Step-by-Step Stripe Integration with Bolt.new

Step 1: Connect Supabase

1. Open your Bolt.new project.
2. Link your Supabase project when prompted.
3. Supabase handles user authentication and edge functions, so it’s required for Stripe integration.

Step 2: Enable Authentication

1. From the Bolt.new dashboard, add an authentication layer (user login/signup).
2. This allows Stripe to associate payments with authenticated users.

Step 3: Get Your Stripe Secret API Key

1. Log into your Stripe Dashboard.
2. Navigate to Developers > API Keys.
3. Copy your Secret Key for use in Bolt.new.

Step 4: Add Stripe Integration in Bolt

1. In your Bolt.new app, go to Integrations > Stripe.
2. Paste your Stripe Secret Key.
3. Click “Retrieve My Products“ to sync products from Stripe.

Step 5: Select and Sync Stripe Products

1. Choose the products or subscriptions you’d like to offer.
2. Click “Apply Selection”.
3. Bolt.new will automatically:
   • Generate checkout session handlers
   • Set up webhooks to monitor subscription status
   • Create customer billing portal access

Step 6: Test the Integration

1. Use Stripe’s Test Mode with sample credit card numbers.
2. Run through the entire checkout flow:
   • Add product to cart
   • Complete checkout
   • View email receipt
   • Access customer portal

Step 7: Go Live

1. Replace the test API key with your Live Secret Key.
2. Double-check:
   • Pricing details
   • Redirect URLs (success/cancel pages)
   • Tax settings (Stripe Tax if needed)
3. Publish your app!

Best Practices

• Always use test mode before launching publicly.
• Set up Stripe Tax for automated compliance.
• Offer local payment methods like Apple Pay or SEPA where applicable.
• Use the built-in Stripe customer portal to allow self-service updates.
