👋 happy to help
to purchase a one time product and a subscription
do you mean at the same time?
frigid tulip
no my bad I mean separate
we want to allow customers to purchase one time products and also subscriptions using apple pay if they have any payment methods stored there
final hollow
for one-time products it's https://stripe.com/docs/apple-pay?platform=react-native
the only difference for subscriptions is that instead of creating a PaymentIntent you would use the subscription's latest_invoice.payment_intent's client_secret
if the subscription has a 100% coupon or a free trial (e.g. the first invoice is 0) instead you need to use the pending_setup_intent on the subscription
frigid tulip
not sure what you mean in the second step? do I need to create the subscription first before attempting to charge them?

final hollow
not sure what you mean in the second step? do I need to create the subscription ...
yes this is what we recommend
frigid tulip
and where do I get the client_secret? does it come from, latest_invoice.payment_intent.client_secret?
what if the payment doesn't go through? we need to cancel the membership I assume, is there any documentation on how to properly handle this?
final hollow
you can read more about it here https://stripe.com/docs/billing/subscriptions/build-subscriptions?ui=elements
final hollow
and where do I get the client_secret? does it come from, latest_invoice.payment_...
yes exactly
frigid tulip
we actually got it working with creating a setupIntent in the server and using the clientSecret from the response to confirmApplePayment(clientSecret) and it works fine as well
is this method fine too?
final hollow
the reason why we don't recommend this is because it's confusing for customers
when you use SetupIntents the PaymentSheet will display 0 instead of the subscription's price
frigid tulip
yes you are right, we get that it displays 0 I assume is to confirm the payment method storage for future usage
and when it requires customer authentication it re asks them again to confirm
frigid tulip
please do not close the thread im just double checking the above in case I have more questions
so say for example, if the payment doesn't go throw for x reason e.g insufficient funds, then we'll need to cancel the membership in here https://stripe.com/docs/apple-pay?platform=react-native#client-side on line 38: if (confirmError) {} right?

Hi there 👋 jumping in as my teammate needed to step away. Yes that is correct, unless you wanted to allow your customer to try again with a different Payment Method, then you could reuse the existing Subscription I believe.
frigid tulip
perfect I understand. thanks so much for the help
tidal isle
Any time!
frigid tulip
what happens if we set 'Recurring' in paymentType, inside cartItems when presentingApplePay, say if we create a subscription will it charge the customer twice?
frigid tulip
the only difference for subscriptions is that instead of creating a PaymentInten...
from what you mentioned here that is very similar to one time payments, do I need to set paymentType: 'Immediate' then?
tidal isle
what happens if we set 'Recurring' in paymentType, inside cartItems when present...
I'm not sure off-hand, my hunch is it is primarily used to adjust the UI that is displayed to the customer, but I'm not certain on that.
Let me see what I can find.
frigid tulip
perfect thanks a lot, I just wanted to make sure before setting it to "Recurring" in case side effects happen
otherwise I can just leave it as "Immediate" all the time even if it's for subscriptions
tidal isle
I do see that recurring seems to only be supported on iOS 15+, and that for earlier versions that option falls back to immediate:

frigid tulip
perfect thank you I will set it to immediate just in case
tidal isle
I need to step away soon and am closing this thread. If there is anything else that my teammates can assist with, then please let them know in #dev-help. 👋
