Overview
The Stripe Checkout Session action turns any automation into a paid flow. Call the action with a price, line item, or product ID and Taskade returns a hosted Stripe URL your user can pay on.
TL;DR: Point a form, button, or webhook at this action to accept payments in a Taskade Genesis app. Pairs with the Stripe integration triggers to close the loop. No backend, no webhook wiring for the success screen.
When to use it
- Sell a course, ebook, or template directly from a published Taskade Genesis app
- Charge clients from a client portal
- Take a deposit inside a booking form
- Run a recurring subscription checkout from an internal tool
