In this episode of Stripe Developer Office Hours, Braden Sidoti, CTO and co-founder of Clerk, shares how to build a complete Stripe Billing experience without:
- Webhooks
- Custom UIs
- Stripe session juggling
Instead of abstracting Stripe Billing, Clerk connects directly to your Stripe account—letting Stripe handle payments, while Clerk handles:
✅ Prebuilt billing UIs
✅ Session-aware entitlement logic
✅ Identity-tied subscriptions and upgrades

- How to implement subscription + usage-based pricing
- How to support org-level billing and role-based access
- How to give users a secure self-service portal with zero custom code
