Hello,
We are offering a service that takes 3 hours and the service may contain multiple-sub services, and additional services could be added during the 3 hours.
We are creating a PaymentIntent for the initial order with capture_method: 'manual', and planning to do the same for any potential add-on services that the user purchases during the main service.
Wondering what would be the "proper" way to handle this. Should we use the Invoice API?
Here is an example:
#1 - Customer places an order for Mowing the grass service for $50 + Clean up the yard service for $15. We create a single paymentIntent to reserve funds on the customer's bank account, but not charge it yet.
#2 - Customer adds Take out the trash service for $5, we create another paymentIntent to reserve funds for this additional service.
#3 - All services are finished, we capture the reserved funds from backend.
Is it possible to make the whole service look as a single charge from our company in the customers bank statement? Can someone help me with how should a working in real-life implementation look like? Should we use the Invoice API and would that align with the user flow I drawn up above?
Thank you!
