Gating entrances with Stripe and NFC passes

What this post added

This post details a practical implementation of gating physical entrances using Stripe subscriptions and NFC passes. It outlines the architecture involving Stripe Checkout for subscription payments, PassNinja for issuing digital NFC passes (compatible with Apple/Google Wallet), and a Raspberry Pi with an NFC reader for controlling door access. The technical components include integrating Stripe's payment processing with a system that provisions and validates digital passes, and a hardware component that reads NFC tags to grant or deny access based on the validity of the digital pass.
