That's all it offers, to calculate the tax included final amount. If you want to mark it, use the metadata on the PaymentIntent

Ok, but my understanding is that enabling Stripe Tax keeps a record of tax I collect so I can report it. How do I record and report that I collected tax on a paymentIntent?

I'm thinking the paymentIntent api is not suitable if tax is involved, so I might have to use checkout for this so the tax calculations/reporting are automatic?

[charred wraith]

That's correct. Checkout would be way easier. This custom tax guide is for how to use the tax engine, but you would need to reconcile, create the report on your own

ie. Listing one-off PaymentIntent, look at the metadata you set, and generate a report

Ok, no worries. Thanks.

I'm setting up the checkout session. If I add metadata to the session, will it come through on the customer.payment_succeeded webhook?

If you use Checkout Session the Tax is calculated automatically, why still use metadata?
