Research and Experiment with Split Payment Functionality #2

rukaiah-edhah commented 1 month ago

As a developer, I want to research and experiment with split payment functionality so that we can implement an effective solution in our project.

rukaiah-edhah commented 4 weeks ago

I've looked into the main steps to implement split payments. Based on my current search, here are the steps we need to take:

[x] Set up the development environment
[x] Develop API routes for user onboarding
[ ] Integrate with external APIs (e.g., Amadeus API) to fetch listings and services (hotels, flights, etc.)
[ ] Use Stripe’s API to create account links and redirect users for onboarding.
[ ] Set up payment collection and implement logic to split payments between users
[ ] Use Stripe’s Transfer API to manage payouts (if needed)

For now, @JenniferLarsen and I have set up the environment and configured the Stripe SDK; our next steps include developing backend API routes for onboarding but that should be done after @Abutalibhasan sets up Vercel Postgres and implements the database schema for users and service providers.

We are done with the second task as well and will be focusing on fetching listings and services so that we can get back and work on the split feature.

For now, I will keep this issue open to track the tasks and prioritize what needs to be done before fully implementing the split payment functionality.
