The script delivers digital products via email after polling Stripe, avoiding webhooks, platform fees, and server maintenance.

Workflow

• 1. Store Stripe API key, payment link ID, file path, and SMTP credentials in a config file.

• 4. Run plinkpost once to deliver all unpaid sessions immediately.
• 5. Use plinkpost watch to poll every POLL_SECONDS and auto‑deliver new purchases.
