oxo is a mexican chain of convenience stores with thousands of locations all across latin america and it represents nearly 20 percent of online transactions in mexico oxo allows their customers to pay bills and online transactions and online purchases in store with cash so the payment method is only available to stripe accounts in mexico you can go create a stripe account with mexico as the country to accept payments in oxo to make a transaction customers receive a voucher that includes a reference number for the transaction and they bring that voucher down to an oxo store and they actually make a cash payment and then you'll receive the payment confirmation by the next day along with all those settled funds so in this example we're going to assume that you already have a server set up for creating payment intents and you want to add support for the oxo payment method you want to create those oxo vouchers on the front end so if you don't already have a server implemented take a look at one of our example integrations in one of the officially supported server languages we'll have those linked down in the description also before we get too far if you're using just vanilla js and html or some other framework we have videos for accepting oxo payments with a simple javascript implementation that'll also be linked down in the description all right so we've got our server set up and running it has two endpoints that we're going to interact with today one is slash config for fetching the publishable key and one is slash create payment intent which takes in a payment method type we're going to pass oxo here and it also takes a currency here we're going to pass in mexican pesos so this is the endpoint that's actually going to create the payment intent on the server and it's going to return just its client secret property which we'll then use to confirm the payment on the client all right so let's take a look at what we already have set up this is a an app based on create react app all right so if we drill into index.js here you'll see that we are fetching config again to pull out that publishable key and retrieve that from the server and then down below here we're using the elements provider that is exposed as part of react stripe.js and this elements provider is expecting at least one prop which is a promise that will resolve to an object the stripe object or the stripe object itself and we're using this elements provider to wrap the entire app so that in any of the sub components of the app we can use bx stripe.js components these element components and we can also use stripe that is injected down from the elements provider we're going to do that with use stripe in just a bit all right let's go take a look at the app component now so the app component right now is a very simple switch that is going to allow us to build in some routes so we're going to create a new functional react component called oxo and when we hit the oxo route we want to render that component and it'll just be a very simple form that will uh confirm that oxo payment on the client so we're going to create a brand new oxo component here that is not yet defined so we're going to go into our source directory and create a new oxo.js so we'll start off by exporting the default with router uh for this oxo component we're going to use with router so that if we need to do any redirecting inside of the the component we can do so with router comes from this react router dom library and to start we'll just render some really basic html so we're going to start off with just spitting out a head tag and then we'll uh we'll build on this to to build out our form that's going to collect the name and email address all right we're going to resolve some of these issues that we're seeing on the right hand side in our browser by importing react from react and with router from react router dom all right the next step here is we want to create a form and this is where we're going to add controls for collecting the name and the email all right so this input is going to be a text input for the name and we're going to set the value equal to name and then we're going to have an onchange handler which we'll call set name so we're going to use the use state hook provided by react in order to manage the state for these for these input controls also give it an id here so that when we click on the name label focus is added to the input next up we'll create a label for the email address and its input again we're just going to use this use state logic that you've seen in most standard functional components for react all right now if we were to click on the button here we'll see that nothing actually happens because we don't have a submit handler so we're going to add the on submit handler to our form and we're going to first prevent default so that the the page doesn't reload and then when the form is submitted we want to do two things we're going to create a payment intent on the server and then we want to confirm that payment on the client to create the voucher that the user is going to bring into the access store to make their cash payment so we're going to make a post request to create payment intent and that will return an error property which we're going to alias to backend error and then it will also return the client secret again for that payment intent that we just created now this endpoint again expects two arguments uh the payment method type which is oxo and the currency which we're again passing mexican pesos here in practice you might hard code the payment method types on the server um in order to demonstrate the widest variety of payment method types we've decided to pass this in from the client to the server so that we can we can handle all different types of payment method type and currency combos all right next up we're going to check if there was any backend errors and if so we'll just log those out to a status messages div that we're going to display on the html page here we're calling add message and passing in the string value for the message add message we don't actually have that yet so we're going to import the status messages component and it has a hook called use messages and this used messages hook and status messages component work together to just give us a nice little status display box with some messages so that we don't actually have to open the javascript console to know a couple of things that are happening and so this is a very simple hook that will return an array of messages and then we've created the the setter is just add message the status messages component is really simple it's just a div that will iterate over a list of strings and then print those out to a block of messages okay so next up we want to confirm that payment on the client so we can call stripe.confirmoxo payment now this method is exposed by stripe.js and the first argument that it expects is that client secret property from the payment intent that was just created on the server the second argument is going to be an options block where we pass in some some details about the payment method specifically we want to pass that name and email that we just collected on the form so we're going to pass in name and email and that is it for confirming this oxo payment now stripe isn't yet defined here and that's because we need to load stripe using the use stripe hook so the used stripe hook is exposed or available in the react stripe js library here so we're going to import use stripe from at strive react stripe.js and what we want to do is when we handle submit we want to check and make sure that stripe is defined again this is passed down through that elements provider that we looked at earlier in the index view confirm oxo payment is going to return a promise and that promise will resolve with either an error object or a payment intent object if there was an error again we want to log out a status message otherwise we want to find out that the payment intent the status of the payment intent and its id all right let's take it for a spin we click on pay and we see the modal open so this is going to be the modal that has the voucher you'll see that that's the reference number if you want you can click on this print button and print that paper out and bring it down to the store alternatively you can uh just take in that take on take in that barcode and have it scanned in in the store now the one thing i noticed here was that status messages aren't showing up as we would expect so they should be showing in a box below the form here so let's take a look and see what's going on so we open up the terminal and we notice that status messages is defined but never used that's actually a really helpful message there because we didn't actually use the status messages component yet in our html that's rendering out so right below our form we're going to render the status messages component and pass in those messages from above that we again are managing with that hook so now if we click pay we see the output here in our status message and we have a link that we can click on to view the payment intent in the stripe dashboard you'll notice that initially the payment is incomplete by default the payment is going to be incomplete until the customer goes down to the store and and and pays cash so if you want to simulate immediate success of a payment you can pass this special email address that has the succeed underscore immediately in the text of the email address and that will create a payment intent that will succeed immediately so now if we view this one in the stripe dashboard we see that the payment was collected successfully and this is what you would see in practice once someone has actually gone down to oxo and paid cash to complete their payment all right as a quick recap in app.js we again we imported that new oxo component and we rendered a new route for slash oxo and in our oxo.js we defined a new form that has two controls one for collecting the name and one for collecting the email and again we we dropped that status messages div down at the bottom just for debugging purposes and so we can see these status messages next we added a submit handler for our form which did two things first it created a payment intent on the server passing in the payment method type and currency and then we confirmed that oxo payment on the client which returned the the payment intent or an error and then we were able to add messages that showed a little bit more information about the payment intent the code for this episode and all episodes are available in the description thanks so much for watching and we'll see you
