    Thanks for the reply Guust. I believe my customer tried to use the discount just once, and she got the error mentioned. Perhaps I am wrong, but it seems that I have to clear Stripe test data every time I try to use the discount code, even if its for a different user.

    Here’s a great example of what I’m describing. This lady (user ID 154) tried to sign up today. She does not have a subscription, and is a brand new user. She created her listing and went to the check out page. Then, she tried to use a discount code and encountered the following error (see screenshot “stripe error 1”):

    request POST body
    {
    “id”: “standard-listing_1883_299_799_month_0”,
    “amount”: “799”,
    “currency”: “USD”,
    “interval”: “month”,
    “interval_count”: “1”,
    “product”: {
    “id”: “1883”,
    “name”: “Standard Listing ($2.99 for the first month. Then $7.99 for each month.)”
    }
    }
    Response body
    {
    “error”: {
    “code”: “resource_already_exists”,
    “doc_url”: “https://stripe.com/docs/error-codes/resource-already-exists”,
    “message”: “Product already exists.”,
    “type”: “invalid_request_error”
    }
    }

    she then tried multiple times and ended up getting another error (see screenshot “stripe error 2”)

    I’ve deactivated discount codes for now since they are not working for us. Pretty much it seems that there’s an issue with using discount codes with Stripe . Please see my previous posts and screenshots showing Stripe error.

    Thanks!

    Let’s keep going here.
    Please restore admin access for the user so we can have a look.

    Ok. I should be able to do this tomorrow. We can even set Stripe to test mode if you guys like and I can provide access to the logs there as well.

    Both your monthly discount codes are set to be used only once by each user.

    I changed both codes to be allowed more than once by the same user and all works fine now.
    Please check.

    Does not work for me, or any of my advertisers. We have not once been able to use coupons successfully if we pay using Stripe.

    I’ve attached a screenshot showing my outcome after using your coupon “checkout”. It is the same error as before under a new username.

    Also, why do your test listings show “never” for the expiration date? the expiration date is supposed to be 30 days from now. Are you entering the listings from the front end? Thanks for the help.

    I want to dispel the notion that this has to do with a user using the coupon multiple times since this has come up again and again. I have tried creating a new user every time, and it still does not work. My advertisers have never been able to use a coupon, even though it is their first time checking out.

    It seems to be working again, it’s very strange. Basically, the codes started working again after I deleted the Stripe test data. It doesn’t make much sense.

    I made another discovery… if you change the coupon in any way it stops working.
