Pass `currency` to Stripe checkout for first-time buyers so Stripe
picks the matching `currency_options` rate configured on the Price
in the Dashboard (multi-currency Prices: one Price, per-currency
unit_amount). Operator configures the rates on existing Prices
prod_UaZ0xCpCboUGCN/price_*; this commit is the application-side
signal.
Currency precedence: explicit request body > Cloudflare cf-ipcountry
header > Accept-Language locale > GBP fallback. Only honoured when
the user has no stripe_customer_id yet — Stripe locks currency to
the customer record at first checkout, so existing customers keep
their original currency (they can switch via the portal).
Adds 4 tests: sniffed currency on new customer, body override beats
sniff, currency omitted for existing customer, and unit-tests for
the sniffing fallback chain.
The referral feature was half-built: codes captured, banner shown,
counts displayed — but no money flowed when a referred user paid.
The Settings page hard-coded "— (D.3)" for Active credits and the
marketing copy promised "50% off for 3 months" with nothing behind it.
Closing the loop:
- New `convert_referral(session, user)` in referral_service.py looks
up the user's Referral row, stamps `converted_at` + `credited_at`,
and extends `credit_until` by 45 days on BOTH the buyer and the
referrer. Idempotent — replayed webhooks and renewals are no-ops.
Stacks correctly when the user already has a credit window running
(anchors at max(now, current_credit_until) like cli.grant_credit).
- Stripe webhook wires this into `_grant_paid`. A captured
`first_paid_transition = user.tier != "paid"` gate avoids the DB
lookup on every renewal event; convert_referral's own idempotency
is the second line of defence.
- `_grant_paid` now takes `session` as its first positional arg so
the conversion runs inside the same transaction as the tier flip
and audit-row write. A mid-flight failure rolls everything back
together — no partial state.
- Settings page replaces the "— (D.3)" placeholder with the live
count of conversions still inside their 45-day credit window, plus
a "+N days on your account" hint when the user has any credit of
their own (referrer bonus, admin grant, or future refund-as-credit).
- Marketing copy on pricing.html + settings.html switches from "50%
off for 3 months" to "45 days of paid access" — same economic value,
honest about the actual mechanism (full free access rather than
discounted billing).
Credit-amount rationale: 50% × 3 months ≈ 1.5 months of free
service ≈ 45 days. Pure-credit delivery is processor-agnostic, needs
no Stripe coupon plumbing, and stacks cleanly across referrals.
7 new tests in test_referral_conversion.py cover the happy path,
idempotency, no-referral no-op, credit stacking, deleted-referrer
survival, end-to-end webhook → credit landing, and the renewal-event
no-double-credit guarantee.
Also bundled: the Restore-button class fix from earlier
(portfolio.js — the cloud-restore "Restore" submit was unstyled and
picked up browser defaults; now uses .settings-btn like the rest of
the action-button family).

Bundles three related pieces that came out of the operator's first
end-to-end test of the paid flow:
1. Manage subscription button on /settings (paid users with a real
Stripe sub — i.e. not credit-granted access). POSTs to the existing
/api/stripe/portal endpoint; Stripe-hosted customer portal handles
card updates, cancellation, monthly↔annual switch, invoice history.
Replaces the stale "Paid features unlock with Paddle (D.3) or
invite credits" hint for free users with a live link to /pricing.
2. Per-cadence cooling-off treatment:
- **Annual £70**: 14-day free trial via
subscription_data.trial_period_days=14. No money moves during
the trial, so the CCR 2013 14-day refund question doesn't arise
(nothing paid = nothing to refund). Card is still required at
checkout so Stripe can charge on day 15.
- **Monthly £7**: bills immediately. A 14-day trial there would
give away ~50% of cycle one. Instead, /pricing now carries a
required tick-box above the Subscribe buttons (subscribe stays
disabled until checked) — by ticking, the user expressly
consents to begin performance immediately and acknowledges that
this extinguishes their statutory 14-day right under Reg 36
CCR 2013. Consent collected on our own page (not via Stripe's
account-wide consent_collection.terms_of_service) so each
product can keep its own Terms URL as we add more.
3. T&C §6 clause 1 split into 1a (annual / trial substitute) +
1b (monthly / Reg 36 waiver via on-page tick-box). Clause 2
(post-cooling-off cancellation) unchanged.
Settings page shows "Free trial — N days remaining" while the
sub is in `trialing` status, falling back to "Paid subscription
active." once it transitions to active. Countdown is computed
server-side from User.stripe_trial_end_at (new column, migration
0020) populated by the subscription.created/updated webhook from
the Stripe trial_end timestamp; cleared on the trialing→active
transition and on revoke.
Drive-by: fixed a structlog kwarg-name collision on
`log.warning(..., event=event_type, ...)` in both polar_webhook.py
and stripe_billing.py — `event` is structlog's positional event
name and "got multiple values" crashed the user-not-found log
path. Renamed to `event_type=` everywhere it appeared. Caught by
the new trialing-stores-trial-end test.
Tests
- 4 new in test_stripe_billing.py covering monthly (no trial, no
consent_collection), annual (trial, no consent), trialing stores
trial_end, trialing→active clears trial_end.
- 1 existing test renamed + reworked for the consent split.
- Full suite: 224 passed, 5 skipped.

Stripe is the merchant-on-record for read.markets after Polar/Paddle
both declined the financial-media category. This commit lands the
full subscription flow: an "Upgrade" button on /pricing now opens a
real Stripe-hosted Checkout, completes the subscription, and the
webhook flips user.tier to "paid" idempotently.
Endpoints
- POST /api/stripe/checkout (require_auth) — creates a hosted
Checkout Session in subscription mode, passes user.id as
client_reference_id + email as customer_email, returns the URL
for the page-side JS to redirect to. Reuses an existing
stripe_customer_id to avoid duplicate Stripe customers on repeat
checkouts. allow_promotion_codes=True so the referral-credit
redemption can attach a coupon at checkout once that flow ships.
- POST /api/stripe/portal (require_auth) — mints a Stripe Customer
Portal session. Used by /settings; returns 404 until the user has
a stripe_customer_id (i.e. completed at least one checkout).
- POST /api/stripe/webhook — signature-verified via
stripe.Webhook.construct_event. Idempotent via UNIQUE on
stripe_events.event_id. Event dispatch:
checkout.session.completed → grant paid, store IDs
customer.subscription.created → grant paid (active/trialing)
customer.subscription.updated → grant paid (active/trialing)
customer.subscription.deleted → drop to free, clear sub id
invoice.paid / failed → audit only
charge.refunded → audit only
Stripe-SDK objects don't expose dict.get(); we use the SDK for
signature verification then re-parse the JSON body for handler
dispatch — cleaner than reaching into StripeObject internals.
Schema (migration 0019)
- users.stripe_customer_id, users.stripe_subscription_id (nullable
String(64), UNIQUE on customer_id).
- stripe_events table mirroring polar_events: event_id (unique),
event_type, received_at, processed_at, error, raw payload
(truncated to 16 KiB).
Settings (.env)
- STRIPE_API_KEY (rk_test_… for dev, rk_live_… for GA)
- STRIPE_WEBHOOK_SECRET (whsec_… from the dashboard endpoint)
- STRIPE_PRICE_MONTHLY (price_xxx for £7/month)
- STRIPE_PRICE_ANNUAL (price_xxx for £70/year)
Pricing page
- Free tier CTA unchanged.
- Paid CTA branches three ways: paid → "Manage subscription" to
/settings; logged-in free → two buttons (£7/mo, £70/yr) that POST
to /api/stripe/checkout and redirect; anonymous → /login?next=/pricing.
- Inline JS intercepts the button click, calls the checkout
endpoint, redirects on success, surfaces errors via alert(). No
Stripe.js dep — we use the hosted-checkout URL directly.
Polar handler stays in place for berengar.io / flyroom.net which
still ship through Polar. polar_* and stripe_* columns coexist
independently on the User row.
Tests
- 9 in tests/test_stripe_billing.py covering: bad signature → 401,
missing signature → 400, checkout.session.completed flips tier +
stores IDs, subscription.updated active grants paid,
subscription.deleted drops to free with customer id preserved,
replayed event id is no-op (one row in stripe_events),
unknown event acked 200, checkout endpoint mocks the SDK and
returns the hosted URL, checkout requires login.
- Full suite: 221 passed, 5 skipped.
