What you'll learn

  1. 1

    Checkout, Subscriptions and Webhooks

    • The pieces of getting paid
    • Why not trust the success page?
    • A safe webhook handler
    • Project task: test mode only
    • If AI gets stuck

    • Availability isn't universal
    • Legitimate or not?
    • What to look for
    • Merchant of record, explained
    • Project task: build a comparison table
