# Paddle subscription integration

## Sandbox configuration

Keep the Paddle API key and webhook secret server-side only. Do not put either value in the macOS application or commit them to Git.

Required environment variables:

```dotenv
PADDLE_API_KEY=pdl_sdbx_apikey_...
PADDLE_API_URL=https://sandbox-api.paddle.com
PADDLE_WEBHOOK_SECRET=...

PADDLE_PERSONAL_PRODUCT_ID=pro_01m22q4c3vt7yvtv3h3zw1jbn0
PADDLE_PERSONAL_MONTHLY_PRICE_ID=pri_01m22q4cjx177krcpvdph7e2vy
PADDLE_PERSONAL_ANNUAL_PRICE_ID=pri_01m22q4cs9sr5gshxp6j56nvmh
PADDLE_PROFESSIONAL_PRODUCT_ID=pro_01m22q4d0s6y1557wsq9s7xw8n
PADDLE_PROFESSIONAL_MONTHLY_PRICE_ID=pri_01m22q4d6h1yvr1frawtx51gy8
PADDLE_PROFESSIONAL_ANNUAL_PRICE_ID=pri_01m22q4dcndcdbzc20txadaz52
```

Then run:

```bash
php artisan migrate
php artisan db:seed --class=Database\\Seeders\\PaddleCatalogSeeder
php artisan config:clear
```

The seeder maps the four Paddle price IDs to licensing entitlements. Personal permits one active Mac; Professional permits three.

## Paddle notification destination

Configure the sandbox notification destination to POST to:

`https://YOUR-HOST/api/v1/webhooks/paddle`

Copy the destination endpoint secret into `PADDLE_WEBHOOK_SECRET`.

Subscribe to at least:

- `subscription.created`
- `subscription.updated`
- `subscription.activated`
- `subscription.trialing`
- `subscription.canceled`
- `subscription.paused`
- `subscription.resumed`
- `subscription.past_due`
- `transaction.completed`
- `transaction.refunded`

## Entitlement behavior

- Trialing and active subscriptions are usable.
- A scheduled end-of-period cancellation stays usable until Paddle changes the subscription to canceled.
- Upgrades/downgrades update the entitlement on the existing licence key.
- Canceled or paused subscriptions revoke the licence.
- Past-due subscriptions retain access through Paddle's current billing period rather than being revoked on the first failed payment.
- Paddle customer details are fetched server-side when the webhook does not carry customer email/name in custom data.

## Important

The API key is required only on the licensing server. Use a sandbox key with the sandbox API URL. Live Paddle products/prices have different IDs and should be configured separately when moving to production.
