hi! generally you build that into your website, like you have the user create an account in your system and log into it, and in your user database you store the ID of the corresponding Customer object cus_xxx
sly raft
our store user's ID(any primary key ) is matching with Customer object cus_xxx, and we store Customer object (cus_xx) in our database . right??
and one more question,,

if i save incorrectly Customer object (cus_xxx) in our database , we are going to expose another customer's card informations ?

Hi! I'm taking over this thread.
The Stripe API doesn't allow you to view or show the full card details of customers. But if one customer on your end is mapped to the wrong customer ID in Stripe, then yes it could create issues (like using the saved card of a different customer for a purchase).

😂 oh...finally...
I want my customers to use a card what they have previously used.
first i create Customer Object , create card with Customer Object at the time of confirm PaymentIntent? what point do i create user and card??
wide jacinth
It depends, which Stripe integration are you using? Checkout Session, Payment Element + Payment Intent, something else?
sly raft
i use Payment Element + Payment Intent.
wide jacinth
And do you want to make a payment while saving the card, or you just want to save the card with no payments?
sly raft
i want to make a payment while saving the cards
wide jacinth
Then the classic flow is like this:
- Create a Customer object
- Create a PaymentIntent with
setup_future_usageto save the card https://stripe.com/docs/api/payment_intents/create#create_payment_intent-setup_future_usage - Load the Payment Element
- Confirm the PaymentIntent
Note that if needed you can create the customer at the end.
sly raft
is not disappear the PaymentIntent ?
wide jacinth
What do you mean?
sly raft
umm... "Create a PaymentIntent with setup_future_usage to save the card " means that i can confirmPayment success without entering my card number?
permanently
wide jacinth
Yes, once the user entered their payment information and you confirmed the PaymentIntent, a PaymentMethod will be created. And if you set setup_future_usage, it means you can reuse that PaymentMethod.

thank you...
