Full Stack JavaScript Techdegree Student 12,614 PointsBackend To Integrate 'Stripe' Payments In Mobile App
I'm currently working on an iOS app that needs be able to store CC information and process payments. I'm building it to test the overall concept right now, and have been using Parse as the backend to store user info and other small pieces of data.
Initially, I was planning on using Parse's Stripe Cloud Module to add the payment processing, but it looks like it's become outdated and Parse has deleted the docs around it.
Not sure if there's a way to still use Parse as the backend for Stripe, or if I should try and set up a different server solely to process the payments. The server side code doesn't seem to intensive - I think it just takes the token from the app, attempts the charge it with Stripe, and returns the result to the app.
So basically, I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions as to where I could go from here? I haven't really wrapped my head around server-side programming yet, so ideally I'd like to avoid setting up a different server lol.
