SSDD47976yOk for anyone else too lazy :-) here is the jist of it:
The app is for musicians to be able to share music privately with folk in the industry. It’s a little like Soundcloud except a lot more private and targeted to the individual recipient.
Also, the key thing is that every time someone listens to one of your tracks, you get an instant notification.
Go to https://songbox.rocks/app and simply signup.
One of the first things I’d like to test is the actual signup process.
When it comes to the credit card bit use these test card details
Card number: 4242 4242 4242 4242
Expiry: 11/19
CVC: 666
Let me know how you get on, primarily with the signup process. Thanks so much! -
Choosing liferime just reloads the page and you "submit query" aint the best button label when registering haha

SSDD47976y@sharktits Such is the beauty of user testing :-)
I had LIVE plans loaded into my environment variables as earlier tonight I was testing LIVE subscriptions (with real money). However for the sake of user's other than myself, I switched back to test mode, but didn't add the TEST plans into my production environment variables.
I'm an arsehole. -
SSDD47976y@sharktits I deleted your last signup from the DB so you can start again, because I'm good like that.

SSDD47976yThanks to @sharktits that's one mighty bug crushed, and it wasn't even the one that was raised here.
However in addressing the bug that was reported I came across something more fundamental and it has now been resolved. -
Ill fuck around more later, but i got an exam in the morning. I like the idea tho, was just boutta release an album, might use it

csaki326yWhen signing up it recognizes my country and currency but the amount of money stays the same, so it says 70 Ft.
And yes after paying with the test card I also get an error, with yearly. -
SSDD47976y@Floydian this is awesome. Thanks! Most things I knew about. The currency thing has me a bit stumped although I haven’t been able to look at it yet. Also clicking on yearly shouldn’t take you to monthly, but I’m not surprised there’s issues as I did a lot of changes to that part of the process just before I posted this on here last night.

SSDD47976yI've fixed the currency bug, it was a bit annoying and although the stripe API is awesome, they could handle currency so much better.
In short, I find your country by IP (not perfect but perfect enough, if you're using a VPN and masking your country then fuck you). I then say IF country is UK then currency is GBP - ELSE currency is USD. This tells the app what plan to subscribe the user to.
I also generate the currency symbol the same way:
if country is UK then currency symbol is "£" ELSE it's "$".
However I was just telling stripe what country you were from and it was pulling currency from that. I had to add a third rule and specifically tell the stripe API that you were USD or GBP.
Anyway this wouldn't have come to light if it wasn't for folk testing in places like Hungary and elsewhere. So thanks very much.
PS. when I click yearly I am taken to "Yearly Signup" I can't reproduce that bug where yearly takes you to monthly.

nothing in it for you but a "thanks" and the warm glow of finding all my mistakes I'm afraid.
