HI 👋
You can allow users to provide their Tax IDs to identify the purchase as a business expense.

Hello and ty! They are using the Stripe Checkout page so they are the ones filling in the details

#

So what you are saying is that I should ask the customer if he wants to use business checkout before redirecting to the checkout page?

#

either that or make the option available for all customers and the ones who want to can use it

#

But dynamically adjusting the Checkout Session is likely a better practice

#

Ok so including the tax_id_collection in checkout toggles an optional field

#

I agree with the best practice method but our customer journey doesn't allow us to introduce a checkbox or input

#

Gotcha. Then you can have it on by default

#

From what I can see here it is required

#

So this would basically lead to the field being shown but not as REQUIRED ?

#

Sorry you are misreading the label in the doc.

#

If you are providing the tax_id_collection associative array then the enabled parameter is required

#

tax_id_collection => ['enabled' => true]

Ok, got it

#

Thanks a lot!
