#

Do you want to use Checkout Session or the Payment Element for this?

#

i think payment element must be most suitable

#

as an backend side , what steps should i use

#

Then you first create the Subscription with trial_period_days set https://stripe.com/docs/api/subscriptions/create?lang=java#create_subscription-trial_period_days
And then in the response you will get a pending_setup_intent to collect payment information https://stripe.com/docs/api/subscriptions/object?lang=java#subscription_object-pending_setup_intent

#

So there's no need to create a PaymentIntent.

#

but without payment method of the customer what should i pass in the parameter default_payment_method

#

hi @acoustic onyx u there

#

Step 1: create the subscription with a free trial and no default payment method
Step 2: collect the payment details with the Payment Element and pending_setup_intent
Step 3: when the customer submit the form, the new payment method will be automatically set on the subscription

#

ok so ,
1 --> i create the subscription with free trial with no default payment method

should i give client secret to the front end , so that they will use it to collect the payment method and associate it with customer
2 . save the subscripiton id on my backend related to customer

3 . front end side will collect the payment information , and pass in the pending setup intent to complete the payment .
