Hi there, it'll create a new customer even with the same email address.

#

You can specify a customer (https://stripe.com/docs/api/checkout/sessions/create?lang=curl#create_checkout_session-customer) when creating a checkout session.

Stripe API reference – Create a Checkout Session – 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.

Ok, that really doesn't make sense to do that but will send the customer ID that I have.

#

The reason why is because on a failed payment would like to use the same customer when they try to order again.

#

Again email addresses are unique so it really doesn't make sense to create a new customer with the same email address.

#

Also you should make it so both parameters are allowed and if the customer is not valid use the email address.
