Payment Processing Failed - Stripe Integration Error

Payment processing fails even though credentials look correct. Users can't complete purchases. Stripe API returns errors.

Sometimes charge attempts fail silently or return cryptic error messages.

Error Messages You Might See

Error: Invalid API Key provided Error: No such payment_intent Your card was declined Charge not completed - webhook failed
Error: Invalid API Key providedError: No such payment_intentYour card was declinedCharge not completed - webhook failed

Common Causes

  1. Stripe API key (publishable vs secret) wrong or swapped
  2. Stripe not initialized before use
  3. Payment intent not created or expired
  4. Card declined due to insufficient funds or other validation
  5. Webhook for payment confirmation not received or processed

How to Fix It

Verify API keys: publishable key starts with 'pk_', secret starts with 'sk_'. Use correct key for each context

Initialize Stripe on backend only with secret key, never expose to client

Create payment intent on backend, pass client secret to frontend

Check Stripe dashboard Events for actual error details

Implement proper error handling and show user-friendly messages

These services handle high request volumes in production every month. What I bring to AI-built apps: - I audit and fix security issues (OWASP methodology), performance bottlenecks, and architectural problems in codebases generated by Cursor, Claude Code, Lovable, Bolt, and v0 - I refactor AI-generated prototypes into production-grade applications with proper error handling, testing, and clean architecture (SOLID, DDD, hexagonal architecture) - I set up the infrastructure AI tools don't touch: AWS hosting, CI/CD pipelines, automated deployments, database optimization, monitoring, and alerting - I integrate external services: payment providers, email systems, partner APIs, SSO/auth Tech stack: PHP 8.x, Symfony, React, Next.js, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Docker, AWS (ECS, RDS, S3, SQS/SNS, CloudFront), Terraform, Supabase.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's difference between publishable and secret key?

Publishable (pk_) goes in frontend, secret (sk_) stays on backend only. Never expose secret to client

How do I handle payment intent?

1) Backend creates intent with amount, 2) Frontend confirms with card details, 3) Webhook confirms completion

What does 'card declined' mean?

Many causes: no funds, expired, blocked by issuer, 3D Secure required. Show user message and retry option
