Hello

strange zealot Dec 22, 2022, 5:11 PM

#

I have omitted confirm: true and payment_method field from the request.

true jackal Dec 22, 2022, 5:11 PM

#

Can you provide an example SetupIntent that I can look at?

#

Doc is saying to include payment_method id in setupIntent api, but payment_method is normally generated after setupIntent become success right?

true jackal Dec 22, 2022, 5:14 PM

#

That depends on whether you are collecting a new PaymentMethod or not.

#

Usually in this flow you would already have the PaymentMethod

strange zealot Dec 22, 2022, 5:15 PM

#

I see, so how would i generate mandate in my case

#

Sorry, docs seems very confusing. Since it has server and client stuff. My question is if i already has paymentMethod , say collected through setupIntent, then why doc is again talking about 3DS and stuff (which is client side stuff, which has been done already)

#

Let's back up a second.

#

Are you attempting to start Subscriptions for Indian customers?

#

What are you trying to do exactly?

strange zealot Dec 22, 2022, 5:20 PM

#

Ok, so what i am doing is i have to charge the customers from backend (off-session) on certain situations (which is not subscription pattern).
So i am using invoice-items and invoice to auto-charge the user.
This works outside India. But in India since 3DS is required payment fails on auto-charge, not even sending a invoice-payment email. So a Stripe dev told me to generate mandate, and it will solve the issue.

true jackal Dec 22, 2022, 5:21 PM

#

Yes okay that's correct.

#

So yeah in this flow, it is only supported currently to already have collected the PaymentMethod

#

Then, 3DS must be performed to authorize the mandate creation

#

It looks like you are doing everything right, but I also don't see a mandate populated which I'm surprised at

#

Looking more into that

strange zealot Dec 22, 2022, 5:22 PM

#

ok, thanks

true jackal Dec 22, 2022, 5:23 PM

#

Ah wait so yeah here you don't already provide a PaymentMethod

#

So what you want to do in this flow is use stripe.createPaymentMethod clientside

#

To generate the PaymentMethod first

#

Then pass it to the SetupIntent

#

Oh you are using Payment Element

strange zealot Dec 22, 2022, 5:25 PM

#

Yes

true jackal Dec 22, 2022, 5:25 PM

#

Yeah you can't use stripe.createPaymentMethod with Payment Element... ugh sorry this is so much harder than it should be

strange zealot Dec 22, 2022, 5:25 PM

#

yeah, i have been biting my head for hrs, and very confused 😅

true jackal Dec 22, 2022, 5:27 PM

#

Yeah that's fair. Checking with a colleague, give me a sec

strange zealot Dec 22, 2022, 5:27 PM

#

ok

#

Hi, anything on this?

true jackal Dec 22, 2022, 5:42 PM

#

Still looking

true jackal Dec 22, 2022, 5:59 PM

#

Okayyyyy

#

So

#

Your flow is actually fine here

#

And the docs are just confusing, which I'll file some feedback to get them cleaned up.

#

However, the issue here was actually that this BIN does not support India mandates

#

I'm also going to file feedback that we should be exposing this to you in some way.

strange zealot Dec 22, 2022, 6:00 PM

#

You mean, AMEX is the issue?

true jackal Dec 22, 2022, 6:01 PM

#

If you run the flow in test-mode using the 4000003560000123 card you will see a mandate returned upon successful 3DS completion.

#

Correct, it is an AMEX issue.

#

We have internal logs that state this Amex BIN does not support India Mandates

strange zealot Dec 22, 2022, 6:02 PM

#

Ok, Thank you very much for taking time to find the issue. I will try with some different indian issued cards 👍
