👋 Hi there, Happy to help!
If you didn’t create the Checkout Session with an existing customer, use the payment_method ID to attach the PaymentMethod to a Customer. After you attach the PaymentMethod to a customer, you can charge the PaymentMethod using a PaymentIntent

I'm passing a customer 👌🏼 my issue was the payment method added to the customer isn't set as the default so any future payments done via PaymentIntents fails complaining about no payment method.

I guess it looks like we either 1. Have to get the customers payment method before programmatically creating a PaymentIntent or programmatically set the payment_method as the customers default source using a webhook?

We're using checkout for initial purchases of subscriptions, but we want to handle subscriptions on our side due to some complexities so will take future payments programatically

When creating a PaymentIntent, you need to pass the saved PaymentMethod Id and the Customer Id

I wanted to pass confirm=True which then automatically selects Customer.default_source as the payment method 🙂

Ah ok I see, then you need to update the customer default_source manually when you get the PaymentMethod Id

thanks 🙂
