Hi 👋

What do you mean by "add billing details to the invoice"? What are you collecting that you want to pass on to the invoice?

rustic gull Mar 9, 2023, 8:50 PM

#

Everything located on the right; First, Last Name, address etc.

#

Billing address

#

and these information should also be added to User Details

#

here

stoic field Mar 9, 2023, 8:58 PM

#

Okay, let me test a few things out

rustic gull Mar 9, 2023, 9:01 PM

#

these details are added to payment method; not to customer, and not to invoice

stoic field Mar 9, 2023, 9:02 PM

#

Right, yes that is what I'm seeing.

rustic gull Mar 9, 2023, 9:05 PM

#

is there any way to copy them automatically to invoice? otherwise it would be useless for EU, so I guess there has to be a way 😄

stoic field Mar 9, 2023, 9:11 PM

#

What mode are you using? Are you passing in a Customer ID? Do you have an example Checkout Session ID?

#

I just created a new Customer using Checkout and when I entered billing address it did add the data to the customer.address

rustic gull Mar 9, 2023, 9:12 PM

#

subscription, I'm passing customerID

stoic field Mar 9, 2023, 9:13 PM

#

Ah, it will include this data if you are creating a new customer but I don't think it will add to an existing Customer

rustic gull Mar 9, 2023, 9:13 PM

#

😦

stoic field Mar 9, 2023, 9:15 PM

#

Since you have the Customer already, you can update the Customer data when you receive the checkout.session.completed event

rustic gull Mar 9, 2023, 9:15 PM

#

but the invoice is already generated

#

#

no billing details :{

rustic gull Mar 9, 2023, 9:17 PM

stoic field Since you have the Customer already, you can update the Customer data when you r...

so I have to listen for the event, get billing details from details of payment method, add it, and after that create a new invoice?

stoic field Mar 9, 2023, 9:19 PM

#

Unfortunately so. This is a known issue and I can add your feedback to the feature request to allow populating this data to the Customer.

rustic gull Mar 9, 2023, 9:22 PM

#

is there any way to suspend invoice creation then?

#

checkout -> payment -> event -> adding details from payment method to users details -> creating invoice ?

stoic field Mar 9, 2023, 9:23 PM

#

You mean introduce a delay when the Invoice is issued?

rustic gull Mar 9, 2023, 9:23 PM

#

should work

stoic field Mar 9, 2023, 9:24 PM

#

Unfortunately the only way I know if is to add a 1 day free trial to your Subscriptions: https://stripe.com/docs/api/checkout/sessions/create#create_checkout_session-subscription_data-trial_period_days

rustic gull Mar 9, 2023, 9:27 PM

#

on checkout.session.completed event I'm getting payment method object with billing address?

stoic field Mar 9, 2023, 9:30 PM

#

Actually the object that has that data is the related Charge.

#

You can get there from the checkout.session.completed event data though. By using the invoice ID in the Checkout Session to look up the Invoice and expand the charge property.

#

https://stripe.com/docs/api/invoices/retrieve - Get Invoice
https://stripe.com/docs/expand - How to expand properties

rustic gull Mar 9, 2023, 9:33 PM

#

but if there will be no invoice because of free trial than I'll still be able to get Charge?
