Stripe Connection Error

Ionic Framework ionic-v3

I have the follow backend Node.js code to connect to my Stripe account to make a Charge. But I’m getting this error:

var functions = require('firebase-functions');
var stripe = require('stripe')('sk_test');
var express = require('express');
var bodyParser = require('body-parser');
var cors = require('cors');

exports.stripePay = functions.https.onRequest((request, response) => {
  if (request.method === 'POST') {
    var app = express();
    var router = express.Router();

    app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({ extended: false }));
    app.use(cors());

    var stripetoken = request.body.cardToken;
    var amountpayable = request.body.amount;

    var charge = stripe.charges.create({
      amount: amountpayable,
      currency: 'usd',
      source: stripetoken,
      description: 'Sample transaction'
    }, function (err, charge) {
      console.log("ST4");
      if (err) {
        response.send("Failed!");
      }
      else {
        response.send({ success: true });
      }
    })
  }

this is a good one! Firebase blocks external API connections for Free accounts, just get any paid account and this will work!
