Hi there, we don't have such a feature to allow the customer to decide if they want to allow Stripe to save their card. Collecting the card for future usage is more of a merchant decision, we don't leave it to the customer to decide.

#

You can implement a save card option in your own page, if the customer checked save card option, you can pass in the setup_future_usage when creating a checkout session.

Hi Jack, thanks for that, I am not sure if I completely agree with it being a merchant decision, for instance, I have built an online ordering system for a pizza franchise, at the moment, I am using standard payment elements but moved to Checkout to take advantage of Google Pay and Apple Pay integration. Currently, we have thousands of customers with saved cards so they can re-order with one click instead of typing their card details again - SOme customers save, some don't - they choose. There's not much that can be done but I thought I'd give you a real life case as to why it's beneficial to have that.

#

Oh , yes, Jack, thanks heaps for that, I never thought about that, I'll try that out. I guess my only hurdle now is to ensure the checkbox isn't there if they select Google/Apple pay isntead 😄

Alternatively you can also enable link to save the payment details with Stripe so they can reuse in future checkout sessions https://stripe.com/docs/payments/checkout/customization#link

Thanks a lot of your fast support. Much appreciated

Checkout page will then display an option for customer to decide whether to save the payment details

Does someone need to actually have a Link account? or is Link part of stripe?

#

Link is a reusable payment method that auto-fills your customers’ payment and shipping details for them at checkout. you can learn more about it here https://stripe.com/docs/payments/link

Is there something stopping Link from displaying as an option in test mode?

#

#

My chekout doesn't show it despite it being enabled

#

I don't think this is a checkout page from Stripe, you are using card element in your page if I'm not wrong,

#

If you are not using Stripe Checkout, you need to use payment element and link authentication element in your own page. The integration details are here https://stripe.com/docs/payments/link/accept-a-payment

My bad, I'm usiong Stripe Payment Element

#

violet sigil Oct 7, 2022, 3:59 AM

#

OK. Then you need to integrate link authentication element in your page

silver pond Oct 7, 2022, 4:14 AM

#

Right, so it's not integrated in Stripe Payment Element like Google Pay, etc are done automatically?

violet sigil Oct 7, 2022, 4:14 AM

#

link authentication element is a separate element, it's not part of the payment element
