Bubble and Paddle Integration

heyshivamkr · 2024-08-24T12:01:57.619Z

I am trying to use Paddle for payment in my Bubble app.

I am not good with API so I am working with a developer.

And here’s what he said last night:

Unlike Stripe we can’t checkout by just visiting a link. Based on the documentation the checkout request paddles own SDK . They have a javascript library to make that work on bubble we need a plugin. And all the plugins on bubble are deprecated or don’t work at all

So, according to him, we need to build a plugin to make the Paddle and Bubble integration possible.

I am sure there would be many of you using Paddle as Stripe is not available in all countries.

How do you integrate Paddle?

Please give some guidance.

You can use API Connector and the SDK for the checkout link

developer.paddle.com

Set your default payment link - Paddle Developer

Your default payment link is a quick way to open Paddle Checkout for a transaction, and used when updating a payment method. Set it in the Paddle dashboard.

So, it can be integrated without a plugin?

My developer mentioned that we need to build a custom plugin to make that happen.

Better to build a plugin yes.

Any reason why this would be better? Just curious since I felt that using JS within Bubble should be okay; or am I missing something here?

If you add JS to htlm element or header of the page, this is fine if you don’t need to manipule data/trigger event.

Using toolbox for me is just like setting a plugin inside a plugin. There’s more option if you do your own plugin (data, states, event…) and it’s easier for maintenance and lighter. Also, your script doesn’t on another plugin.

Finally, it’s a lot easier to create a plugin if you have an element draw on the page. this is the case for this SDK (if you use inline option).

Personnal point of view

Got it, yes, that makes sense as well. Another example of multiple ways of achieving the same thing
