Stripe, Cloudflare, and Nginx launch checklist

A compact production checklist for founders launching a Stripe Payment Link or Checkout flow behind Cloudflare and Nginx Proxy Manager.

Launch checks

Confirm the Stripe link is in live mode with the intended product, amount, currency, success URL, and support email.
Verify the live webhook endpoint receives checkout.session.completed and checks the Stripe-Signature header before delivery.
Confirm Cloudflare DNS, proxy mode, TLS mode, and Nginx Proxy Manager forward host and port before sending traffic.
Test the public health endpoint, HTTP to HTTPS redirects, apex or www canonical redirects, and one real checkout redirect path.
Write down rollback values for DNS, proxy mode, Nginx host settings, TLS, and checkout links before launch.

Run the production launch checklist, then cross-check secrets, Cloudflare, Nginx, redirects, and checkout delivery before sharing paid links.
