# Stripe Payments Api

## Overview
Stripe is a suite of APIs powering online payment processing and commerce solutions.

## When to Use This Skill
Use to implement e-commerce checkouts or software-as-a-service subscription pricing models.

## Quick Start (with runnable code examples)

```python
import stripe

stripe.api_key = "sk_test_..."

def create_checkout():
    session = stripe.checkout.Session.create(
        payment_method_types=['card'],
        line_items=[{
            'price_data': {
                'currency': 'usd',
                'product_data': {'name': 'Agent subscription'},
                'unit_amount': 2000,
            },
            'quantity': 1,
        }],
        mode='payment',
        success_url='https://example.com/success',
        cancel_url='https://example.com/cancel',

```
