Stripe: No such token.. a similar object exists in test mode, but a live mode key was used to make this request

Question

When using Stripe in live mode I get this PHP error:

No such token tok_fgfhn.. a similar object exists in test mode, but a live mode key was used to make this request

Everything works well in Stripe test mode, and and I've switched to a live API key.

I create a new customer like this:

$token  = $_POST['stripeToken'];     $email  = $_POST['email'];  $customer = \Stripe\Customer::create(array(       'email' => $email,       'card'  => $token     ));      //charge for user ads     $charge = \Stripe\Charge::create(array(       'customer' => $customer->id,       'amount'   => $amount,       'currency' => 'eur'     )); 

I've tested many hours but I still get this error. How can I fix it?

Answer 1

It sounds like you're trying to charge a customer who exists on your test account, not on your live account. Make sure you are making a new customer with your live keys and using their token to create the charge.
