Gatsby Mini Bootcamp
Develop and deploy a pay-what-you-want feature with Stripe
Would you like to add a tip jar to your site? Accept donations? Or sell a digital something?
I would and I have recommended your bootcamps to others because for me, it wasn't just about creating serverless functions, it was in fact a mini-crash course into the art of software engineering in itself. It cleared my doubts about my abilities to pull things off and seeing everyone go at it really helped boost my confidence delving into unfamiliar paths.

Learn Stripe with Gatsby Serverless Functions
Stripe is the gold standard for handling payments on the web. But getting started can feel overwhelming with all the APIs, webhooks, and security considerations.
In this bootcamp, you'll learn how to integrate Stripe with Gatsby Serverless Functions to build a pay-what-you-want feature from scratch.
Watch the blast-through video to get a sneak peek of what we'll build together!
What you'll build?
We'll continue working on TimeShip — this time adding a pay-what-you-want payment feature powered by Stripe. Users will be able to choose their own price and complete a payment to send their time-traveling messages.
What you'll learn?
- How to set up a Stripe account and get your API keys
- How to create a Stripe Checkout session using Gatsby Serverless Functions
- How to handle Stripe webhooks to confirm payments
- How to implement a pay-what-you-want pricing model
- How to securely handle payment data
- How to deploy your payment feature to production

Who am I?
My name is Benedicte Raae, aka Queen Raae. I have been coding since the late '90s. I hold a Master of Science in Computer Science and have made apps for the Swedish Armed Forces, numerous startups and agencies, as well as my own startup POW! that made an app with more than 200.000 users.
I have spoken at Gatsby Days and I am an active member of the Gatsby community, streaming live on YouTube every week.
I had never worked with serverless before, I assumed it was a topic that was way out of my league. But you proved me wrong! One aspect that I liked was the live sessions we had on crowdcast. I got the opportunity to ask questions and watch you code an application step by step. I would definitely recommend your bootcamps to others because this is a great opportunity to learn about emerging technologies and also connect with amazing people.
