Hello 👋
Once you've submitted a request via the form, the team handling beta enrolment will reach out to you once they determine your eligibility. Until they confirm it, I don't think you'd be able to use the feature.

Ah I see. Is there a specific set of requirements to be eligible?

I believe so, our team won't know what those are exactly. So you'd likely need to wait for the team that handles that beta feature enrolment.

Ok sounds good. The reason why I had been looking into this is because I'm implementing an online store where product availability can change. For context, the products are handled through an internal database, not the stripe products feature. My problem is that I need to verify that the product is still available when a payment intent is to be confirmed. There could be a scenario where a payment intent is created to pay for a set of products that are all available, but one of them becomes unavailable before the user attempts to actually confirm the payment intent. What I wanted to do was confirm product availability on my server before confirming the payment with this beta feature. Would you by any chance recommend an alternative approach I could take?

Gotcha! yeah makes sense.

#

You could place a hold on the payment method and check if the product is available. If they are then you can proceed with capturing the funds
