+# 🧹 Cleanup Old Stripe Functions
+
+## Overview
+
+Since we're now using **@supabase/stripe-sync-engine**, we need to remove the custom webhook handler functions that were created by the old `sql/36_stripe_webhooks.sql` file.
+
+## ✅ What's Been Done
+
+### Files Deleted
+- ✅ `api/src/stripe-webhook.ts` - Custom webhook handler (replaced by library)
+- ✅ `sql/36_stripe_webhooks.sql` - Custom webhook SQL functions (replaced by library)
+
+### Files Updated
+- ✅ `api/src/stripe.ts` - Now uses `StripeSync` library
+- ✅ `apps/main/src/hooks/stripe.ts` - Uses `stripe` schema
+- ✅ `sql/35_stripe_wrappers.sql` - Uses `stripe` schema, updated function references
+
+## 🗑️ Cleanup Database Functions
+
+Run this SQL to remove the old custom functions:
+
+```sql
+\i sql/cleanup_old_stripe_functions.sql
+```
+
+Or run manually:
+
+```sql
+-- Drop old custom webhook handler functions
+drop function if exists public.handle_stripe_customer_created(text, text, uuid);
+drop function if exists public.handle_stripe_customer_updated(text, text);
+drop function if exists public.handle_stripe_customer_deleted(text);
+drop function if exists public.handle_stripe_product_upsert(text, text, text, boolean, text, jsonb);
+drop function if exists public.handle_stripe_product_deleted(text);
+drop function if exists public.handle_stripe_price_upsert(text, text, boolean, text, bigint, text, integer, integer, jsonb);
+drop function if exists public.handle_stripe_price_deleted(text);
+drop function if exists public.handle_stripe_subscription_upsert(text, text, text, text, integer, boolean, timestamp with time zone, timestamp with time zone, timestamp with time zone, timestamp with time zone, timestamp with time zone);
+drop function if exists public.handle_stripe_subscription_deleted(text);
+```
+
+## ✅ Verify Cleanup
+
+Run this to check if old functions are gone:
+
+```sql
+SELECT routine_name
+FROM information_schema.routines
+WHERE routine_schema = 'public'
+  AND routine_name LIKE 'handle_stripe_%';
+```
+
+Should return **0 rows**.
+
+## ✅ Verify Kept Functions
+
+These functions are still needed and should exist:
+
+```sql
+SELECT 
+  routine_schema,
+  routine_name
+FROM information_schema.routines
+WHERE routine_schema IN ('public', 'stripe')
+  AND routine_name IN (
+    'is_paying_user',
+    'get_user_subscription_status',
+    'get_user_stripe_customer_id',
+    'sync_subscription_user_id',
+    'update_profile_subscription_status',
+    'update_updated_at_column'
+  )
+ORDER BY routine_name;
+```
+
+Should return **6 rows** (all the functions we still use).
+
+## 📋 Migration Order
+
+For a fresh setup:
+
+1. **Run stripe-sync-engine migrations**
+   ```typescript
+   import { runMigrations } from '@supabase/stripe-sync-engine';
+   await runMigrations({ databaseUrl: process.env.DATABASE_URL });
+   ```
+   Creates `stripe` schema and all base tables
+
+2. **Run custom SQL**
+   ```sql
+   \i sql/35_stripe_wrappers.sql
+   ```
+   Adds `user_id`, RLS, triggers, helper functions
+
+3. **(Optional) Run cleanup if old functions exist**
+   ```sql
+   \i sql/cleanup_old_stripe_functions.sql
+   ```
+   Removes old custom webhook handlers
+
+## 🎯 What Each Function Does
+
+### Functions We Keep (In `public` schema):
+
+| Function | Purpose | Used By |
+|----------|---------|---------|
+| `is_paying_user(uuid)` | Check if user has active subscription | Frontend queries |
+| `get_user_subscription_status(uuid)` | Get subscription details | Optional |
+| `get_user_stripe_customer_id(uuid)` | Get Stripe customer ID | API endpoints |
+| `update_profile_subscription_status()` | Trigger: Update profile.is_paying | Automatic |
+| `update_updated_at_column()` | Trigger: Update timestamps | Automatic |
+
+### Functions We Keep (In `stripe` schema):
+
+| Function | Purpose | Used By |
+|----------|---------|---------|
+| `sync_subscription_user_id()` | Trigger: Populate user_id in subscriptions | Automatic |
+
+### Functions We Removed:
+
+| Function | Why Removed |
+|----------|-------------|
+| `handle_stripe_customer_*` | ✅ Library handles it |
+| `handle_stripe_product_*` | ✅ Library handles it |
+| `handle_stripe_price_*` | ✅ Library handles it |
+| `handle_stripe_subscription_*` | ✅ Library handles it |
+
+## 🎉 Result
+
+**Before:**
+- Custom webhook handlers: 9 functions
+- Custom webhook processing code: 267 lines (TypeScript)
+- Custom SQL functions: 315 lines
+
+**After:**
+- Library handles all webhooks automatically
+- Custom functions: 6 (only for profile integration)
+- Total custom code: ~150 lines
+
+**Reduction**: ~80% less code to maintain! 🎊
+
+## 📝 Summary
+
+✅ Old webhook handler functions removed  
+✅ stripe-sync-engine library integrated  
+✅ All code updated to use `stripe` schema  
+✅ RLS policies in place  
+✅ Helper functions preserved  
+✅ Triggers working  
+
+**Next**: Test with fake accounts (see `docs/TESTING_WITH_FAKE_ACCOUNTS.md`)

+# Stripe Integration Architecture
+
+## 🏗️ Simplified Webhook-Based Architecture
+
+### Overview
+
+This integration uses a **pure webhook-based approach** without Foreign Data Wrappers:
+
+```
+┌─────────────┐
+│   Stripe    │ (Source of truth)
+└──────┬──────┘
+       │ Webhooks
+       ↓
+┌─────────────┐
+│  Node.js    │ (Webhook processor)
+│     API     │
+└──────┬──────┘
+       │ SQL Functions
+       ↓
+┌─────────────┐
+│  Supabase   │ (Data storage)
+│   Database  │
+└──────┬──────┘
+       │ Direct queries (RLS)
+       ↓
+┌─────────────┐
+│  Frontend   │ (React app)
+│   (Vite)    │
+└─────────────┘
+```
+
+## 📊 Data Flow Patterns
+
+### Read Pattern (Fast ⚡)
+```
+Frontend → Supabase Client → RLS Policies → Database Tables
+```
+
+**Examples:**
+- Check if user is paying: `user.is_paying`
+- Get subscription: `useSubscription()` → queries `stripe_subscriptions`
+- Get prices: `useStripePrices()` → queries `stripe_prices`
+
+**Benefits:**
+- No API latency
+- Real-time capable
+- Secure via RLS
+- Automatic caching
+
+### Write Pattern (via Stripe)
+```
+Frontend → API → Stripe → Webhook → Database
+                    ↓
+              (Direct update for instant feedback)
+```
+
+**Examples:**
+- Create subscription → API creates checkout → Stripe processes → Webhook syncs
+- Cancel subscription → API updates Stripe → immediately updates DB → Webhook confirms
+- Manage subscription → Opens Stripe portal → Stripe handles → Webhook syncs
+
+## 🗄️ Database Schema
+
+### Tables
+
+**stripe_customers**
+```sql
+- id (PK)
+- user_id (FK → auth.users) 
+- stripe_customer_id (unique)
+- email
+```
+
+**stripe_subscriptions**
+```sql
+- id (PK)
+- user_id (FK → auth.users)
+- stripe_customer_id (FK)
+- status (active, trialing, canceled, etc.)
+- price_id
+- current_period_start
+- current_period_end
+- cancel_at_period_end
+```
+
+**stripe_products**
+```sql
+- id (PK)
+- name ("Standard")
+- active
+- description
+```
+
+**stripe_prices**
+```sql
+- id (PK)
+- product_id (FK)
+- unit_amount (in cents)
+- currency
+- interval (month, year)
+```
+
+**profiles** (extended)
+```sql
+- is_paying (boolean) ← Auto-updated by trigger
+- subscription_tier (text) ← Auto-updated by trigger
+```
+
+### RLS Policies
+
+```sql
+-- Users see only their own data
+stripe_customers: WHERE auth.uid() = user_id
+stripe_subscriptions: WHERE auth.uid() = user_id
+
+-- Products/prices are public (for pricing page)
+stripe_products: WHERE true
+stripe_prices: WHERE true
+```
+
+### Automatic Triggers
+
+```sql
+-- When subscription changes → Update profile
+CREATE TRIGGER update_profile_on_subscription_change
+  AFTER INSERT OR UPDATE ON stripe_subscriptions
+  → Updates profiles.is_paying and profiles.subscription_tier
+```
+
+## 🔄 Webhook Flow
+
+### 1. Stripe Event Occurs
+```
+User subscribes → Stripe creates subscription
+```
+
+### 2. Webhook Sent
+```
+POST https://your-api.com/api/v1/stripe/webhook
+Headers: stripe-signature
+Body: {
+  type: "customer.subscription.created",
+  data: { object: { ...subscription } }
+}
+```
+
+### 3. API Processes Event
+```typescript
+// stripe-webhook.ts
+1. Verify signature
+2. Parse event type
+3. Call appropriate database function
+```
+
+### 4. Database Function Executes
+```sql
+-- handle_stripe_subscription_upsert()
+1. Upsert subscription record
+2. Trigger fires automatically
+3. Profile updated (is_paying = true)
+```
+
+### 5. Frontend Sees Update
+```typescript
+// Next time query runs
+const { data: subscription } = useSubscription();
+// Returns updated data with RLS filtering
+```
+
+## 🔐 Security Model
+
+### Frontend → Database
+```
+Supabase Client (anon key)
+  → RLS Policies
+    → Only own user_id data
+      → Read-only access
+```
+
+**Frontend CANNOT:**
+- ❌ Modify subscription data
+- ❌ See other users' subscriptions
+- ❌ Delete customer records
+
+**Frontend CAN:**
+- ✅ Read own subscription
+- ✅ Read public products/prices
+- ✅ Call API endpoints for actions
+
+### API → Database
+```
+Supabase Client (service role key)
+  → Full database access
+    → Used only in webhook handlers
+      → Validates Stripe signature first
+```
+
+**API CAN:**
+- ✅ Insert/update via webhook functions
+- ✅ Query any subscription for operations
+- ✅ Execute privileged database functions
+
+### Webhook → Database
+```
+Stripe Webhook
+  → Signature verified
+    → Service role functions
+      → Bypass RLS for writes
+```
+
+## 🎯 Why This Architecture?
+
+### No Foreign Data Wrappers
+**Reasons:**
+- ❌ Extra complexity
+- ❌ Requires Vault configuration
+- ❌ API rate limits apply
+- ❌ Slower than cached data
+- ✅ **Webhooks provide all needed data**
+
+### Direct Supabase Access
+**Benefits:**
+- ⚡ **Performance**: No API hop for reads
+- 🔒 **Security**: RLS enforces data access
+- 🎯 **Simplicity**: Standard Supabase patterns
+- 📊 **Real-time**: Can use Supabase subscriptions
+- 🔌 **Offline**: Can cache subscription data
+
+### API for Actions Only
+**Why:**
+- 🔑 **Secret management**: API has Stripe secret key
+- ✅ **Validation**: Server-side validation before Stripe calls
+- 🎫 **Checkout**: Creates secure checkout sessions
+- 🔐 **Signatures**: Verifies webhook signatures
+
+## 📈 Performance Characteristics
+
+### Query Performance
+
+**Check if user is paying:**
+```typescript
+user.is_paying  // Instant (already in memory)
+```
+
+**Get subscription details:**
+```typescript
+useSubscription()  
+// ~50-100ms (Supabase query with join)
+// Cached for 5 minutes
+```
+
+**Start checkout:**
+```typescript
+useCreateCheckoutSession()
+// ~500-1000ms (API → Stripe → Redirect)
+```
+
+### Webhook Processing
+
+**Typical webhook flow:**
+```
+Stripe event → API receives → DB function → Trigger
+Total: ~100-300ms
+```
+
+**Database trigger:**
+```
+Subscription updated → Profile updated
+Total: ~10-50ms
+```
+
+## 🎨 Frontend Usage Patterns
+
+### Pattern 1: Simple Payment Check
+```typescript
+const user = useUser();
+if (!user.is_paying) {
+  return <PaywallComponent />;
+}
+return <PremiumFeature />;
+```
+
+### Pattern 2: Detailed Subscription Info
+```typescript
+const { data: subscription, isLoading } = useSubscription();
+
+if (isLoading) return <Spinner />;
+if (!subscription) return <UpgradePrompt />;
+
+return (
+  <div>
+    Status: {subscription.status}
+    Renews: {subscription.current_period_end}
+    {subscription.cancel_at_period_end && <CancellationWarning />}
+  </div>
+);
+```
+
+### Pattern 3: Pricing Page
+```typescript
+const { data: prices } = useStripePrices();
+const { mutate: checkout } = useCreateCheckoutSession();
+
+return prices?.map(price => (
+  <PriceCard
+    key={price.id}
+    amount={price.unit_amount}
+    interval={price.interval}
+    onSelect={() => checkout({ priceId: price.id })}
+  />
+));
+```
+
+## 🔧 Maintenance
+
+### Syncing Products/Prices
+
+Products and prices are synced automatically via webhooks when you:
+1. Create/update product in Stripe Dashboard
+2. Webhook fires → Syncs to `stripe_products` table
+3. Frontend queries updated pricing
+
+### Monitoring Subscriptions
+
+```sql
+-- View current user's active subscription (secure, RLS-compliant)
+SELECT * FROM get_my_active_subscription();
+
+-- Check for subscription status distribution (requires direct stripe schema access)
+SELECT 
+  status::text,
+  COUNT(*) as count
+FROM stripe.subscriptions
+GROUP BY status;
+
+-- Find subscriptions ending soon (admin query)
+SELECT 
+  p.email,
+  si.current_period_end
+FROM stripe.subscriptions s
+JOIN stripe.customers c ON c.id = s.customer
+JOIN stripe.subscription_items si ON si.subscription = s.id
+JOIN profiles p ON p.id = (c.metadata->>'user_id')::uuid
+WHERE to_timestamp(si.current_period_end) < NOW() + INTERVAL '7 days'
+  AND s.status::text = 'active';
+```
+
+## 📝 Summary
+
+**This architecture provides:**
+
+1. ✅ **Simple**: No wrappers, just webhooks + RLS
+2. ✅ **Fast**: Direct Supabase queries for reads
+3. ✅ **Secure**: RLS + signature verification
+4. ✅ **Maintainable**: Standard patterns
+5. ✅ **Scalable**: Handles thousands of subscriptions
+6. ✅ **Cost-effective**: Fewer API calls
+7. ✅ **Developer-friendly**: TypeScript + React hooks
+
+**Trade-offs:**
+- ⏱️ Eventual consistency (webhook delay ~1-5 seconds)
+- 🔄 Requires webhook endpoint to be reliable
+- 📦 More database tables vs API-only approach
+
+**Verdict:** ✅ Optimal for SaaS apps with subscription model
+
+---
+
+**Implementation Files:**
+- Database: `sql/35_stripe_wrappers.sql`, `sql/36_stripe_webhooks.sql`
+- Backend: `api/src/stripe.ts`, `api/src/stripe-webhook.ts`
+- Frontend: `apps/main/src/hooks/stripe.ts`, `apps/main/src/components/SubscriptionCard.tsx`
+- Types: `packages/shared/src/types/stripe.types.ts`

+# 🎉 Final Stripe Setup - Using Official Library
+
+## Overview
+
+We're using the official **@supabase/stripe-sync-engine** library from Supabase.  
+This handles ALL webhook processing automatically - we just add custom profile integration on top!
+
+**Repository**: [https://github.com/supabase/stripe-sync-engine](https://github.com/supabase/stripe-sync-engine)
+
+## 📦 What's Implemented
+
+### ✅ Files That Matter
+
+**Backend:**
+
+- `api/src/stripe.ts` - Webhook + action endpoints (uses StripeSync)
+- `sql/35_stripe_wrappers.sql` - Profile integration & RLS policies
+
+**Frontend:**
+
+- `apps/main/src/hooks/stripe.ts` - React hooks (queries Supabase directly)
+- `apps/main/src/components/SubscriptionCard.tsx` - Ready-to-use UI
+
+**Documentation:**
+
+- `docs/STRIPE_WITH_SYNC_ENGINE.md` - Main guide ⭐
+- `docs/TESTING_WITH_FAKE_ACCOUNTS.md` - Testing guide
+
+### ❌ Files Deleted (Not Needed Anymore)
+
+- ~~`api/src/stripe-webhook.ts`~~ - Library handles this!
+- ~~`sql/36_stripe_webhooks.sql`~~ - Library handles this!
+
+## 🚀 Setup Steps
+
+### 1. Install Library
+
+```bash
+cd api
+npm install @supabase/stripe-sync-engine
+```
+
+✅ Already done!
+
+### 2. Run Library Migrations
+
+The library needs to create its tables first. Either:
+
+**Option A: Via Code** (recommended for first time)
+
+```typescript
+import { runMigrations } from "@supabase/stripe-sync-engine";
+
+await runMigrations({
+  databaseUrl:
+    "postgresql://postgres:[password]@db.[project].supabase.co:5432/postgres",
+});
+```
+
+**Option B: Manually**
+Copy migrations from `node_modules/@supabase/stripe-sync-engine/dist/migrations/*.sql` and run in Supabase SQL Editor.
+
+### 3. Run Custom SQL
+
+After library migrations, run:
+
+```sql
+\i sql/35_stripe_wrappers.sql
+```
+
+This adds:
+
+- `user_id` columns for RLS
+- `profiles.is_paying` and `subscription_tier` fields
+- Automatic triggers
+- Helper functions
+
+### 4. Configure Environment
+
+**API (`.env`):**
+
+```env
+STRIPE_SECRET_KEY=sk_test_xxxxx
+STRIPE_WEBHOOK_SECRET=whsec_xxxxx
+DATABASE_URL=postgresql://postgres:[password]@db.[project].supabase.co:5432/postgres
+FRONTEND_URL=http://localhost:5173
+```
+
+**Frontend (`apps/main/.env`):**
+
+```env
+VITE_STRIPE_PUBLISHABLE_KEY=pk_test_xxxxx
+VITE_STRIPE_STANDARD_MONTHLY_PRICE_ID=price_xxxxx
+```
+
+### 5. Create "Standard" Product in Stripe
+
+1. Stripe Dashboard → **Test Mode** → Products
+2. Add product: **"Standard"**
+3. Monthly price: €9.99/month
+4. Copy the `price_id`
+5. Add to frontend `.env`
+
+### 6. Configure Webhook
+
+1. Stripe Dashboard → Developers → Webhooks
+2. Add endpoint: `https://your-api.com/api/v1/stripe/webhook`
+3. Select **all events** (library handles them all!)
+4. Copy signing secret → Add to API `.env`
+
+### 7. Add UI to Settings
+
+In `apps/main/src/pages/settings.tsx`:
+
+```typescript
+import { SubscriptionCard } from "../components/SubscriptionCard";
+
+// Add in your cards section:
+<SubscriptionCard />;
+```
+
+## 🎯 How It Works
+
+### Webhook Flow
+
+```
+Stripe event → API webhook endpoint → StripeSync library → Database tables → Triggers → Profile updated
+```
+
+### Read Flow (From Frontend)
+
+```
+Frontend → Supabase Client → RLS policies → stripe_subscriptions → User's data
+```
+
+**No custom webhook code needed!** The library handles everything.
+
+## 🧪 Testing
+
+### Quick Test
+
+1. **Start API**: `cd api && npm run dev`
+2. **Start Frontend**: `cd apps/main && npm run dev`
+3. **Start Webhook Forwarding**:
+
+   ```bash
+   stripe listen --forward-to http://localhost:3000/api/v1/stripe/webhook
+   ```
+
+4. **Create test account**: `test@example.com`
+5. **Subscribe**: Use card `4242 4242 4242 4242`
+6. **Verify**: Check `user.is_paying === true`
+
+## 📊 What Tables Are Created
+
+### By stripe-sync-engine Library:
+
+- `stripe_customers`
+- `stripe_subscriptions`
+- `stripe_subscription_items`
+- `stripe_products`
+- `stripe_prices`
+- `stripe_invoices`
+- `stripe_charges`
+- `stripe_payment_intents`
+- `stripe_payment_methods`
+- ... and 30+ more!
+
+### By Our SQL (35_stripe_wrappers.sql):
+
+- Adds `user_id` to customers/subscriptions
+- Adds `is_paying` to profiles
+- Adds `subscription_tier` to profiles
+- Creates RLS policies
+- Creates triggers
+- Creates helper functions
+
+## ⚡ Key Advantages
+
+| Aspect         | Before         | After (with library) |
+| -------------- | -------------- | -------------------- |
+| Webhook code   | 267 lines      | ~15 lines            |
+| Event coverage | 8 events       | 100+ events          |
+| Maintenance    | You            | Supabase             |
+| Schema updates | Manual         | Automatic            |
+| Backfilling    | Custom scripts | Built-in             |
+| Battle-tested  | No             | ✅ Yes               |
+
+## 🎓 Using the Library Features
+
+### Backfill Historical Data
+
+```typescript
+// Sync all existing Stripe data
+await stripeSync.syncBackfill({ object: "all" });
+
+// Or sync specific objects
+await stripeSync.syncProducts();
+await stripeSync.syncCustomers();
+await stripeSync.syncSubscriptions();
+```
+
+### Sync Single Entity
+
+```typescript
+// Sync a specific customer
+await stripeSync.syncSingleEntity("cus_xxxxx");
+
+// Sync a specific subscription
+await stripeSync.syncSingleEntity("sub_xxxxx");
+```
+
+## ✅ Success Criteria
+
+Your integration works when:
+
+1. ✅ Library installed: `npm list @supabase/stripe-sync-engine`
+2. ✅ Library migrations run
+3. ✅ Custom SQL (35) run
+4. ✅ Environment variables configured
+5. ✅ Webhook endpoint configured in Stripe
+6. ✅ Test subscription creates data in `stripe_subscriptions`
+7. ✅ `profiles.is_paying` updates automatically
+8. ✅ Frontend shows subscription status
+9. ✅ RLS policies work (users see only their data)
+
+## 🐛 Troubleshooting
+
+### Library Not Found
+
+```bash
+cd api && npm install @supabase/stripe-sync-engine
+```
+
+### Migrations Failing
+
+Make sure to run **library migrations first**, then `sql/35_stripe_wrappers.sql`
+
+### user_id Not Populating
+
+Ensure customer is created with metadata:
+
+```typescript

 ## Overview
 
 Complete Stripe integration for Xtablo with a single "Standard" subscription plan.
-Uses custom Node.js API (Hono) with Supabase database for data storage.
+
+**Architecture:**
+
+- ✅ **Webhook-based**: Stripe webhooks sync data to Supabase
+- ✅ **Direct Supabase access**: Frontend queries Supabase directly (no API for reads)
+- ✅ **API for actions**: Checkout and subscription management via Node.js API
+- ✅ **RLS-protected**: Row Level Security ensures data privacy

 ## 🔄 Data Flow
 
+### Subscription Creation Flow
+
 1. **User Clicks "Subscribe to Standard"**
-   → Frontend calls `/api/v1/stripe/create-checkout-session`
-   
+   → Frontend calls `useCreateCheckoutSession({ priceId })`
+   → Calls API: `POST /api/v1/stripe/create-checkout-session`
 2. **API Creates Checkout**
-   → Creates/retrieves Stripe customer
-   → Creates checkout session
+   → Creates/retrieves Stripe customer (with `user_id` in metadata)
+   → Creates Stripe checkout session
    → Returns checkout URL
+   → Frontend redirects to Stripe
 
 3. **User Completes Payment**
    → Stripe processes payment
    → Fires `customer.subscription.created` webhook
 
 4. **Webhook Received**
-   → API endpoint `/api/v1/stripe/webhook` receives event
+   → API endpoint `POST /api/v1/stripe/webhook` receives event
    → Verifies signature
-   → Calls `handle_stripe_subscription_upsert()`
+   → Calls `handle_stripe_subscription_upsert()` database function
 
 5. **Database Updated**
-   → Inserts into `stripe_subscriptions`
-   → Trigger updates `profiles.is_paying = true` and `subscription_tier = 'standard'`
+   → Function inserts into `stripe_subscriptions`
+   → Trigger fires: `update_profile_on_subscription_change`

-6. **Frontend Updates**
-   → User's profile automatically shows paying status
-   → `user.is_paying = true`
-   → `user.subscription_tier = 'standard'`
+6. **Frontend Queries Supabase**
+   → `useSubscription()` queries `stripe_subscriptions` table directly
+   → `useUser()` shows updated `is_paying` and `subscription_tier`
+   → UI automatically reflects new status
+
+### Read Flow (No API Needed)
+
+```
+Frontend → Supabase Client → RLS Policies → stripe_subscriptions table → User's data

+# Migration 36: Fix Stripe Subscription Period Dates
+
+## Overview
+
+This migration fixes a critical issue with subscription period tracking and simplifies the profile subscription model.
+
+## Problem
+
+The previous implementation incorrectly used `subscriptions.current_period_end` to determine billing cycle end dates. However, in Stripe's data model:
+- `subscriptions.current_period_end` = End of the subscription (NULL for ongoing subscriptions)
+- `subscription_items.current_period_end` = End of the current billing cycle (the actual monthly due date)
+
+## Solution
+
+### Database Changes
+
+#### 1. New Enum Type
+Created `subscription_plan` enum with values:
+- `none` - Free user (no subscription)
+- `trial` - User on trial period
+- `standard` - Paid subscriber
+
+#### 2. Profile Table Updates
+**Removed:**
+- `is_paying` (boolean) - Replaced with plan enum
+- `subscription_tier` (text) - Replaced with plan enum
+
+**Added:**
+- `plan` (subscription_plan enum) - Single source of truth for subscription status
+
+#### 3. Updated Functions
+
+**`is_paying_user(user_uuid)`**
+- Now uses `subscription_items.current_period_end` for accurate billing cycle tracking
+- Checks if subscription is active/trialing AND current period has not ended
+
+**`get_user_subscription_status(user_uuid)`**
+- Returns subscription data including:
+  - `current_period_start` and `current_period_end` from `subscription_items`
+  - `price_id` from `subscription_items.price`
+  - Computed `plan` enum based on subscription status
+
+**`get_user_stripe_subscriptions()`**
+- Updated to join with `subscription_items` table
+- Returns `current_period_start/end` from subscription items
+- Includes `price_id` and `quantity` from subscription items
+
+**`update_profile_subscription_status()`**
+- Trigger function updated to set `plan` enum instead of `is_paying` and `subscription_tier`
+- Logic prioritizes: trial > standard > none
+- Now correctly uses `subscription_items.current_period_end`
+
+#### 4. New Trigger
+Added trigger on `subscription_items` table:
+- `update_profile_on_subscription_item_change`
+- Ensures profile updates when billing cycles change
+
+#### 5. Updated Views
+
+**`active_subscriptions` view**
+- Now joins with `subscription_items` for accurate period dates
+- Includes `plan` column from profiles
+- Uses `subscription_items.current_period_end` for filtering
+
+### TypeScript Type Updates
+
+#### Database Types (`packages/shared/src/types/database.types.ts`)
+
+**Added enum:**
+```typescript
+subscription_plan: "none" | "trial" | "standard"
+```
+
+**Updated `profiles` table type:**
+```typescript
+{
+  avatar_url: string | null
+  email: string | null
+  first_name: string | null
+  id: string
+  is_temporary: boolean
+  last_name: string | null
+  last_signed_in: string | null
+  name: string | null
+  plan: Database["public"]["Enums"]["subscription_plan"]  // NEW
+  short_user_id: string
+  // REMOVED: is_paying, subscription_tier
+}
+```
+
+### Frontend Updates
+
+#### Component Changes
+
+**`SubscriptionCard.tsx`**
+```typescript
+// OLD:
+const isPaying = user.is_paying;
+
+// NEW:
+const isPaying = user.plan !== "none";
+```
+
+**`stripe.ts` hooks**
+```typescript
+// OLD:
+return { data: user.is_paying, isLoading: false };
+
+// NEW:
+return { data: user.plan !== "none", isLoading: false };
+```
+
+#### Test File Updates
+All test files updated to use:
+```typescript
+plan: "none" as const
+```
+
+Instead of:
+```typescript
+is_paying: false,
+subscription_tier: "free"
+```
+
+## Files Changed
+
+### SQL
+- ✅ `sql/36_fix_stripe_subscription_dates.sql` (NEW)
+
+### TypeScript Types
+- ✅ `packages/shared/src/types/database.types.ts`
+
+### Frontend Components
+- ✅ `apps/main/src/components/SubscriptionCard.tsx`
+- ✅ `apps/main/src/hooks/stripe.ts`
+
+### Tests

+- ✅ `apps/main/src/providers/UserStoreProvider.test.tsx`
+- ✅ `apps/main/src/utils/testHelpers.tsx`
+
+## Migration Steps
+
+1. **Run the SQL migration:**
+   ```sql
+   \i sql/36_fix_stripe_subscription_dates.sql
+   ```
+
+2. **The migration will:**
+   - Create `subscription_plan` enum type
+   - Drop `is_paying` and `subscription_tier` columns from profiles
+   - Add `plan` column with default `'none'`
+   - Update all functions to use `subscription_items.current_period_end`
+   - Create trigger on `subscription_items` table
+   - Update views to use correct period dates
+
+3. **Existing data handling:**
+   - All users will default to `plan = 'none'`
+   - The triggers will automatically update plans when subscriptions sync
+   - Next webhook from Stripe will correct the plan for paying users
+
+## Benefits
+
+1. **Accurate Billing Dates**: Uses `subscription_items.current_period_end` for actual monthly due dates
+2. **Simplified Model**: Single `plan` enum instead of two separate fields
+3. **Type Safety**: Enum type prevents invalid values
+4. **Clearer Logic**: `plan` is more intuitive than `is_paying` + `subscription_tier`
+5. **Automatic Updates**: Triggers on both `subscriptions` and `subscription_items` ensure data consistency
+
+## Data Flow
+
+### Before
+```
+Stripe Webhook → subscriptions.current_period_end (NULL) 
+  → is_paying = true (wrong logic)
+```
+
+### After
+```
+Stripe Webhook → subscription_items.current_period_end (actual date)
+  → plan = 'standard' | 'trial' | 'none'
+```
+
+## Testing
+
+After migration:
+1. ✅ TypeScript compilation passes
+2. ✅ All test files updated and passing
+3. ✅ Plan enum properly constrained
+4. ✅ Views and functions return correct period dates
+
+## Rollback
+
+If needed, you can rollback by:
+1. Dropping the new trigger on `subscription_items`
+2. Dropping the `plan` column
+3. Re-adding `is_paying` and `subscription_tier` columns
+4. Reverting function definitions to use `subscriptions.current_period_end`
+
+However, this is not recommended as the old implementation had incorrect logic.
+
+---
+
+**Status**: ✅ Complete  
+**Date**: 2025-11-03  
+**Breaking Changes**: Yes (profile table schema changed)  
+**Frontend Changes**: Yes (component and hook updates)

+# Stripe Security Fix - Migration 37
+
+## Security Issue Fixed
+
+**Issue**: The `public.active_subscriptions` view was defined as a regular view that exposed all users' subscription data. Without proper Row Level Security (RLS) policies, this view could potentially be queried by any authenticated user to see other users' subscription information.
+
+**Severity**: High - Potential data exposure
+
+## Changes Made
+
+### Migration 37: `sql/37_secure_active_subscriptions.sql`
+
+1. **Removed insecure view**
+   - Dropped `public.active_subscriptions` view
+
+2. **Added secure function**
+   - `get_my_active_subscription()` - Returns only the authenticated user's active subscription
+     - Uses `auth.uid()` to filter by current user
+     - Uses `SECURITY DEFINER` with explicit `search_path` for security
+     - Granted to `authenticated` role
+     - Returns fields: subscription_id, user_id, user_email, first_name, last_name, status, current_period_start, current_period_end, cancel_at_period_end, product_name, currency, unit_amount, billing_interval, plan
+
+## Migration Instructions
+
+### 1. Run the migration
+
+```bash
+# Connect to your Supabase database and run:
+psql -U postgres -d postgres -f sql/37_secure_active_subscriptions.sql
+```
+
+Or via Supabase Dashboard:
+- Go to SQL Editor
+- Copy and paste the contents of `sql/37_secure_active_subscriptions.sql`
+- Run the migration
+
+### 2. Regenerate TypeScript types
+
+After running the migration, regenerate your database types:
+
+```bash
+# For API
+supabase gen types typescript --project-id YOUR_PROJECT_ID > api/src/database.types.ts
+
+# For packages/shared
+supabase gen types typescript --project-id YOUR_PROJECT_ID > packages/shared/src/types/database.types.ts
+
+# For xtablo-expo
+supabase gen types typescript --project-id YOUR_PROJECT_ID > xtablo-expo/lib/database.types.ts
+```
+
+### 3. Update any code that references `active_subscriptions`
+
+**If you were querying the view directly** (which should be avoided):
+
+```typescript
+// ❌ Old - INSECURE (showed all users' data)
+const { data } = await supabase
+  .from('active_subscriptions')
+  .select('*');
+
+// ✅ New - SECURE (only shows current user's data)
+const { data } = await supabase
+  .rpc('get_my_active_subscription');
+
+// Returns: {
+//   subscription_id, user_id, user_email, first_name, last_name,
+//   status, current_period_start, current_period_end,
+//   cancel_at_period_end, product_name, currency, unit_amount,
+//   billing_interval, plan
+// }
+```
+
+## Current Application Status
+
+✅ **Good news**: The application code already uses the secure `get_user_stripe_subscriptions()` function instead of directly querying the view, so no application code changes are needed!
+
+The view was only used for:
+- Documentation examples
+- Database type definitions (auto-generated)
+- Potential ad-hoc queries
+
+## Security Best Practices
+
+### Why use functions instead of views for sensitive data?
+
+1. **Explicit access control** - Functions can check `auth.uid()` to ensure users only see their own data
+2. **Permission granularity** - Can grant execute permissions to specific roles
+3. **Security definer** - Functions run with specific privileges and search paths
+4. **Audit trail** - Function calls can be logged more easily than view queries
+
+### SECURITY DEFINER best practices
+
+When using `SECURITY DEFINER` on functions:
+
+1. **Always set search_path** - Prevents SQL injection via schema manipulation
+   ```sql
+   set search_path = public, stripe
+   ```
+
+2. **Always validate inputs** - Check `auth.uid()` and other user inputs
+   ```sql
+   where (c.metadata->>'user_id')::uuid = auth.uid()
+   ```
+
+3. **Minimal permissions** - Only grant execute to roles that need it
+   ```sql
+   grant execute on function public.get_my_active_subscription() to authenticated;
+   ```
+
+4. **Avoid dynamic SQL** - Use parameterized queries, not string concatenation
+
+## Testing
+
+### Test user access (should work)
+
+```sql
+-- As an authenticated user, get your own subscription
+SELECT * FROM get_my_active_subscription();
+
+-- Should return your subscription or empty result if no active subscription
+-- Should only show YOUR data, never other users' data
+```
+
+### Test in your application
+
+```typescript
+// In your React component
+const { data: subscription } = await supabase
+  .rpc('get_my_active_subscription');
+
+console.log(subscription);
+// Should show your subscription with all fields:
+// billing_interval, product_name, status, etc.
+```

+# Stripe Testing Guide - Complete Walkthrough
+
+This guide shows you how to test the entire Stripe integration with fake accounts and test data.
+
+## 🎯 Overview
+
+We'll test:
+
+1. Creating test users in your app
+2. Subscribing with Stripe test cards
+3. Verifying webhook processing
+4. Testing subscription management
+5. Checking database updates
+
+## 📋 Prerequisites
+
+- [ ] Database migrations run (35 & 36)
+- [ ] API running locally
+- [ ] Frontend running locally
+- [ ] Stripe test mode keys configured
+- [ ] Stripe CLI installed (optional but recommended)
+
+## 🔧 Setup for Testing
+
+### 1. Use Stripe Test Mode
+
+**Important**: Always use **test mode** keys for development:
+
+```env
+# API .env
+STRIPE_SECRET_KEY=sk_test_xxxxxxxxxxxxx  # Test key (not live!)
+STRIPE_WEBHOOK_SECRET=whsec_test_xxxxx   # Test webhook secret
+
+# Frontend .env
+VITE_STRIPE_PUBLISHABLE_KEY=pk_test_xxxxxxxxxxxxx  # Test publishable key
+```
+
+### 2. Create "Standard" Product in Stripe (Test Mode)
+
+1. Go to Stripe Dashboard → Switch to **Test Mode** (toggle in top-right)
+2. Navigate to **Products**
+3. Click **Add product**
+4. Fill in:
+   - Name: **Standard**
+   - Description: Standard plan for Xtablo
+5. Add pricing:
+   - **Monthly**: €9.99/month
+   - **Yearly** (optional): €99/year
+6. **Copy the price ID** (e.g., `price_1234567890abcdef`)
+7. Update your frontend `.env`:
+   ```env
+   VITE_STRIPE_STANDARD_MONTHLY_PRICE_ID=price_1234567890abcdef
+   ```
+
+### 3. Set Up Local Webhook Testing
+
+**Option A: Stripe CLI (Recommended)**
+
+```bash
+# Install Stripe CLI
+brew install stripe/stripe-cli/stripe
+
+# Login to your Stripe account
+stripe login
+
+# Forward webhooks to your local API
+stripe listen --forward-to http://localhost:3000/api/v1/stripe/webhook
+```
+
+This will give you a webhook secret like `whsec_xxxxx`. Use this in your API `.env`.
+
+**Option B: Use Stripe Dashboard Webhooks**
+
+For production-like testing, add webhook endpoint in Stripe Dashboard pointing to your deployed API.
+
+## 🧪 Testing Flow - Step by Step
+
+### Step 1: Create Test User Account
+
+1. **Sign up** with a test email (e.g., `test@example.com`)
+2. **Verify email** (check your inbox or skip if auto-confirm enabled)
+3. **Login** to your app
+4. Navigate to **Settings** page
+
+### Step 2: Add SubscriptionCard to Settings (If Not Already)
+
+```typescript
+// In apps/main/src/pages/settings.tsx
+import { SubscriptionCard } from "../components/SubscriptionCard";
+
+// Add in the cards section:
+<SubscriptionCard />;
+```
+
+### Step 3: Test Free User State
+
+You should see:
+
+- ✅ "Plan Gratuit" badge with "Gratuit" status
+- ✅ "Passer à Standard" button
+- ✅ User profile shows: `is_paying: false`, `subscription_tier: 'free'`
+
+**Verify in Database:**
+
+```sql
+SELECT id, email, is_paying, subscription_tier
+FROM profiles
+WHERE email = 'test@example.com';
+-- Should show: is_paying = false, subscription_tier = 'free'
+```
+
+### Step 4: Test Subscription Creation
+
+1. Click **"Passer à Standard"** button
+2. You'll be redirected to Stripe Checkout
+3. Fill in test card details:
+
+**Test Card Information:**
+
+```
+Card Number: 4242 4242 4242 4242
+Expiry: Any future date (e.g., 12/34)
+CVC: Any 3 digits (e.g., 123)
+ZIP: Any 5 digits (e.g., 12345)
+Name: Test User
+Email: test@example.com
+```
+
+4. Click **Subscribe**
+5. You'll be redirected back to your app with `?success=true`
+
+### Step 5: Verify Webhook Processing
+
+**Watch in Terminal:**
+
+```bash
+# If using Stripe CLI, you'll see:
+stripe listen --forward-to http://localhost:3000/api/v1/stripe/webhook
+
+# You should see events like:
+✓ customer.created
+✓ customer.subscription.created
+✓ invoice.created
+✓ payment_intent.created
+```
+
+**Check API Logs:**
+Look for:
+
+```
+Processing Stripe webhook: customer.subscription.created
+```
+
+**Verify in Database:**
+
+```sql
+-- Check customer created
+SELECT * FROM stripe_customers WHERE email = 'test@example.com';
+
+-- Check subscription created
+SELECT * FROM stripe_subscriptions
+WHERE user_id = (SELECT id FROM profiles WHERE email = 'test@example.com');
+
+-- Check profile updated
+SELECT is_paying, subscription_tier
+FROM profiles
+WHERE email = 'test@example.com';
+-- Should show: is_paying = true, subscription_tier = 'standard'
+```
+
+### Step 6: Verify Frontend Updates
+
+Refresh the settings page. You should see:
+
+- ✅ "Actif" badge (green)
+- ✅ "Plan Standard"
+- ✅ Renewal date displayed
+- ✅ "Gérer l'abonnement" button
+- ✅ "Annuler" button
+
+**Check in Console:**
+
+```typescript
+// In browser console:
+console.log(user.is_paying); // Should be true
+console.log(user.subscription_tier); // Should be 'standard'
+```
+
+### Step 7: Test Customer Portal
+
+1. Click **"Gérer l'abonnement"**
+2. Opens Stripe Customer Portal
+3. You can:
+   - Update payment method
+   - View invoices
+   - Cancel subscription
+   - Update billing info
+
+### Step 8: Test Subscription Cancellation
+
+**From Your App:**
+
+1. Click **"Annuler"** button in SubscriptionCard
+2. Confirms cancellation at period end
+3. UI updates to show "Annulation en cours"
+4. Shows "Réactiver l'abonnement" button
+
+**Verify Webhook:**
+
+```bash
+# Should see in Stripe CLI:
+✓ customer.subscription.updated
+```
+
+**Verify in Database:**
+
+```sql
+SELECT cancel_at_period_end, current_period_end
+FROM stripe_subscriptions
+WHERE user_id = (SELECT id FROM profiles WHERE email = 'test@example.com');
+-- cancel_at_period_end should be true
+```
+
+### Step 9: Test Subscription Reactivation
+
+1. Click **"Réactiver l'abonnement"** button
+2. Subscription continues normally
+3. UI returns to active state
+
+**Verify in Database:**
+
+```sql
+SELECT cancel_at_period_end
+FROM stripe_subscriptions
+WHERE user_id = (SELECT id FROM profiles WHERE email = 'test@example.com');
+-- cancel_at_period_end should be false
+```

+Requires auth (3DS):   4000 0027 6000 3184
+```
+
+### Test Subscription States
+
+**Active Subscription:**
+
+1. Complete checkout with `4242 4242 4242 4242`
+2. Verify `status = 'active'`
+
+**Past Due (Failed Payment):**
+
+1. Use Stripe CLI:
+   ```bash
+   stripe trigger customer.subscription.updated \
+     --add customer_subscription:status=past_due
+   ```
+2. Check database: `status = 'past_due'`
+
+**Trial Period:**
+
+1. Create price with trial in Stripe Dashboard
+2. Subscribe with test card
+3. Verify `status = 'trialing'`
+
+### Test Multiple Test Users
+
+Create multiple test users to verify isolation:
+
+```
+test1@example.com → Subscribe
+test2@example.com → Stay free
+test3@example.com → Subscribe then cancel
+```
+
+Verify each user only sees their own subscription data.
+
+## 🔍 Verification Checklist
+
+After each test, verify:
+
+### Database
+
+```sql
+-- Check user's subscription
+SELECT
+  p.email,
+  p.is_paying,
+  p.subscription_tier,
+  s.status,
+  s.current_period_end,
+  s.cancel_at_period_end
+FROM profiles p
+LEFT JOIN stripe_subscriptions s ON s.user_id = p.id
+WHERE p.email = 'test@example.com';
+```
+
+### API Endpoints
+
+```bash
+# Test is-paying endpoint
+curl http://localhost:3000/api/v1/stripe/is-paying \
+  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN"
+
+# Test subscription endpoint
+curl http://localhost:3000/api/v1/stripe/subscription \
+  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN"
+
+# Test prices endpoint (no auth needed)
+curl http://localhost:3000/api/v1/stripe/prices
+```
+
+### Frontend
+
+```typescript
+// In browser console
+import { useUser } from "./providers/UserStoreProvider";
+const user = useUser();
+console.log({
+  isPaying: user.is_paying,
+  tier: user.subscription_tier,
+});
+```
+

+
+## 🐛 Common Issues & Solutions
+
+### Issue: Webhook not received
+
+**Solution:**
+
+```bash
+# Check Stripe CLI is running
+stripe listen --forward-to http://localhost:3000/api/v1/stripe/webhook
+
+# Check API logs for errors
+# Check Stripe Dashboard → Webhooks for delivery status
+```
+
+### Issue: is_paying not updating
+
+**Solution:**
+
+```sql
+-- Manually trigger the update function
+SELECT update_profile_subscription_status();
+
+-- Or check if trigger exists
+SELECT * FROM pg_trigger WHERE tgname = 'update_profile_on_subscription_change';
+```
+
+### Issue: Customer not found error
+
+**Solution:**
+
+```sql
+-- Verify customer was created
+SELECT * FROM stripe_customers WHERE user_id = 'user-uuid';
+
+-- Create manually if needed
+INSERT INTO stripe_customers (id, user_id, stripe_customer_id, email)
+VALUES ('cus_xxxxx', 'user-uuid', 'cus_xxxxx', 'test@example.com');
+```
+
+### Issue: Checkout session fails
+
+**Check:**
+
+1. Is `STRIPE_SECRET_KEY` set correctly?
+2. Is price ID valid? (Check Stripe Dashboard)
+3. Check API logs for error details
+4. Verify user is authenticated
+
+## 🎮 Interactive Test Script
+
+Run this in your browser console after logging in:
+
+```javascript
+// Check current status
+const checkStatus = async () => {
+  const user = window.__USER__; // Or get from store
+  console.log("Current Status:", {
+    isPaying: user.is_paying,
+    tier: user.subscription_tier,
+  });
+
+  // Fetch latest subscription
+  const response = await fetch("/api/v1/stripe/subscription", {
+    headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${sessionStorage.getItem("token")}` },
+  });
+  const data = await response.json();
+  console.log("Subscription:", data);
+};
+
+checkStatus();
+```

+# Stripe Integration Using @supabase/stripe-sync-engine
+
+## 📦 Overview
+
+We're using the official [@supabase/stripe-sync-engine](https://github.com/supabase/stripe-sync-engine) library to handle all Stripe webhook processing and data syncing.
+
+**Benefits:**
+- ✅ Battle-tested by Supabase
+- ✅ Handles all Stripe webhook events automatically
+- ✅ Automatic schema management
+- ✅ Real-time sync of Stripe data
+- ✅ No custom webhook handlers needed
+
+## 🚀 Quick Setup
+
+### 1. Install Package
+```bash
+cd api
+npm install @supabase/stripe-sync-engine
+```
+
+### 2. Configure Environment
+
+Add to `api/.env`:
+```env
+# Stripe
+STRIPE_SECRET_KEY=sk_test_xxxxx
+STRIPE_WEBHOOK_SECRET=whsec_xxxxx
+
+# Database (direct Postgres connection)
+DATABASE_URL=postgresql://postgres:[password]@db.[project].supabase.co:5432/postgres
+
+# Or use Supabase connection string
+SUPABASE_URL=https://[project].supabase.co
+SUPABASE_SERVICE_ROLE_KEY=your_service_role_key
+```
+
+### 3. Run Library Migrations
+
+The stripe-sync-engine library comes with its own migrations. Run them:
+
+```typescript
+// In a one-time setup script or manually
+import { runMigrations } from '@supabase/stripe-sync-engine';
+
+await runMigrations({ 
+  databaseUrl: process.env.DATABASE_URL 
+});
+```
+
+Or manually execute the migrations from: `node_modules/@supabase/stripe-sync-engine/dist/migrations/*.sql`
+
+### 4. Integration is Already Done! ✅
+
+The webhook handler in `api/src/stripe.ts` is already configured:
+
+```typescript
+import { StripeSync } from "@supabase/stripe-sync-engine";
+
+const stripeSync = new StripeSync({
+  stripeSecretKey: process.env.STRIPE_SECRET_KEY,
+  stripeWebhookSecret: process.env.STRIPE_WEBHOOK_SECRET,
+  schema: "public",
+  poolConfig: {
+    connectionString: process.env.DATABASE_URL,
+    max: 10,
+  },
+  revalidateObjectsViaStripeApi: ['subscription', 'customer'],
+});
+
+// Webhook endpoint
+stripeRouter.post("/webhook", async (c) => {
+  const signature = c.req.header("stripe-signature");
+  const rawBody = await c.req.text();
+  
+  await stripeSync.processWebhook(rawBody, signature);
+  
+  return c.json({ received: true });
+});
+```
+
+## 📊 Database Schema
+
+The library creates these tables in the `public` schema (with `stripe_` prefix):
+
+### Core Tables (Auto-created)
+- `stripe_customers`
+- `stripe_subscriptions`
+- `stripe_subscription_items`
+- `stripe_products`
+- `stripe_prices`
+- `stripe_invoices`
+- `stripe_charges`
+- `stripe_payment_intents`
+- `stripe_payment_methods`
+- And many more...
+
+### Custom Additions (From our SQL)
+We still need our custom `sql/35_stripe_wrappers.sql` for:
+- ✅ `profiles.is_paying` column
+- ✅ `profiles.subscription_tier` column
+- ✅ Triggers to auto-update profile when subscription changes
+- ✅ RLS policies
+- ✅ Helper functions (`is_paying_user()`, etc.)
+
+**Note:** Delete `sql/36_stripe_webhooks.sql` - not needed, library handles webhooks!
+
+## 🔄 How It Works
+
+### 1. Webhook Received
+```
+Stripe → POST /api/v1/stripe/webhook → StripeSync.processWebhook()
+```
+
+### 2. Sync Engine Processes
+```
+1. Verifies signature
+2. Determines event type
+3. Syncs to appropriate table (stripe_subscriptions, stripe_customers, etc.)
+4. Handles all edge cases automatically
+```
+
+### 3. Our Custom Trigger Fires
+```
+stripe_subscriptions updated → Trigger → profiles.is_paying updated
+```
+
+### 4. Frontend Queries
+```
+Frontend → Supabase Client → stripe_subscriptions (RLS) → User's data
+```
+
+## ✨ What the Library Handles
+
+The stripe-sync-engine automatically handles:
+
+- ✅ All webhook event types (100+ events)
+- ✅ Signature verification  
+- ✅ Idempotency (duplicate events)
+- ✅ Foreign key relationships
+- ✅ Deleted entities
+- ✅ List expansion (fetching all items)
+- ✅ Backfilling historical data
+- ✅ Database schema migrations
+- ✅ Connection pooling
+- ✅ Error handling
+
+## 🎯 What We Still Handle
+
+We only need to maintain:
+
+1. **Custom Profile Fields**
+   - `profiles.is_paying`
+   - `profiles.subscription_tier`
+
+2. **Automatic Update Trigger**
+   ```sql
+   CREATE TRIGGER update_profile_on_subscription_change
+     AFTER INSERT OR UPDATE ON stripe_subscriptions
+     → Updates profile fields
+   ```
+
+3. **Action Endpoints** (in `api/src/stripe.ts`)
+   - Create checkout session
+   - Create portal session
+   - Cancel subscription
+   - Reactivate subscription
+
+4. **RLS Policies**
+   - Ensure users only see their own data
+
+## 🧪 Testing
+
+### Test Webhook Processing
+
+```bash
+# Terminal 1: Start your API
+cd api && npm run dev
+
+# Terminal 2: Forward Stripe webhooks
+stripe listen --forward-to http://localhost:3000/api/v1/stripe/webhook
+
+# Terminal 3: Trigger test event
+stripe trigger customer.subscription.created
+```
+
+**Watch the magic:**
+1. Webhook arrives
+2. stripe-sync-engine processes it
+3. Data appears in `stripe_subscriptions` table
+4. Trigger updates `profiles.is_paying`
+5. Frontend sees update immediately
+
+### Verify Sync
+
+```sql
+-- Check synced subscription
+SELECT * FROM stripe_subscriptions;
+
+-- Check synced customer
+SELECT * FROM stripe_customers;
+
+-- Check profile updated
+SELECT email, is_paying, subscription_tier FROM profiles;
+```
+
+## 📝 Environment Variables Needed
+
+```env
+# Required
+STRIPE_SECRET_KEY=sk_test_xxxxx
+STRIPE_WEBHOOK_SECRET=whsec_xxxxx
+DATABASE_URL=postgresql://postgres:password@host:port/db
+
+# Optional (if DATABASE_URL not set)
+SUPABASE_URL=https://xxx.supabase.co
+SUPABASE_SERVICE_ROLE_KEY=eyJxxx...
+```
+
+## 🔧 Backfilling Historical Data
+
+If you have existing Stripe data, backfill it:
+
+```typescript
+// Run this once to sync all existing data
+await stripeSync.syncBackfill({
+  object: 'all', // or specific: 'customer', 'subscription', 'product', etc.
+  created: {
+    gte: 0 // Sync everything from the beginning
+  }
+});
+```
+
+Or sync specific objects:
+```typescript
+await stripeSync.syncProducts();
+await stripeSync.syncPrices();
+await stripeSync.syncCustomers();
+await stripeSync.syncSubscriptions();
+```
+

+# 🎭 Testing Stripe with Fake Accounts - Super Simple Guide
+
+## 🚀 Quick Start (5 Minutes)
+
+### Step 1: Make Sure Stripe Test Mode is ON
+
+In Stripe Dashboard, ensure you're in **TEST MODE** (toggle in top-right corner should say "Test mode").
+
+### Step 2: Create "Standard" Product in Stripe
+
+1. Go to **Products** in Stripe Dashboard
+2. Click **Add product**
+3. Name: `Standard`
+4. Monthly price: `€9.99/month`
+5. Click **Add product**
+6. **Copy the price ID** (looks like `price_1O7...`)
+7. Add to `apps/main/.env`:
+   ```env
+   VITE_STRIPE_STANDARD_MONTHLY_PRICE_ID=price_YOUR_ID_HERE
+   ```
+
+### Step 3: Start Everything
+
+**Terminal 1 - API:**
+```bash
+cd api
+npm run dev
+```
+
+**Terminal 2 - Frontend:**
+```bash
+cd apps/main
+npm run dev
+```
+
+**Terminal 3 - Stripe Webhooks:**
+```bash
+stripe listen --forward-to http://localhost:3000/api/v1/stripe/webhook
+```
+
+Copy the webhook secret (`whsec_...`) and add to `api/.env`:
+```env
+STRIPE_WEBHOOK_SECRET=whsec_YOUR_SECRET_HERE
+```
+
+Restart your API (Terminal 1).
+
+### Step 4: Create Fake Test Accounts
+
+Create 3 test users in your app:
+
+**Account 1: Free User (stays free)**
+```
+Email: free.user@test.com
+Password: TestPass123!
+Name: Free User
+```
+
+**Account 2: Premium User (will subscribe)**
+```
+Email: premium.user@test.com
+Password: TestPass123!
+Name: Premium User
+```
+
+**Account 3: Canceling User (subscribe then cancel)**
+```
+Email: cancel.user@test.com
+Password: TestPass123!
+Name: Cancel User
+```
+
+## 🧪 Testing Scenarios
+
+### Test 1: Free User ✅
+
+1. **Login** as `free.user@test.com`
+2. **Go to Settings**
+3. **You should see:**
+   - Badge: "Gratuit"
+   - Message: "Passez à Standard..."
+   - Button: "Passer à Standard"
+
+**Verify in database:**
+```sql
+SELECT email, is_paying, subscription_tier 
+FROM profiles 
+WHERE email = 'free.user@test.com';
+-- Should show: is_paying = false, subscription_tier = 'free'

+## 🎯 Quick Verification Script
+
+Run this in Supabase SQL Editor after testing:
+
+```sql
+-- View all test users and their subscriptions
+SELECT 
+  p.email,
+  p.is_paying,
+  p.subscription_tier,
+  s.status as sub_status,
+  s.cancel_at_period_end as canceling,
+  to_char(s.current_period_end, 'YYYY-MM-DD') as expires
+FROM profiles p
+LEFT JOIN stripe_subscriptions s ON s.user_id = p.id
+WHERE p.email LIKE '%test.com'
+ORDER BY p.created_at DESC;
+```
+
+Expected results:
+```
+free.user@test.com     | false | free     | null   | null  | null
+premium.user@test.com  | true  | standard | active | false | 2025-12-02

+## 🐛 Troubleshooting
+
+### "Passer à Standard" button doesn't work
+
+**Check:**
+```typescript
+// In browser console:
+console.log(import.meta.env.VITE_STRIPE_STANDARD_MONTHLY_PRICE_ID);
+// Should show: price_xxxxx
+```
+
+If undefined, add to `apps/main/.env` and restart frontend.
+
+### Webhook not received
+
+**Terminal 3 should show:**
+```
+⣾ Ready! Your webhook signing secret is whsec_xxxxx
+```
+
+If not, run:
+```bash
+stripe listen --forward-to http://localhost:3000/api/v1/stripe/webhook
+```
+
+### is_paying not updating
+
+**Check webhook was processed:**
+```bash
+# In Terminal 3, you should see:
+✓ customer.subscription.created [200]
+```
+
+**Manually trigger update:**
+```sql
+-- Force update profile
+UPDATE profiles 
+SET is_paying = true, subscription_tier = 'standard'
+WHERE email = 'premium.user@test.com';
+```
+
+### Can't see SubscriptionCard
+
+**Add to settings.tsx:**
+```typescript
+import { SubscriptionCard } from "../components/SubscriptionCard";
+
+// In the cards section:
+<SubscriptionCard />
+```
