Hi there!

#

Give me a few minutes to look into this.

woeful oracle
#

Sure

#

If it makes a difference, I think that's a virtual card.

#

Hey! Taking over for my colleague. Let me catch up.
The first request is from a Setup Intent, meanwhile the second is by the token API, using Stripe JS

woeful oracle
#

Yes

#

When the first one failed, a user did the 2nd request using a different flow

#

Both requests are also against different accounts. Payment method (setup intent?) from the 1st request was intended to be moved from a platform account to the connected account.

#

There havent been any payments attempted yet

#

Only the details saved

#

Against this specific card I mean. There have been other payments done using the 2nd flow

formal osprey
#

The different is that using SetupIntent, the resulting PaymentMethod is** authenticated and saved** meanwhile, using the token API, the card is** just saved and not authenticated**
That's why the first request (using SetupIntent) failed, because the card is declined. If you try to charge the second card then you probably should get a card_decline error also, unless there is something changed in the card's issuer side

woeful oracle
#

The token was later used to create a setup intent req_1SF5zVJ5oW4LJh - was it not authenticated then?

#

Follow up question - is it possible to do authentication when creating a token, or when using a token to create a setup intent?

#

But then why the first authentication failed, and the second one succeeded?

#

I dont know what authentication refers to here - is it the card issuer that rejects it, or only stripe?

formal osprey
woeful oracle
#

Oky thanks for the information

woeful oracle
#

Follow up question - authentication is only pinging the card issuer if the card is valid? There are no authorization charges done?

formal osprey
#

You mean additional fees ?

woeful oracle
#

I mean, some services I've noticed do a 1€ authorization thats immediately refunded

#

Is that considered part of authentication?
