Hi there, what is RCP?
tame tusk
repeat card payment
livid mortar
Can you elaborate more on this?
tame tusk
yeah, sure
let say someone pay there rent in the first month and save card details and in future the rent installment should be paid automatically
or it should be paid whenever the landlord request to stripe, so the customer card detected automatically
livid mortar
OK, it sounds like a subscription to me. https://stripe.com/docs/billing/subscriptions/build-subscriptions?ui=checkout you can use Stripe Checkout to build a subscirption integration.
tame tusk
we didn't setup products and charges etc in stripe
livid mortar
You don't need to, just pass the product info through https://stripe.com/docs/api/checkout/sessions/create#create_checkout_session-line_items-price_data
livid mortar
It looks good to me. You just need to change the mode to subscription, and set a recurring in the price https://stripe.com/docs/api/checkout/sessions/create#create_checkout_session-line_items-price_data-recurring
tame tusk
the difference which I found is "Mode"
ok by doing this the payer will be charge same amount periodically. right?
but our situation is a little different
actually charges are configured internally and all the charges are listed in the contract, so everytime charge is different based on no. of weeks, peek times etc
livid mortar
Sure, Stripe supports usage-based pricing too https://stripe.com/docs/products-prices/pricing-models#usage-based-pricing
tame tusk
so when charges are due, system automatically generate a request for payment who save card prevously
livid mortar
I'd suggest you to go through the doc that I shared earlier and see if it fits your business model.
tame tusk
I already go through the docs you shared
this not something we want
let me share a scenario
livid mortar
Can you tell me which part of the billing model doesn't fit your need?
Based on my understanding on what you described, your's business model falls into the usage based pricing.
tame tusk
Tenant registered on our application, accept agreement, charges etc and rented a room.
Pay Booking Fee through online payment (stripe checkout method is integrated in our application)
say the tenant agree to save card for future payment.
Now, when the charges is due in our own system, system will generate a request to stripe (without involving the tenant as he already agreed for future payments) to charge that card again for this amount say 200$
tame tusk
Can you tell me which part of the billing model doesn't fit your need?
from that document, it looks like I have to configure product and charges in stripe first, which is not the case here
we don't want to configure anything in stripe. we just use stripe for online payments only.
this is how it look, when our tenant try to pay

I believe I have already inform you that you can create inline price through https://stripe.com/docs/api/checkout/sessions/create#create_checkout_session-line_items-price_data, you don't need to create upfront price
