#jamesdahlen.nwi - yearly subs
grizzled obsidian
Checking in to this and will get back to you
It looks like you collected their payment info but you didn't set the payment method as the default payment method for either the Customer or the Subscription

dangit- even though there is only 1, it wont use it as default?
grizzled obsidian
If you set these payment methods as the invoice_settings[default_payment_method] on the Customer or as default_payment_method on the Subscription these should work
Correct, it needs to be set on one of those fields

I wonder how I should resolve this, there was maybe 300 recurring subscriptions. Could i just update each subscription/customer with their existing payment source?
grizzled obsidian
Yes that should work. You can also make API calls to pay these invoices with their existing payment methods so that you don't have to wait for retries if that makes sense for you https://stripe.com/docs/api/invoices/pay#pay_invoice-payment_method

ok- thank you. i will check into updating the customer and that API call.
can a default_payment_method value when creating a Subscription be a Customer ID?
I am creating a Sub with default_incomplete so I dont have their payment info yet
but I do have their Customer ID
grizzled obsidian
No, but you will set the customer field when creating the subscription so they will be linked
acoustic tree
yes- I am already linking them
grizzled obsidian
You can do that without passing in any ID, just make sure to set one of the two fields that I mentioned earlier once you collect their info
acoustic tree
ok- thanks

Hi again- as I work through updating these I am finding that my customers don't have any Sources in API responses, however i see their Payment method in Stripe Dashboard: cus_LHhgIT7smYaBtF not sure why
empty sources, default_source, etc
i am expanding sources when i retrieve the customer
grizzled obsidian
You will probably want to list all of the Customer's payment methods here, https://stripe.com/docs/api/payment_methods/customer_list
These cards should show up in that list
I forget about how the backwards compatibility works with Payment Methods and Sources but here you should definitely see these cards as payment methods
acoustic tree
ah yes- i just executed that and see it. I should be able to set one of these IDs to a Customer invoice_settings[default_payment_method]?
grizzled obsidian
Yes, that should work for the API call
acoustic tree
ok thanks again
