How to get the applied promo code once the payment is success?

Question

I need to know the promo code applied by the buyer during the checkout. The webhook event "checkout.session.completed" and the retrieve checkout session by id API don't have this detail, they only have a discount applied.

How can I get the applied promo code once the payment is done?

Answer 1

The checkout.session.completed event contains a Checkout Session object but without line_items expanded. What you'll need to do is make a separate call to retrieve the CheckoutSession and expand line_items.data.discounts to get details about the coupon used: https://docs.stripe.com/api/checkout/sessions/object#checkout_session_object-line_items-data-discounts
