Check constraint for current date and expire date on credit card - sql

Question

Currently learning MariaDB, struggling to add a check constraint for a payments table. I want to check that the inputted expiration date for the credit/debit card is after the current date.
Create table payments (
customerID int(11) Not Null,
debit_credit_Num varchar(20) Not Null,
expireDate date Not Null,
CVS int(3) Not Null,
billaddress varchar(100) Not Null,
billcity varchar(100) Not Null,
billprovince varchar(10) Not Null,
billpostalcode varchar(10) Not Null,
billcountry varchar(100) Not Null,
Constraint fk_has_customerpayment Foreign Key (customerID) References customers(customerID),
Constraint chk_expdate check (date('now') < expireDate);
)
2 errors were found during analysis.
A symbol name was expected! A reserved keyword can not be used as a column name without backquotes. (near "check" at position 463).
Unrecognized statement type. (near "date" at position 470)

Input query sample
Insert into payments (customerID, debit_credit_Num, expireDate, cvs, billAddress, billcity, billprovince, billpostalcode, billcountry) values
(1, '1234 5678 9123 4567', '2025-07-01', 213, '123 Church St', 'Burnaby', 'BC', 'V5A 1S6', 'Canada'),
(2, '0968 1723 2859 1902', '2025-04-01', 874, '321 W Popeyes Dr', 'Vancouver', 'BC', 'V6B 2J2', 'Canada')
(2, '0968 1723 2859 1111', '1999-04-01', 874, '321 W Popeyes Dr', 'Vancouver', 'BC', 'V6B 2J2', 'Canada'); <--- Should fail constraint
Edit 1
Thank you Umut TEKİN, I tried making a trigger like so but I don't know where I went wrong
CREATE TRIGGER chk_expdate
BEFORE INSERT
ON payments
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
IF (new.expiredate < CURRENT_DATE) THEN
SIGNAL SQLSTATE '45000'
SET MESSAGE_TEXT = 'Card has expired'; [<------ Line 8]
END IF;
END;
Error Message: MySQL said:

It works on
https://dbfiddle.uk/?rdbms=mysql_8.0&fiddle=efb986c7edb6b4a3755639e2a380cae4
but not on PHPMyAdmin.
Edit 2
Managed to make trigger work by adding a delimiter on phpmyadmin following Paul T's answer to link
delimiter//
CREATE TRIGGER chk_expdate
BEFORE INSERT ON payments
FOR EACH ROW BEGIN
IF (new.expiredate < CURRENT_DATE) THEN
SIGNAL SQLSTATE '45000'
SET MESSAGE_TEXT = 'Card has expired';
END IF;
END;

Answer 1

You have 2 problem here. First one syntax (missing parenthesis or misplaced semicolon). It should be like this:
Create table payments (
customerID int(11) Not Null,
debit_credit_Num varchar(20) Not Null,
expireDate date Not Null,
CVS int(3) Not Null,
billaddress varchar(100) Not Null,
billcity varchar(100) Not Null,
billprovince varchar(10) Not Null,
billpostalcode varchar(10) Not Null,
billcountry varchar(100) Not Null,
Constraint fk_has_customerpayment Foreign Key (customerID) References customers(customerID),
Constraint chk_expdate check (check condition));
Second one is date(now()) or curdate() are nondeterministic functions. So this usage is not allowed.
Literals, deterministic built-in functions, and operators are
permitted. A function is deterministic if, given the same data in
tables, multiple invocations produce the same result, independently of
the connected user. Examples of functions that are nondeterministic
and fail this definition: CONNECTION_ID(), CURRENT_USER(), NOW().
Reference
Yet, triggers allow you to do that. It' s better also to check here.
