What happens when I click Buy with Polar?
The button opens a hosted Polar.sh checkout. Depending on the active Polar.sh checkout configuration, the page may only show your email address and payment details first.
FAQ
Purchase and access FAQ.
Chrome Extension Kit is sold through Polar.sh and delivered through private GitHub repository access. Use this guide when checkout only shows email and payment fields, or when you need to claim GitHub access after purchase.
Before purchase
Do I need a GitHub account before buying?
Yes. Chrome Extension Kit is delivered through private GitHub repository access, so you need a GitHub account that can accept a repository invitation. You can still complete checkout with your purchase email first.
What should I check before paying?
Confirm that the purchase email is one you can access, that you understand this is private repository access, and that you have the required accounts and development environment: GitHub, Node.js, pnpm, Chrome, Cloudflare, and Polar.sh.
After purchase
How do I get access after purchase?
Open the Polar.sh receipt email or Polar.sh Customer Portal with the same email address used at checkout, then claim the Chrome Extension Kit entitlement. GitHub repository access is claimed after purchase through Polar.sh email or the Polar.sh Customer Portal, not during Polar.sh checkout.
How do I connect my GitHub account?
Follow the GitHub access flow from the Polar.sh email or Polar.sh Customer Portal. If Polar.sh or GitHub sends a repository invitation, accept it from the GitHub account that should receive private repository access.
What if the GitHub invite does not arrive?
Contact support with your Polar.sh receipt email, order number or checkout reference if available, and GitHub username. Keep these details because they are needed to verify the purchase and resend or troubleshoot repository access.
How do I activate licenses and entitlements?
The template includes a Cloudflare Worker for secure checkout creation. Repository access is provisioned by the Polar.sh Benefit configuration, and extension license or entitlement APIs can be added for your own product when needed.
Troubleshooting
I used the wrong email address at checkout. What should I do?
Contact support with the purchase email, the email you want to use, and your GitHub username. Do not purchase again only to change the account unless support asks you to.
Can I change the GitHub account later?
Usually yes, but the old repository access may need to be removed before a new invitation is sent. Include your purchase email and both GitHub usernames when asking for the change.
