Hi there!

If you already have a payment method saved (for example with a SetupIntent), yes you can use it to start a subscription.

I have render the payment element of setupintent and do the payment then I got the payment method from the setupIntent and I set the default payment method to the customer and after that I create a subscription but when i see in the log the subscription still incomplete and the invoice is still open.

Thanks! Give me a few minutes to look into this.

ok

If the customer already has a default payment method, you should set payment_behavior: "allow_incomplete"

I already set this payment behaviour to the subscription

But note that you don't need to collect a payment method with a SetupIntent before. You could:

• Create a subscription with payment_behavior: "default_incomplete"
• Retrieve the latest_invoice.payment_intent.client_secret from the subscription
• And use that on the frontend to collect the payment details
  This is the recommended implementation
