<CheckoutButton /> component

The <CheckoutButton /> component renders a button that opens the checkout drawer.

The <CheckoutButton /> component renders a button that opens the checkout drawer when selected, allowing users to subscribe to a Plan for either their or an Organization. It must be wrapped inside a <Show when="signed-in"> component to ensure the user is authenticated.

Important

Billing regularly introduces new features and UI changes to Clerk's components. If you'd like to remain on a specific version of Clerk's components or SDK, you can follow the steps in the pinning documentation.

Usage

<CheckoutButton /> must be wrapped inside a <Show when="signed-in"> component to ensure the user is authenticated.

<>
  // ❌ This will throw an error
  <CheckoutButton planId="cplan_xxx" />
  // ✅ Correct usage
  <Show when="signed-in">
    <CheckoutButton planId="cplan_xxx" />
  </Show>
</>

<CheckoutButton /> will throw an error if the for prop is set to 'organization' and no is set.

<>
  // ❌ This will throw an error if no Organization is active
  <CheckoutButton planId="cplan_xxx" for="organization" />
  // ✅ Correct usage
  {auth.orgId ? <CheckoutButton planId="cplan_xxx" for="organization" /> : null}
</>

<CheckoutButton /> preserves any click handlers attached to custom button elements, while maintaining the checkout drawer functionality.

<CheckoutButton planId="cplan_xxx">
  <button onClick={() => console.log('Starting checkout')} className="custom-button">
    Start Subscription
  </button>
</CheckoutButton>
