So in order to make a relation between my authenticated user and stripe customer, should i also listen checkout.session.completed and record the customer_id (cus_123) accordingly or shall i just not bother with client_reference_id and just link the user via customer object (cus_123) during the invoice.paid call ?
Yes you should be listening to checkout.session.completed event too and implement this logic

what if i not bother with listening to an additional hook and create that relation vioa the email address of the customer?

#

Ah btw I also think of creating free-trials without collecting the card details ( so I am assuming there wont be a checkout session completed.

No you'll get a that event even with Setup

Not sure I understand this, but you'll receive client_reference_id only for checkout session completed event

so basically i was wondering if i couldt get away with not listening to checkout session completed at all. and only use invoice.paid to create the relation between the customer object and the authenticated user. PS. invoice.paid will give us both customer ojbect and the email adress.

no you can't get the client_reference_id without listening to the checkout event.

yes yes i know that. But i can get away with not using the client_ref_id at all

#

look invoice.paid call gives us both email and the cus_id thats what i mean

I can fetchUserIdByEmail adress here, rather than using the client_reference_id (which is my userId) in the checkout.session.completed

#

You can I think, but in Stripe customer's email field isn't unique (Two Stripe customer objects can have the same email)

#

can i automatically select to carry the email of the user to the checkout page ? (maybe by toggling a button in the stripe dashboard)

#

i alsi couldnt find how I can enable free trials without asking for card details

Nope you can't

#

thank you for the docs , but as i mentioned above i am using pricing tables so i think the checkout page is automatically created by a payment link

#

Is it possible to replicate this behaviour in this case?

#

i am not sending the stripe.checkout.sessions.create object myself . it is automatically being sent by the pricing table

#

so iam assuming there is a toggle in the dashboard to select this option ?
