Guide Description

Describe this camera-specific content package. The customer app itself remains camera-independent.

Camera guide description

These details identify the camera guide loaded inside the Bird & Wildlife Field Companion.

Commerce / Stripe

Customer purchase settings

Each published guide can use its own Stripe Price ID. These identifiers are stored in Supabase so adding another camera guide does not require a new Netlify environment variable or code change.

The display price is catalogue metadata. Stripe remains authoritative for the amount charged, including promotion-code discounts. “Coming soon” keeps the guide visible but disables checkout.
