Hello 👋
If you have a trial then the Subscription object should have a pending_setup_intent already created which you can use to collect the PaymentMethod from your customer

According to this, we should be using SetupIntents: https://stripe.com/docs/billing/migration/strong-customer-authentication#scenario-2

That is if your customers are off-session already and you're trying to create a subscription for them

#

I assume your customers are on-session when they sign up for a subscription, correct?

#

Yes, that's correct

Gotcha, so in that case hanzo was reccommending you create the subscription first and then use the pending_setup_intent that it generates to collect the new card details. You could also follow your guide though, if I understand you correctly that should achieve the same thing as long as you are creating a subscription with a trial.
