Cascade Broke Stripe Connect Setup
Expert payout functionality is broken after Cascade refactored Stripe Connect integration. The OAuth flow fails, experts cannot complete Stripe account linking, and payouts cannot be processed. This directly impacts expert earnings and platform trust.
Cascade likely modified the OAuth callback handling or token storage without understanding Stripe's requirements.
Error Messages You Might See
Invalid OAuth redirect URI
Authorization code expired
Connected account not found
Stripe payout account not linked
Common Causes
- Cascade changed OAuth redirect URI without updating Stripe dashboard configuration
- Authorization code exchanged for token but token not stored or stored incorrectly
- Cascade removed refresh token handling for long-lived access
- Connected account ID not properly associated with user account
How to Fix It
Verify OAuth redirect URI matches Stripe dashboard. Ensure authorization code is exchanged for access token immediately. Store connected account ID and access token securely (encrypted). Implement token refresh before expiration. Test OAuth flow end-to-end with Stripe test account. Verify expert profile shows connected Stripe account.

’m a Senior Full-Stack Developer and Tech Lead with experience designing and building scalable web platforms. I work across the full development lifecycle, from translating business requirements into technical architecture to delivering reliable production systems.
My work focuses on modern web technologies, including TypeScript, Angular, Node.js, and cloud-based architectures. I enjoy solving complex technical problems and helping teams turn product ideas and prototypes into working platforms that can grow and scale.
In addition to development, I often collaborate closely with product managers, business analysts, designers, and QA teams to ensure that solutions align with both technical and business goals.
I enjoy working with startups and product teams where I can contribute both as a hands-on engineer and as a technical partner in designing and delivering impactful software.

Jacek Rozanski
Senior PHP/Symfony developer and DevOps engineer with 20+ years of professional experience, running opcode.pl (web development agency, est. 2004).
Day job: I'm the sole backend developer at merketing company where I own and maintain 11 PHP/Symfony microservices on AWS (ECS Fargate, RDS, S3, CloudFront), handle the full CI/CD pipeline (Bitbucket Pipelines, Docker), and manage monitoring with Sentry and CloudWatch. These services handle high request volumes in production every month.
What I bring to AI-built apps:
- I audit and fix security issues (OWASP methodology), performance bottlenecks, and architectural problems in codebases generated by Cursor, Claude Code, Lovable, Bolt, and v0
- I refactor AI-generated prototypes into production-grade applications with proper error handling, testing, and clean architecture (SOLID, DDD, hexagonal architecture)
- I set up the infrastructure AI tools don't touch: AWS hosting, CI/CD pipelines, automated deployments, database optimization, monitoring, and alerting
- I integrate external services: payment providers, email systems, partner APIs, SSO/auth
Tech stack: PHP 8.x, Symfony, React, Next.js, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Docker, AWS (ECS, RDS, S3, SQS/SNS, CloudFront), Terraform, Supabase. I also use AI tools daily (Claude Code, Cursor) in my own workflow, so I understand both the strengths and the gaps in AI-generated code.
Based in Poland (CET timezone). Available for async work and calls during EU/US business hours.

How do I complete Stripe OAuth flow?
Redirect to Stripe → user authorizes → redirect back with code → exchange code for access token → store account ID.
How do I test Stripe Connect?
Use Stripe test mode. Connect with test account. Generate fake payouts to verify flow.
