I want to use stripe payment gateway for my php application developed using laravel.I found this https://cartalyst.com/manual/stripe/1.0 package which makes using stripe with laravel easy, but I am afraid if it will be able to provide me each and very api that is mentioned on the official php API on the stripe website ?
For eg the code to retrieve my account balance using stripe official php doc is :
\Stripe\Stripe::setApiKey("sk_test_BQokikJOvBiI2HlWgH4olfQ2");
\Stripe\Balance::retrieve();
while to do same in cartalyst-stripe is:
Stripe::setApiKey(env('STRIPE_SECRET'));
$balance = Stripe::balance()->current();
Cartalyst/stripe-laravel is a Platform-Agnostic package
Instead, you should be using Laravel Cashier
Then your User model will get a billable trait. So you can attach Stripe functionality directly to your customer.
