To buy coins, open the recharge modal from a premium action, select a package, and complete Stripe Payment Element checkout. Coin crediting happens after Stripe sends a successful webhook event and the backend applies the purchase.

## Steps

1. Trigger the purchase modal from a premium gate (for example, when unlocking a paid filter).
2. Pick one package: 600 ($4.99), 1200 ($9.99), 2500 ($19.99), 5500 ($40.99), 15000 ($99.99), and 30000 ($189.99).
3. Complete payment in Stripe and wait for the success redirect to /payment-success.
4. After the 2-second verification delay on success page, confirm the refreshed coin balance on your profile.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### Why does the app wait before showing updated balance?

The success page allows a short delay so webhook processing can finish and profile coins can refresh correctly.

### Can I buy coins without logging in?

No. The payment intent requires an authenticated session token linked to your user account.
