so how do i get his cedit card details to set up my recurring payments?

#

The "guest customers" are not real customers, so that the payment methods that are associated with them are not attached, and therefore can't be reused.

#

You need to create a customer first, collect a payment method and attach it to a customer so that you can reuse it.

Set up future payments

Use a supported platform to save card details and charge your customers later.

how to set up the recurring payments if i cant use the guest customer details

polar plover Apr 17, 2023, 7:32 AM

#

You still need to collect the payment details first.

Again you can't use the payment method from guest customers to set up a recurring payment

#

#

Yes you can. You can let Stripe to send the hosted invoice URL of the invoice to the customer (i.e., the settings in the screenshot that you share).
