Hi! Let me help you with this.

Hi @gaunt rune thanks

I can explain further if necessary

[gaunt rune]

It depends. How are you creating your PaymentMethod?

There are 2 ways:

• https://stripe.com/docs/payments/save-and-reuse
• https://stripe.com/docs/payments/save-during-payment

What I'm trying to achieve here is: I have a Subscription which requires a renewal, and the Customer doesn't have a valid PaymentMethod (insufficient balance, etc.). I send a link to the customer so they can enter a new PaymentMethod and complete the Subscription renewal.

The PaymentMethod is then used to pay the Subscription renewal via Stripe JS' confirmCardPayment

However, I cannot attach the entered PaymentMethod to the Customer in question

How can I do it?

[gaunt rune]

Stripe can handle this automatically, you can go to Dashboard: https://dashboard.stripe.com/settings/billing/automatic
There, you will see the Manage failed payments section.

Otherwise, if you want to do it manually, it's best to use SetupIntent, and follow this guide: https://stripe.com/docs/payments/save-and-reuse

But I already have a PaymentIntent

The one from the Invoice that was generated on the Subscription renewal

[gaunt rune]

Have you tried handling it automatically?

[blazing shuttle]

I need to handle it manually

[gaunt rune]

I see
Let me check this on my side

Then you can use the SetupIntent to attach a new payment method to the customer. And then try paying the invoice again on your backend: https://stripe.com/docs/api/invoices/pay

Ok, will try it out!

You can also send the hosted_invoice_url to the customer, and then the payment method they used will be set as default:
