.

See the video below for more information about stripe.net versions and how they correspond with Stripe API versions.

Examples

Plans

Creating a plan

If your site has multiple offerings, plans are perfect. You can create as many plans as you want and then just assign customers to those plans later on.

var myPlan = new StripePlanCreateOptions();
myPlan.Id = "hi, im unique!";
myPlan.Amount = 1000;           // all amounts on Stripe are in cents, pence, etc
myPlan.Currency = "usd";        // "usd" only supported right now
myPlan.Interval = "month";      // "month" or "year"
myPlan.IntervalCount = 1;       // optional
myPlan.Name = "Bronze";
myPlan.TrialPeriodDays = 30;    // amount of time that will lapse before the customer is billed

var planService = new StripePlanService();
StripePlan response = planService.Create(myPlan);

The returned StripePlan entity above will have a unique Id. You will want to persist this for later. When you create a customer you will be able to assign them to a plan id (or not)

Updating a plan

var myPlan = new StripePlanUpdateOptions();

myPlan.Name = "NEW Plan YO!";

var planService = new StripePlanService();
StripePlan response = planService.Update(*planId*, myPlan);

Retrieving a plan

var planService = new StripePlanService();
StripePlan response = planService.Get(*planId*);

Deleting a plan

var planService = new StripePlanService();
planService.Delete(*planId*);

List all plans

var planService = new StripePlanService();
IEnumerable<StripePlan> response = planService.List(); // optional StripeListOptions

StripeListOptions for paging

Coupons (queue-pons not coo-pons)

Creating a coupon

var myCoupon = new StripeCouponCreateOptions();
myCoupon.Id = "HOLIDAY10OFF";
myCoupon.PercentOff = "10";
myCoupon.Duration = "repeating";    // "forever", "once", or "repeating"
myCoupon.DurationInMonths = 3;      // valid when "repeating" only

// set these if you want to
myCoupon.MaxRedemptions = 100;
myCoupon.RedeemBy = '12/31/2012';

var couponService = new StripeCouponService();
StripeCoupon response = couponService.Create(myCoupon);

Retrieving a coupon

var couponService = new StripeCouponService();
StripeCoupon response = couponService.Get(*couponId*);

Deleting a coupon

var couponService = new StripeCouponService();
couponService.Delete(*couponId*);

List all coupons

var couponService = new StripeCouponService();
IEnumerable<StripeCoupon> response = couponService.List();  // optional StripeListOptions

StripeListOptions for paging

Tokens

Creating a token

A token can be used anywhere on Stripe where you would normally pass a card. Once it's created, it can be used on a customer or a charge, but only used once.

For production usage, you'll almost always want to create tokens with either stripe.js or Checkout, but it can be useful to create tokens with Stripe.net for testing.

You generally wouldn't want to use stripe.net to create tokens in production, since creating tokens with your server offers almost no security or compliance benefits - it still involves passing raw card data through your server. If you're OK with the additional compliance burden, it's usually still simpler to pass card data directly to the API. However, there are occasionally situations where it would make sense to create tokens on your server.

var myToken = new StripeTokenCreateOptions();

// if you need this...
myToken.Card = new StripeCreditCardOptions()
{
	// set these properties if passing full card details (do not
	// set these properties if you set TokenId)
	Number = "4242424242424242",
	ExpirationYear = "2022",
	ExpirationMonth = "10",
	AddressCountry = "US",                // optional
	AddressLine1 = "24 Beef Flank St",    // optional
	AddressLine2 = "Apt 24",              // optional
	AddressCity = "Biggie Smalls",        // optional
	AddressState = "NC",                  // optional
	AddressZip = "27617",                 // optional
	Name = "Joe Meatballs",               // optional
	Cvc = "1223"                          // optional
};

// set this property if using a customer (stripe connect only)
myToken.CustomerId = *customerId*;

var tokenService = new StripeTokenService();
StripeToken stripeToken = tokenService.Create(myToken);

Retrieving a token

var tokenService = new StripeTokenService();
StripeToken stripeToken = tokenService.Get(*tokenId*);

Customers

Creating a customer

When creating a customer, you can specify any plan they are on, any coupons that will apply, a credit card or token, and various meta data.

var myCustomer = new StripeCustomerCreateOptions();

// set these properties if it makes you happy
myCustomer.Email = "[email protected]";
myCustomer.Description = "Johnny Tenderloin ([email protected])";

// setting up the card
myCustomer.Source = new StripeSourceOptions()
{
	// set this property if using a token
	TokenId = *tokenId*,

	// set these properties if passing full card details (do not
	// set these properties if you set TokenId)
	Object = "card",
	Number = "4242424242424242",
	ExpirationYear = "2022",
	ExpirationMonth = "10",
	AddressCountry = "US",                // optional
	AddressLine1 = "24 Beef Flank St",    // optional
	AddressLine2 = "Apt 24",              // optional
	AddressCity = "Biggie Smalls",        // optional
	AddressState = "NC",                  // optional
	AddressZip = "27617",                 // optional
	Name = "Joe Meatballs",               // optional
	Cvc = "1223"                          // optional
};

myCustomer.PlanId = *planId*;                          // only if you have a plan
myCustomer.TaxPercent = 20;                            // only if you are passing a plan, this tax percent will be added to the price.
myCustomer.Coupon = *couponId*;                        // only if you have a coupon
myCustomer.TrialEnd = DateTime.UtcNow.AddMonths(1);    // when the customers trial ends (overrides the plan if applicable)
myCustomer.Quantity = 1;                               // optional, defaults to 1

var customerService = new StripeCustomerService();
StripeCustomer stripeCustomer = customerService.Create(myCustomer);

Don't let this be intimidating - all of these fields are optional. You could just create a customer with an email if you wanted.

// set this if you have your own application fees (you must have your application configured first within Stripe)
myCharge.ApplicationFee = 25;

// (not required) set this to false if you don't want to capture the charge yet - requires you call capture later
myCharge.Capture = true;

var chargeService = new StripeChargeService();
StripeCharge stripeCharge = chargeService.Create(myCharge);

Retrieving a charge

var chargeService = new StripeChargeService();
StripeCharge stripeCharge = chargeService.Get(*chargeId*);

Capturing a charge

If you set a charge to capture = false, you use this to capture the charge later. amount and applicationFee are not required.

var chargeService = new StripeChargeService();
StripeCharge stripeCharge = chargeService.Capture(*chargeId*, *amount*, *applicationFee*);

List all charges

var chargeService = new StripeChargeService();
IEnumerable<StripeCharge> response = chargeService.List(); // optional StripeChargeListOptions

Accounts

Creating an account

When creating an account, you can create a standalone or managed account. Standalone accounts are managed by Stripe and the account owner directly. Managed accounts are handled by your platform. See the Stripe documentation for more information.

Since Stripe returns ExternalAccounts as a single array (contains StripeCard's and/or StripeBankAccount's), that type is a dynamic StripeList. These are split up as ExternalCards and ExternalBankAccounts for your convenience.

var account = new StripeAccountCreateOptions();
account.Email = "[email protected]"  // this is required if it is not a managed account. the user is emailed on standalone accounts,
                                    // it's only used for reference on managed accounts
account.Managed = false;            // set this to true if you want a managed account (email is not required if this is set to true)

// a few optional settings
account.Country = "US"                                 // defaults to your country
account.BusinessName = "Jayme Davis' GitHub, Inc";
account.BusinessUrl = "http://github.com/jaymedavis";

var accountService = new StripeAccountService(account);
StripeAccount response = accountService.Create(account);

Retrieving an account

var accountService = new StripeAccountService();
StripeAccount response = accountService.Get(*accountId*);

Updating an account

Updating an account has almost all the same available properties as creating an account.

var myAccount = new StripeAccountUpdateOptions();
account.BusinessUrl = "http://twitter.com/jaymed";

var accountService = new StripeAccountService();
StripeAccount response = accountService.Update(*accountId*, myAccount);

Deleting an account

var accountService = new StripeAccountService();
accountService.Delete(*accountId*);

Balance

myTransfer.Amount = 100;
myTransfer.Currency = "usd";
myTransfer.Recipient = "*recipientId*";          // can also be "self" if you want to send to your own account
myTransfer.Description = "Sales Week #42";       // optional
myTransfer.StatementDescription = "Commissions"; // optional

var transferService = new StripeTransferService();

var feeService = new StripeApplicationFeeService();
StripeApplicationFee stripeApplicationFee = feeService.Refund(*applicationFeeId*, *amount*);

StripeListOptions (paging)

All Stripe List methods support paging, using limit, starting_after and ending_before properties. If you do not specify any options, limit will default to 10. Some examples of retrieving paged data from the StripeChargeService:

var chargeService = new StripeChargeService();

// get the first five results
IEnumerable<StripeCharge> firstPage = chargeService.List(new StripeChargeListOptions {
	Limit = 5
});

// get the next five results
IEnumerable<StripeCharge> nextPage = chargeService.List(new StripeChargeListOptions {
	Limit = 5,
	StartingAfter = firstPage.Last().Id
});

// get the previous five results again
IEnumerable<StripeCharge> previousPage = chargeService.List(new StripeChargeListOptions {
	Limit = 5,
	EndingBefore = nextPage.First().Id
});

StripeDateFilter (date filtering)

Many of the List methods support parameters to filter by date. To use this, use the StripeDateFilter class. You can combine the filters to make complex queries. Some examples are:

var chargeService = new StripeChargeService();

var chargesToday = chargeService.List(new StripeChargeListOptions {
	Created = new StripeDateFilter { GreaterThanOrEqual = DateTime.UtcNow.Date }
});

var chargesYesterday = chargeService.List(new StripeChargeListOptions {
	Created = new StripeDateFilter {
		GreaterThanOrEqual = DateTime.Now.AddDays(-1).Date,
		LessThan = DateTime.Now.Date
	}
});

Expandable Properties

Many of the services support expandable properties. Setting an expandable property to true means you want the entire object back instead of just the id.

For example:

var chargeService = new StripeChargeService();
chargeService.ExpandBalanceTransaction = true;
chargeService.ExpandCustomer = true;
chargeService.ExpandInvoice = true;

StripeCharge stripeCharge = chargeService.Get(*chargeId*);

When the StripeCharge is returned, the Customer, BalanceTransaction, and Invoice properties will be hydrated objects.

Events

Stripe sends Events (via webhooks) whenever an associated action occurs. The list of events Stripe sends is documented here: https://stripe.com/docs/api#event_types

Receiving events from Stripe

In your application, create a handler that looks something like the below:

namespace TheBestApplicationEverCreated { public class StripeHandler : IHttpHandler { public bool IsReusable { get { return true; } }

 	public void ProcessRequest(HttpContext context)
 	{
 		var json = new StreamReader(context.Request.InputStream).ReadToEnd();

 		var stripeEvent = StripeEventUtility.ParseEvent(json);

 		switch (stripeEvent.Type)
 		{
 			case StripeEvents.ChargeRefunded:  // all of the types available are listed in StripeEvents
 				var stripeCharge = Stripe.Mapper<StripeCharge>.MapFromJson(stripeEvent.Data.Object.ToString());
 				break;
 		}
 	}
 }

}

Create a StripeHandler.ashx in the root of your website (or wherever) that looks like this:

<%@ WebHandler Language="C#" Class="StripeHandler" CodeBehind="StripeHandler.cs" %>
Login to Stripe and go to Account Settings, webhooks - from here, you can setup the url that points to your StripeHandler.ashx for testing.

Whenever an Event is received, StripeEventUtility.ParseEvent(json) will convert the response into a StripeEvent object.

Retrieving an event

If you have the id and you want to retrieve the event

var eventService = new StripeEventService();
StripeEvent response = eventService.Get(*eventId*)

List all events

You can list events in the same way everything else works in Stripe.net.

var eventService = new StripeEventService();
IEnumerable<StripeEvent> response = eventService.List(); // optional StripeEventListOptions

StripeEventListOptions supports a type, StripeListOptions for paging, and a StripeDateFilter for date filtering

Stripe Connect

The Stripe Connect documentation can be a little intimidating, so I am going to try to break it down a little. Stripe Connect gives you the ability to accept money on behalf of other accounts, and access or modify connected accounts depending on permissions.

The first thing you need to do is register your platform with Stripe Connect.
The next thing to do, is have another party connect to your site. To do this, put a link on your site which will start the authorization process, or you can use a Stripe Connect Button. Your link will need to contain some querystring parameters:

response_type: code client_id: your client id from the stripe connect dashboard scope: read_only (default), or read_write (lets you modify their data as well) // this is optional and defaults to read_only redirect_uri: this is optional, and will return the user to this page when the connection is complete other options are available and you can learn more about them with the Connect OAuth Reference
When the user clicks the link on your site, they will be prompted to authorize the connection. At this point, they can create a new Stripe account or setup the connection with an existing account.

Your link will look something like this:

https://connect.stripe.com/oauth/authorize?response_type=code&client_id=*your_client_id_from_the_stripe_connect_dashboard&scope=read_write

The link above will return a code when the setup is complete (and also return back to your redirect_uri if specified). With this code, you can make a request to Stripe to get the StripeUserId for accessing their account.

In Stripe.net, you can accomplish this with the following code:

var stripeOAuthTokenService = new StripeOAuthTokenService();
var stripeOAuthTokeCreateOptions = new StripeOAuthTokenCreateOptions()
{
	ClientSecret = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["StripeApiKey"],
	Code = *the code returned from above*,
	GrantType = "authorization_code"
};

StripeOAuthToken stripeOAuthToken = stripeOAuthTokenService.Create(_stripeOAuthTokeCreateOptions);

You're done! Whenever you need to access the connected account, you simply need the StripeUserId from the StripeOAuthToken to be passed as part of the StripeRequestOptions which all service calls now support as an optional parameter.

For example, to get the plans on the connected account, you could run the following code:

var planService = new StripePlanService();
StripePlan response = planService.List(null /* StripeListOptions */, new StripeRequestOptions() { StripeConnectAccountId = *the StripeUserId on the StripeOAuthToken above* });

Depending on if your permissions are read_write or read_only, you can do anything on the connected account you can do on your own account just by passing the StripeUserId as part of StripeRequestOptions.

StripeRequestOptions

All of the service methods accept an optional StripeRequestOptions object. This is used if you need an Idempotency Key, if you are using Stripe Connect, or if you want to pass the ApiKey on each method.

var requestOptions = new StripeRequestOptions();
requestOptions.ApiKey = *optional*;              // this is not required unless you choose to pass the apikey on every service call
requestOptions.IdempotencyKey = "some string";   // this is for Idempotent Requests - https://stripe.com/docs/api?lang=curl#idempotent_requests
requestOptions.StripeConnectAccountId = "acct_*" // if you are using Stripe Connect and want to issue a request on the connected account

Errors

Any errors that occur on any of the services will throw a StripeException with the message returned from Stripe. It is a good idea to run your service calls in a try and catch StripeException.

The StripeException contains and HttpStatusCode and a StripeError entity. The StripeError entity contains the type, message, code and param. For more infomation, review the Errors section of stripe here: https://stripe.com/docs/api#errors
