How to run

  1. Confirm .env configuration

This sample requires a Price ID in the PRICE environment variable.

Open .env and confirm PRICE is set equal to the ID of a Price from your Stripe account. It should look something like:

PRICE=price_1Hh1ZeCZ6qsJgndJaX9fauRl

Note that price_12345 is a placeholder and the sample will not work with that price ID. You can create a price from the dashboard or with the Stripe CLI.

Enabling Stripe Tax

In the server.js file you will find the following code commented out

// automatic_tax: {enabled: true},

Uncomment this line of code and the sales tax will be automatically calculated during the checkout.

Make sure you previously went through the set up of Stripe Tax: Set up Stripe Tax and you have your products and prices updated with tax behavior and optionally tax codes: Docs - Update your Products and Prices
