We don't have non-subscription recurring payment documentation, unfortunately. If you are using recurring payments without subscriptions, then you would have to be tracking that and coding for it on your own

Ok, but is it supported? I did that and I fear that's why I got the message from stripe saying that we had transactions that were not approved by the customer.

#

I'm not sure if we should be showing the apply pay sheet every time. We're also not charging the user until after they use our service. So that might also be it. Meaning we charge them depending on how long they use our service (usually an hour or a day) and once they're done they confirm the charge.

So you're charging them for every time they use the service? Or you mean that you are aggregating usage over time and charging them once a month?

Thanks again for the reply @toxic vapor . We charge them every time after they use the service depending on how long they used the service.

#

Meaning if they used it for an hour we charge them for the hour and send them an email receipt through stripe.

So that would not be considered a recurring transaction the, since you're creating a new one-off charge each time. You can use Apple Pay to pay for one-off charges the same way you would for subscriptions. Are you using Stripe Checkout? Or a custom payment form?

We're using custom payment forms, but I fear the issue here is that we are not doing one-off charges but rather reusing apple pay tokens. Could that be it?

#

We use an apply pay token to create a stripe customer object and charge them everytime they use our service.

#

The thing is the customer payment forms we use are for saving payment methods and not for checking out the user. We ideally want to minimize the number of times we ask the user to checkout. Hopefully they just set it up once and that's it.

#

Ahhh, okay. That is not possible without using subscriptions. You have to bring the customer back into the payment flow every time you charge them if you're not using subscriptions.

Is that the case for credit/debit cards aswell or is it just for Apple Pay?

toxic vapor
#

Just Apple Pay and Google Pay

Ok, that nice! If we still plan on using Apple Pay, can we charge the users after they use our service? Meaning show $0 initially and charge them after they're done with the service or will we have to ask them after they use the service $X? The thing is if we ask them after they user our service, we fear there might be a few users that will forget or won't pay.
