Examples

Basic usage

The following example demonstrates how to fetch and display a user's payment attempts.

import { usePaymentAttempts } from '@clerk/nextjs/experimental'

function PaymentAttemptsList() {
  const { data, isLoading } = usePaymentAttempts({
    for: 'user',
    pageSize: 10,
  })

  if (isLoading) {
    return <div>Loading payment attempts...</div>
  }

  if (!data || data.length === 0) {
    return <div>No payment attempts found.</div>
  }

  return (
    <ul>
      {data?.map((attempt) => (
        <li key={attempt.id}>
          Payment #{attempt.id} - {attempt.status}
          <br />
          Amount: {attempt.amount.amountFormatted} on {new Date(attempt.updatedAt).toLocaleString()}
        </li>
      ))}
    </ul>
  )
}

Infinite pagination

The following example demonstrates how to implement infinite scrolling with payment attempts.

import { usePaymentAttempts } from '@clerk/nextjs/experimental'

function InfinitePaymentAttempts() {
  const { data, isLoading, hasNextPage, fetchNext } = usePaymentAttempts({
    for: 'user',
    infinite: true,
    pageSize: 20,
  })

  if (isLoading) {
    return <div>Loading...</div>
  }

  if (!data || data.length === 0) {
    return <div>No payment attempts found.</div>
  }

  return (
    <div>
      <ul>
        {data?.map((attempt) => (
          <li key={attempt.id}>
            Payment attempt for {attempt.amount.amountFormatted}
            <br />
            Status: {attempt.status}
            <br />
            {attempt.status === 'failed' && attempt.failedAt && (
              <span>Failed At: {new Date(attempt.failedAt).toLocaleString()}</span>
            )}
          </li>
        ))}
      </ul>

      {hasNextPage && <button onClick={() => fetchNext()}>Load more payment attempts</button>}
    </div>
  )
}

Payment attempts history table

The following example demonstrates how to use usePaymentAttempts() to display a detailed payment history table.

import { usePaymentAttempts } from '@clerk/nextjs/experimental'

function PaymentAttemptsHistory() {
  const { data, isLoading } = usePaymentAttempts({ for: 'user' })

  if (isLoading) {
    return <div>Loading payment attempts...</div>
  }

  if (!data || data.length === 0) {
    return <div>No payment attempts found.</div>
  }

  const getStatusColor = (status: string) => {
    switch (status) {
      case 'paid':
        return 'green'
      case 'failed':
        return 'red'
      case 'pending':
        return 'orange'
      default:
        return 'gray'
    }
  }

  return (
    <table>
      <thead>
        <tr>
          <th>Payment ID</th>
          <th>Amount</th>
          <th>Status</th>
          <th>Date</th>
          <th>Payment Method</th>
        </tr>
      </thead>
      <tbody>
        {data?.map((attempt) => (
          <tr key={attempt.id}>
            <td>{attempt.id}</td>
            <td>{attempt.amount.amountFormatted}</td>
            <td style={{ color: getStatusColor(attempt.status) }}>{attempt.status}</td>
            <td>{attempt.paidAt ? new Date(attempt.paidAt).toLocaleDateString() : '-'}</td>
            <td>
              {attempt.paymentSource.cardType} ****{attempt.paymentSource.last4}
            </td>
          </tr>
        ))}
      </tbody>
    </table>
  )
}
