You may follow this guide for Subscription integration and it allows saving the payment method at the same time: https://stripe.com/docs/billing/subscriptions/build-subscriptions?ui=elements

#

You don't have to use additional SetupIntent to save payment method details

#

when is that I need to use the Setup and paymentIntent api..please clarify?

smoky blade Mar 28, 2023, 4:56 AM

#

If you use Subscription, it will automatically create Payment Intent (non-zero amount) or Setup Intent (zero amount) for you. You don't have to create any of them manually or in extra step as described in the doc above.

The only time when you need to create Payment Intent by yourself is for one-time payment and Setup Intent for saving payment method only

okay, so the webhook event that I should listen to will be payment_intent.succeeded instead of checkout.session.completed

buoyant elk Mar 28, 2023, 5:22 AM

#

that depends on what you're looking for - what are you trying to do by listening for the webhook event? I'd suggest going through this documentation : https://stripe.com/docs/billing/subscriptions/webhooks

#

what trigger will be sent if the payment fails...i am using subscription api....

#

there are two events on successful payments - charge.suceeded and payment_intent.suceeded, which one will be fired

smoky blade Mar 28, 2023, 5:56 AM

#

For successful payment on the invoice of the subscription, you should listen to invoice.paid

sick basalt Mar 28, 2023, 5:57 AM

#

even if i am not using stripe invoices?

#

i have my own invoicing solution

smoky blade Mar 28, 2023, 6:03 AM

#

If you're using Subscription API, the payment will be made through Invoices under the hood and invoice.paid event will be sent for successful payment

#

while upgrading using update subscription call, the new price will be reflected in which parameter?

smoky blade Mar 28, 2023, 6:36 AM

#

The new price should be reflected in items.data.price: https://stripe.com/docs/api/subscriptions/object#subscription_object-items-data-price

Stripe API reference – The subscription object – curl

Complete reference documentation for the Stripe API. Includes code snippets and examples for our Python, Java, PHP, Node.js, Go, Ruby, and .NET libraries.

shouldnt we be passing the new value in update subscription in https://stripe.com/docs/api/subscriptions/update#update_subscription-items-price

smoky blade Mar 28, 2023, 6:48 AM

#

Oops sorry! I sent the response parameters instead of request parameters. To change the price, it will be set on items.price. You can find the integration details of upgrading the subscription price here: https://stripe.com/docs/billing/subscriptions/upgrade-downgrade#changing

sick basalt Mar 28, 2023, 6:58 AM

#

there is an event customer.subscription.created ...may I know when will I receive it...on subscription creation? At the same time, I will get the invoice.paid event as you said. Please clarify my confusion

smoky blade Mar 28, 2023, 7:04 AM

#

When a subscription is created on the customer, customer.subscription.created event will be sent. If the payment on the invoice of the subscription is made, then invoice.paid event will be sent

#

You may refer to the Webhook event details that will be sent as part of Subscription integration here: https://stripe.com/docs/billing/subscriptions/webhooks
