Hi there. What do you need help with specifically?

[hollow isle]

Payment Intent is pi_3MbvZ1E3c9sWyeru0vsItBn3

I created a sub using Stripe Checkout, then later programmatically updated the sub to a new price id and set it to prorate

All of that worked fine but the payment failed because the payment intent (above) didn't have a payment method attached

I don't understand why it didn't have a payment method, isn't that created and stored for offline payments automatically?

because the original payment went through Stripe Checkout

Let me take a look

So that PI is linked to this invoice creation request: https://dashboard.stripe.com/test/logs/req_3MfgS0Rj5e0gfL

Default payment method is only set at the subscription level not customer level

You would need to manually set https://stripe.com/docs/api/customers/update#update_customer-invoice_settings-default_payment_method

It's only set here: https://stripe.com/docs/api/subscriptions/object#subscription_object-default_payment_method

Huh okay, so given what I explained above, what would be the best time to do what you're suggesting? Add the payment method to the customer before I change the subscription or before I create the invoice?

Any time before you need to create an ad-hoc invoice

Doesn't matter as long as it's done before you create an invoice manually
