I’ve been integrating Stripe subscriptions into my product. Up to this point, I’ve been relying on the customer.subscription.created and customer.subscription.update events to track payments and adjust customer states accordingly. However, I’m now uncertain about the significance of the invoice.paid and invoice.failed events. Could someone clarify why it’s important to listen to these events as well?
Moreover, I’m seeking guidance on the best practices for implementing subscription events in Stripe while maintaining security.
Here are the specific concerns I want to address:
How do we handle payment failures and ensure that if such an event occurs, the customer’s access to the product is revoked in the database?
I appreciate any insights or suggestions on this matter. Thank you!
Please answer with the events and how to change the state of the user based on the events and their properties.
