Single Charge with Stripe in Rails

I'm trying to figure out how to accept credit card using stripe in a single charge that is entered within the forms input field.

Example: user1 logged in and creates a post, entered $20 in a field and clicks submit. The post gets created and $20 gets charged to his card. User2 does the same but puts $45 and enters his credit card and submits the form.

I've got the following done; - devise setup - roles - stripe gem installed and account setup

I haven't found an example that would explain a single charge to stripe, everything is subscription based.

I'm new to this, so I'm trying to mimic the subscription examples but without success.

You need to use Stripe.js in order to get a token, then pass that token string instead of credit card object.

For testing purposes, you can go to https://stripe.com/docs/stripe-js and obtain a token from the form like in this image: enter image description here

How to use it in rails console:

gateway = ActiveMerchant::Billing::StripeGateway.new(:login => STRIPE_SECRET_KEY)
gateway.purchase(1200, "tok_1E0CzPDdSOg3FLH0IFmWo1T2")

Here is how I am executing a single charge using Stripe and the ActiveMerchant gem.

transaction = ActiveMerchant::Billing::StripeGateway.new(:login => STRIPE_SECRET_KEY)

paymentInfo = ActiveMerchant::Billing::CreditCard.new(
            :number             => "4242424242424242",
            :month              => "12",
            :year               => "2020",
            :verification_value => "411")

purchaseOptions = {:billing_address => {
    :name     => "Customer Name",
    :address1 => "Customer Address Line 1",
    :city     => "Customer City",
    :state    => "Customer State",
    :zip      => "Customer Zip Code"
}}

response = transaction.purchase((17.50 * 100).to_i, paymentInfo, purchaseOptions)

if response.success? then
  logger.debug "charge successful"
end
