Payments and Checkouts made dead simple with Express.

pnpm install @polar-sh/express zod

Checkout

Create a Checkout handler which takes care of redirections.

import express from "express";
import { Checkout } from "@polar-sh/express";

const app = express();

app.get(
  "/checkout",
  Checkout({
    accessToken: "xxx", // Or set an environment variable to POLAR_ACCESS_TOKEN
    successUrl: process.env.SUCCESS_URL,
    returnUrl: "https://myapp.com", // Optional Return URL, which renders a Back-button in the Checkout
    server: "sandbox", // Use sandbox if you're testing Polar - omit the parameter or pass 'production' otherwise
    theme: "dark" // Enforces the theme - System-preferred theme will be set if left omitted
  }),
);

Query Params

Pass query params to this route.

• products ?products=123
• customerId (optional) ?products=123&customerId=xxx
• customerExternalId (optional) ?products=123&customerExternalId=xxx
• customerEmail (optional) ?products=123&[email protected]
• customerName (optional) ?products=123&customerName=Jane
• seats (optional) ?products=123&seats=5 - Number of seats for seat-based products
• metadata (optional) URL-Encoded JSON string

Customer Portal

Create a customer portal where your customer can view orders and subscriptions.

import express from "express";
import { CustomerPortal } from "@polar-sh/express";

const app = express();

app.get(
  "/portal",
  CustomerPortal({
    accessToken: "xxx", // Or set an environment variable to POLAR_ACCESS_TOKEN
    getCustomerId: (event) => "", // Fuction to resolve a Polar Customer ID
    returnUrl: "https://myapp.com", // Optional Return URL, which renders a Back-button in the Customer Portal
    server: "sandbox", // Use sandbox if you're testing Polar - omit the parameter or pass 'production' otherwise
  }),
);

Webhooks

A simple utility which resolves incoming webhook payloads by signing the webhook secret properly.

import express from 'express'
import { Webhooks } from "@polar-sh/express";

const app = express()

app
.use(express.json())
.post('/polar/webhooks', Webhooks({
  webhookSecret: process.env.POLAR_WEBHOOK_SECRET!,
  onPayload: async (payload) => /** Handle payload */,
}))
