How can I say which Discord member came through which invite?

I want to have a Discord server for paid members. I thought I could make them pay over Stripe, send them an invite on payment, and then regularly run a Python script, which checks whether all my Discord members have a valid subscription. For this to work I need a logical connection between the payment and the Discord member.

I thought the logical connection would be the invite, but I can't seem to figure out how to do this. I studied the Discord API, but it seems the invites are not unique to members nor I can track down which members used which invites.

Also, I can't even see the members' e-mail address. Not that e-mails would be the best logical connection, as one could use a different e-mail for subscription than for setting up their Discord account, but it would be at least a spark of hope. I discovered a permission/scope to see e-mails, but it seems to require a full, interactive OAuth2 flow, whereas I need to pair the members with payments using a non-interactive server-side cron script.

Could someone point me to the right direction?

Note: There are services like LaunchPass or Memberful, which can do this, hence there must be a way. I can code and I think I'd be okay with a much simpler mechanism then what they offer (one manually editable Google Sheets table and one Python script), so I'm trying to figure this out myself.

have them link their discord account to a service, if their email matches then let them in, if not don't

I don't know I saw the dropout service do it once, but I am not sure how.

idea have your service linked to discord, if they pay then let them in, if not don't let them in. easy as pie.

Maybe you should ask them for their discord ID…?

I've had a different problem but the issue was the same, we had people joining our server with malicious intents, but we'd be unable to determine which invite they used. I know discord keeps track of how many people used an invite, but doesn't show us who those people were.
