With Laravel Stripe Connect, you can start your own marketplace platform using Stripe Connect which allows you to make transfers to your recipients directly from your Stripe account to theirs.
Laravel Stripe Connect provides a starting point to help you get your users set up and connected to your Stripe account and start making payouts in no time.
This package assumes that your
User
model is what will represent recipients of transfers from your platform, however this can be changed.
Install via Composer:
composer require simonhamp/laravel-stripe-connect
Add your Stripe credentials in .env
:
STRIPE_KEY=pk_test_XxxXXxXXX
STRIPE_SECRET=sk_test_XxxXXxXXX
Run migrations:
php artisan migrate
⚠️ If you intend to use a table other than yourusers
table to record your recipients' Stripe account details, publish the migration by runningphp artisan vendor:publish
and select the appropriate options. You can then edit the published migration in your app'sdatabase/migrations
folder.
Add the Payable
trait to any model that you consider to represent your recipient.
use SimonHamp\LaravelStripeConnect\Traits\Payable;
class User extends Model
{
use Payable;
Then you can use the convenient methods available to get your recipients to set up or connect their Stripe account to your platform.
Here's an example route that will get your user to go through the Stripe Connect onboarding flow:
Route::get('/connect', function () {
if (! auth()->user()->getStripeAccountId()) {
auth()->user()->createStripeAccount(['type' => 'express']);
}
if (! auth()->user()->isStripeAccountActive()) {
return redirect(auth()->user()->getStripeAccountLink());
}
return redirect('dashboard');
})->middleware(['auth']);
Once a user's Stripe account is all connected and active, you can start sending them payments:
auth()->user()->pay(10000, 'usd');
Remember: Stripe expects amounts in the smallest denomination for the currency (in this case, cents), so the above is a transfer of US$100 to the logged in user.
