Build a Full Cart, Ordering & Stripe Payment System in Bubble (Canvas Framework)

Building a real e-commerce or ordering system in Bubble goes far beyond adding a checkout button. You need proper cart logic, a clean data structure, reliable order flows, and a payment setup that won’t break in production.

In this tutorial, I walk through how to build a full cart, ordering, and Stripe payment system in Bubble using the Canvas framework, step by step, with real-world considerations.

What This Tutorial Covers

This is not a surface-level demo. The focus is on building something you can actually ship.

Here’s what you’ll learn in the video:

1. Product Listing & Cart Logic

You’ll see how to structure products and handle cart state properly in Bubble:

  • Adding products to a cart
  • Updating quantities
  • Removing items
  • Preventing duplicate cart entries

This approach avoids common mistakes that lead to messy workflows and broken totals.


2. Structuring Cart & Order Data

One of the biggest issues I see in Bubble apps is poor data modeling.

In this tutorial, I show:

  • How to structure cart items vs orders
  • When to create an order
  • How to convert cart items into order items cleanly
  • How to keep your database scalable as usage grows

This is especially important if you’re building a marketplace or multi-vendor app.


3. Order Creation & Status Flow

Once a user checks out, you need a reliable order lifecycle.

We cover:

  • Creating orders from cart items
  • Managing order statuses (pending, paid, completed, etc.)
  • Ensuring orders are only confirmed after successful payment

This helps you avoid scenarios where users get access without paying or payments don’t map correctly to orders.


4. Stripe Payment Integration

Stripe integration is one of the most requested topics in Bubble.

In the video, you’ll learn:

  • How to connect Stripe to your Bubble app
  • Triggering payments from the checkout flow
  • Handling successful and failed payments
  • Linking Stripe payments back to orders

All demonstrated within the Canvas framework setup.


5. Using the Canvas Framework the Right Way

Canvas gives you structure, but only if you use it properly.

I also explain:

  • How to organize workflows cleanly
  • Where logic should live in a Canvas-based app
  • How to keep your app maintainable as features grow

This is especially useful if you’re building client projects or long-term SaaS products.


Who This Tutorial Is For

This video is ideal if you:

  • Already have basic Bubble knowledge
  • Are building an e-commerce, ordering, or marketplace app
  • Want to integrate real payments with Stripe
  • Care about clean data structure and production readiness

If you’ve struggled with cart logic or messy Stripe setups before, this will save you time and frustration.
