requires_capture isn't a thing based on card type, it will happen for any card as long as you specify capture_type as manual when creating the payment intent

#

And to be clear, with 3DS cards the intent will go from requires_payment_method to requires_action to requires_capture

#

This doc may be helpful for you here https://stripe.com/docs/payments/place-a-hold-on-a-payment-method

Place a hold on a payment method

Separate payment authorization and capture to create a charge now, but capture funds later.

#

so if capture_method: 'manual', it will go to requires_capture? If it is not included, it will go straight to requires_action?

polar moat Jun 7, 2023, 3:32 PM

#

No, 3DS happens before the hold is placed, so you will always get requires_action first

#

I would recommend reading the doc I send and our doc on 3DS. These are two separate things

#

3DS is what determines if there is requires_action happens and capture type is what determines if requires_capture happens

#

They don't skip or affect each other other than that failed 3DS means that no funds will be held

#

So I have 3DS authentication setup already, but I'm getting some payment intents that end up in the requires_capture status and I'm wondering why. From what you answered, it seems like it's because I have capture_method: 'manual' when I create my payment intent on my API

#

Correct

#

So for those intents you will need to make the call to actually capture the funds that were held https://stripe.com/docs/payments/place-a-hold-on-a-payment-method#capture-funds

Place a hold on a payment method

Separate payment authorization and capture to create a charge now, but capture funds later.

#

If you don't want to do separate auth and capture going forward, you can just use automatic capture (which is the default when capture_method is not set)

#

thank you!!

#

That being said, if your code is placing holds on funds I assume there is a reason so you may want to ask around if you didn't write this code originally

#

Other parts of your system may be expecting deparate auth and capture

#

Can i add this question please? What if 3D capture the fund instantly, can you charge the card again without undergoing 3D?

#

If 3DS happened during the initial setup, the bank will be less likely to request it in future but there is always a chance. So you should always be ready to present the 3DS flow to your user on any payment

#

Also if you two are working together, we can keep this in the same thread but if you are working separately we should branch your questions in to a separate thread @sinful wind

#

Thanks. We aren't working together. But bank won't require 3DS if it were to be a subscription right?
