Next.js-Supabase Stripe Subscriptions Integration

I've been working on a Next.js project with my team, a powerful trading journal designed to help monitor emotions during trading. If you're interested in learning more, visit www.mindtrajour.com. As we approach the full release, integrating Stripe into our app became essential.

I've used Stripe numerous times in dummy apps like Netflix clones and Airbnb clones but never in a production app. Most online instructions focus on using starter kits, like the one created by Vercel and while the Stripe Docs guide you through integrating subscriptions, there’s no specific documentation for Next.js, particularly for the App Router. Although we can mimic the instructions for React + Node.js, the documentation lacks essential features, especially regarding Stripe triggers. This is why I've decided to document the process for you.

This guide assumes you already have a Next.js App Router setup with Supabase DB and Auth running. If you're starting from scratch, I recommend using the Vercel starter kit.

Prerequisites
Create Required Tables in Supabase
Get Supabase Service Role Key
Add Required Packages
Setup Stripe Code Locally
Add Webhooks to Sync Your Database with Stripe
Create Your Stripe Account and Connect the Webhook
Create Product and Price
Add Front-end to Test

Prerequisites

Next.js App Router setup
TypeScript (optional)
Supabase setup with Auth

1. Create Required Tables in Supabase

There are a few ways to accomplish this:

Create & Run Supabase Migration: Use below script to create the migration file
Run the SQL script in the SQL editor: You can run the script provided below directly.
Use the Quick Start template: Navigate to the SQL Editor, select "Quick Start," and run the Stripe Subscriptions template.

/** 
* USERS
* Note: This table contains user data. Users should only be able to view and update their own data.
*/
create table users (
  -- UUID from auth.users
  id uuid references auth.users not null primary key,
  full_name text,
  avatar_url text,
  -- The customer's billing address, stored in JSON format.
  billing_address jsonb,
  -- Stores your customer's payment instruments.
  payment_method jsonb
);
alter table users enable row level security;
create policy "Can view own user data." on users for select using (auth.uid() = id);
create policy "Can update own user data." on users for update using (auth.uid() = id);

/**
* This trigger automatically creates a user entry when a new user signs up via Supabase Auth.
*/ 
create function public.handle_new_user() 
returns trigger as $$
begin
  insert into public.users (id, full_name, avatar_url)
  values (new.id, new.raw_user_meta_data->>'full_name', new.raw_user_meta_data->>'avatar_url');
  return new;
end;
$$ language plpgsql security definer;
create trigger on_auth_user_created
  after insert on auth.users
  for each row execute procedure public.handle_new_user();

/**
* CUSTOMERS
* Note: this is a private table that contains a mapping of user IDs to Stripe customer IDs.
*/
create table customers (
  -- UUID from auth.users
  id uuid references auth.users not null primary key,
  -- The user's customer ID in Stripe. User must not be able to update this.
  stripe_customer_id text
);
alter table customers enable row level security;
-- No policies as this is a private table that the user must not have access to.

/** 
* PRODUCTS
* Note: products are created and managed in Stripe and synced to our DB via Stripe webhooks.
*/
create table products (
  -- Product ID from Stripe, e.g. prod_1234.
  id text primary key,
  -- Whether the product is currently available for purchase.
  active boolean,
  -- The product's name, meant to be displayable to the customer. Whenever this product is sold via a subscription, name will show up on associated invoice line item descriptions.
  name text,
  -- The product's description, meant to be displayable to the customer. Use this field to optionally store a long form explanation of the product being sold for your own rendering purposes.
  description text,
  -- A URL of the product image in Stripe, meant to be displayable to the customer.
  image text,
  -- Set of key-value pairs, used to store additional information about the object in a structured format.
  metadata jsonb
);
alter table products enable row level security;
create policy "Allow public read-only access." on products for select using (true);

/**
* PRICES
* Note: prices are created and managed in Stripe and synced to our DB via Stripe webhooks.
*/
create type pricing_type as enum ('one_time', 'recurring');
create type pricing_plan_interval as enum ('day', 'week', 'month', 'year');
create table prices (
  -- Price ID from Stripe, e.g. price_1234.
  id text primary key,
  -- The ID of the prduct that this price belongs to.
  product_id text references products, 
  -- Whether the price can be used for new purchases.
  active boolean,
  -- A brief description of the price.
  description text,
  -- The unit amount as a positive integer in the smallest currency unit (e.g., 100 cents for US$1.00 or 100 for ¥100, a zero-decimal currency).
  unit_amount bigint,
  -- Three-letter ISO currency code, in lowercase.
  currency text check (char_length(currency) = 3),
  -- One of `one_time` or `recurring` depending on whether the price is for a one-time purchase or a recurring (subscription) purchase.
  type pricing_type,
  -- The frequency at which a subscription is billed. One of `day`, `week`, `month` or `year`.
  interval pricing_plan_interval,
  -- The number of intervals (specified in the `interval` attribute) between subscription billings. For example, `interval=month` and `interval_count=3` bills every 3 months.
  interval_count integer,
  -- Default number of trial days when subscribing a customer to this price using [`trial_from_plan=true`](https://stripe.com/docs/api#create_subscription-trial_from_plan).
  trial_period_days integer,
  -- Set of key-value pairs, used to store additional information about the object in a structured format.
  metadata jsonb
);
alter table prices enable row level security;
create policy "Allow public read-only access." on prices for select using (true);

/**
* SUBSCRIPTIONS
* Note: subscriptions are created and managed in Stripe and synced to our DB via Stripe webhooks.
*/
create type subscription_status as enum ('trialing', 'active', 'canceled', 'incomplete', 'incomplete_expired', 'past_due', 'unpaid', 'paused');
create table subscriptions (
  -- Subscription ID from Stripe, e.g. sub_1234.
  id text primary key,
  user_id uuid references auth.users not null,
  -- The status of the subscription object, one of subscription_status type above.
  status subscription_status,
  -- Set of key-value pairs, used to store additional information about the object in a structured format.
  metadata jsonb,
  -- ID of the price that created this subscription.
  price_id text references prices,
  -- Quantity multiplied by the unit amount of the price creates the amount of the subscription. Can be used to charge multiple seats.
  quantity integer,
  -- If true the subscription has been canceled by the user and will be deleted at the end of the billing period.
  cancel_at_period_end boolean,
  -- Time at which the subscription was created.
  created timestamp with time zone default timezone('utc'::text, now()) not null,
  -- Start of the current period that the subscription has been invoiced for.
  current_period_start timestamp with time zone default timezone('utc'::text, now()) not null,
  -- End of the current period that the subscription has been invoiced for. At the end of this period, a new invoice will be created.
  current_period_end timestamp with time zone default timezone('utc'::text, now()) not null,
  -- If the subscription has ended, the timestamp of the date the subscription ended.
  ended_at timestamp with time zone default timezone('utc'::text, now()),
  -- A date in the future at which the subscription will automatically get canceled.
  cancel_at timestamp with time zone default timezone('utc'::text, now()),
  -- If the subscription has been canceled, the date of that cancellation. If the subscription was canceled with `cancel_at_period_end`, `canceled_at` will still reflect the date of the initial cancellation request, not the end of the subscription period when the subscription is automatically moved to a canceled state.
  canceled_at timestamp with time zone default timezone('utc'::text, now()),
  -- If the subscription has a trial, the beginning of that trial.
  trial_start timestamp with time zone default timezone('utc'::text, now()),
  -- If the subscription has a trial, the end of that trial.
  trial_end timestamp with time zone default timezone('utc'::text, now())
);
alter table subscriptions enable row level security;
create policy "Can only view own subs data." on subscriptions for select using (auth.uid() = user_id);

/**
 * REALTIME SUBSCRIPTIONS
 * Only allow realtime listening on public tables.
 */
drop publication if exists supabase_realtime;
create publication supabase_realtime for table products, prices;

2. Get Supabase Service Role Key

If you're running a local Supabase instance:

Start your Supabase container and copy the service_role key.

If you're using Supabase cloud:

Go to your Supabase project dashboard.
Navigate to "Project Settings."
Click on "API."
Copy the service_role key under "Project API keys."

Add this key to your .env file as SUPABASE_SERVICE_ROLE_KEY. Ensure this key is not exposed, as it could allow anyone to manipulate your data.

3. Add Required Packages

Install the Stripe and micro packages:

yarn add micro
yarn add stripe @stripe/react-stripe-js @stripe/stripe-js

4. Setup Stripe Code Locally

This step will create the backbone of our app. We will use these configurations in the next stages. Essentially, this step configures our Stripe setup and provides functions for the front-end. The server.ts file is particularly important, containing two significant functions. The Supabase code will provide admin scripts for the webhook to sync the database and queries to fetch data for the front-end.

Create a stripe folder in your project and add the following files:

//config.ts
import Stripe from 'stripe';

export const stripe = new Stripe(
  process.env.STRIPE_SECRET_KEY_LIVE ?? process.env.STRIPE_SECRET_KEY ?? '',
  {
    apiVersion: '2024-06-20',

5. Add Webhooks to Sync Your Database with Stripe

We haven't created our Stripe account yet, but be patient. Once we add our webhook and start listening to our app, our database will be synced with Stripe. All the products and prices added to our Stripe project will be reflected in our database.

This webhook ensures that Stripe can ping our app, and our app handles the necessary database synchronization. The code might seem intimidating at first, but all it does is listen for events and take action accordingly. For instance, when a product is created, we update our product table with the new product details.

Create a route.ts file under api/webhook or your preferred path. We will obtain the STRIPE_WEBHOOK_SECRET from Stripe in the next step.

// route.ts
import Stripe from 'stripe';
import { stripe } from '@/utils/stripe/config';
import {
  upsertProductRecord,
  upsertPriceRecord,
  manageSubscriptionStatusChange,
  deleteProductRecord,
  deletePriceRecord
} from '@/utils/supabase/admin';

const relevantEvents = new Set([
  'product.created',
  'product.updated',
  'product.deleted',
  'price.created',
  'price.updated',
  'price.deleted',
  'checkout.session.completed',
  'customer.subscription.created',
  'customer.subscription.updated',
  'customer.subscription.deleted'
]);

export async function POST(req: Request) {
  const body = await req.text();
  const sig = req.headers.get('stripe-signature') as string;
  const webhookSecret = process.env.STRIPE_WEBHOOK_SECRET;
  let event: Stripe.Event;

  try {
    if (!sig || !webhookSecret)
      return new Response('Webhook secret not found.', { status: 400 });
    event = stripe.webhooks.constructEvent(body, sig, webhookSecret);
    console.log(`🔔  Webhook received: ${event.type}`);
  } catch (err: any) {
    console.log(`❌ Error message: ${err.message}`);
    return new Response(`Webhook Error: ${err.message}`, { status: 400 });
  }

  if (relevantEvents.has(event.type)) {
    try {
      switch (event.type) {
        case 'product.created':
        case 'product.updated':
          await upsertProductRecord(event.data.object as Stripe.Product);
          break;
        case 'price.created':
        case 'price.updated':
          await upsertPriceRecord(event.data.object as Stripe.Price);
          break;
        case 'price.deleted':
          await deletePriceRecord(event.data.object as Stripe.Price);
          break;
        case 'product.deleted':
          await deleteProductRecord(event.data.object as Stripe.Product);
          break;
        case 'customer.subscription.created':
        case 'customer.subscription.updated':
        case 'customer.subscription.deleted':
          const subscription = event.data.object as Stripe.Subscription;
          await manageSubscriptionStatusChange(
            subscription.id,
            subscription.customer as string,
            event.type === 'customer.subscription.created'
          );
          break;
        case 'checkout.session.completed':
          const checkoutSession = event.data.object as Stripe.Checkout.Session;
          if (checkoutSession.mode === 'subscription') {
            const subscriptionId = checkoutSession.subscription;
            await manageSubscriptionStatusChange(
              subscriptionId as string,
              checkoutSession.customer as string,
              true
            );
          }
          break;
        default:
          throw new Error('Unhandled relevant event!');
      }
    } catch (error) {
      console.log(error);
      return new Response(
        'Webhook handler failed. View your Next.js function logs.',
        {
          status: 400
        }
      );
    }
  } else {
    return new Response(`Unsupported event type: ${event.type}`, {
      status: 400
    });
  }
  return new Response(JSON.stringify({ received: true }));
}

6. Create Your Stripe Account and Connect the Webhook

Next, we'll configure Stripe to handle test payments. If you don’t have a Stripe account, create one now.

Once you're in the dashboard, ensure the "Test Mode" toggle is activated.

Go to the developers section and copy the Publishable Key and Secret Key into your .env variables. We will also obtain the Webhook Secret soon.

# Stripe
NEXT_PUBLIC_STRIPE_PUBLISHABLE_KEY=<>
STRIPE_SECRET_KEY=<>
STRIPE_WEBHOOK_SECRET=<>

Download the Stripe CLI here: https://docs.stripe.com/stripe-cli
Navigate to the Stripe Developers tab and Webhooks. Open the "Test in local environment" tab.
1. Run stripe login in your terminal.
2. Copy the endpointSecret from the sample endpoint code and paste it into your .env variables as STRIPE_WEBHOOK_SECRET.
Run your app locally.
Start listening for events (adjust the link if necessary):
```
stripe listen --forward-to localhost:3000/api/webhook
```

Test the webhook by running a sample trigger:

stripe trigger payment_intent.succeeded

You should see output similar to the following in your console, indicating the webhook listener is working. Don’t worry about the 400 status code.

Stripe Console:
--> charge.succeeded []
--> payment_intent.succeeded []
--> payment_intent.created []
<-- [400] POST http://localhost:3000/api/webhooks []

7. Create Product and Price

Now that we have set up our webhook, we're ready to create our Stripe product and price. Ensure the webhook and development server are still running!

Go to the Stripe Dashboard.
Navigate to "Product Catalogue."
Click "Add Product."
Create a sample product for testing. In this example, I created a Recurring Monthly product.

Once the product is created, you should see webhook events being received by our server in the console. Check the Supabase tables to confirm that the new product and price have been added.

Good news! The backend is complete, and now we will move on to the front-end setup! 🚀🎉

8. Add Front-end to Test

I understand each app has its specific design style, so I’ll share example front-end code for testing. You can customize it to suit your needs.

First, we need a pricing page to view product options:

// page.tsx under the desired route, example: /pricing
import Pricing from '@/components/ui/Pricing/Pricing';
import { createClient } from '@/utils/supabase/server';
import {
  getProducts,
  getSubscription,
  getUser
} from '@/utils/supabase/queries';

export default async function PricingPage() {
  const supabase = createClient();
  const [user, products, subscription] = await Promise.all([
    getUser(supabase),
    getProducts(supabase),
    getSubscription(supabase)
  ]);

  return (
    <Pricing
      user={user}
      products={products ?? []}
      subscription={subscription}
    />
  );
}

You can use the example Pricing component here, but all we need is to map products and display them with a clickable button that triggers the checkout session: Example Pricing Component

// Sample Pricing.tsx
'use client';

import Button from '@/components/ui/Button';
import type { Tables } from '@/types_db';
import { getStripe } from '@/utils/stripe/client';
import { checkoutWithStripe } from '@/utils/stripe/server';
import { getErrorRedirect } from '@/utils/helpers';
import { User } from '@supabase/supabase-js';
import cn from 'classnames';
import { useRouter, usePathname } from 'next/navigation';
import { useState } from 'react';

type Subscription = Tables<'subscriptions'>;
type Product = Tables<'products'>;
type Price = Tables<'prices'>;
interface ProductWithPrices extends Product {
  prices: Price[];
}
interface PriceWithProduct extends Price {
  products: Product | null;
}
interface SubscriptionWithProduct extends Subscription {
  prices: PriceWithProduct | null;
}

interface Props {
  user: User | null | undefined;
  products: ProductWithPrices[];
  subscription: SubscriptionWithProduct | null;
}

export default function Pricing({ user, products, subscription }: Props) {
  const router = useRouter();
  const currentPath = usePathname();

  const handleStripeCheckout = async (price: Price) => {
    if (subscription) {
      return router.push('/account');
    }

    if (!user) {
      return router.push('/signin/signup');
    }

    const { errorRedirect, sessionId } = await checkoutWithStripe(
      price,
      currentPath
    );

    if (errorRedirect) {
      return router.push(errorRedirect);
    }

    if (!sessionId) {
      return router.push(
        getErrorRedirect(
          currentPath,
          'An unknown error occurred.',
          'Please try again later or contact a system administrator.'
        )
      );
    }

    const stripe = await getStripe();
    stripe?.redirectToCheckout({ sessionId });
  };

  if (!products.length) {
    return (
