Hi there 👋 you'll want to use the function shown in the sample here to retrieve the Customer object:
https://stripe.com/docs/api/customers/retrieve?lang=php
Then check the invoice_settings.default_payment_method or default_source field on the Customer object (depending on where you're setting that value) to get the ID of their default payment method.

[green lantern]

Thank you toby, then I need to catch default_payment_method up and use it to get the last4?

[royal atlas]

Yes, you can either retrieve the Payment Method using that ID:
https://stripe.com/docs/api/payment_methods/retrieve?lang=php

Or you can use expand when retrieving the Customer to expand the Payment Method inline and get all of the information in one request:
https://stripe.com/docs/api/expanding_objects?lang=php
You would want to expand invoice_settings.default_payment_method

[green lantern]

Fixed! Is it nominal

to get an empty array?

I used a testing customer_id

[hollow sandal]

Which customer id?

[green lantern]

is it safe to send this data?

[hollow sandal]

Yeah customer id isn't sensitive

Also send the code snippet you used

[green lantern]

alright thank you! cus_OprBn6o8zKJ6RP

$stripe = new \Stripe\StripeClient(config('app.stripe_secret'));
        $stripe->customers->retrieve(
            'cus_OprBn6o8zKJ6RP',
            ['expand' => ['invoice_settings.default_payment_method']]
        );
        return [$stripe];

[hollow sandal]

Yeah that's expected. That customer doesn't have invoice_settings.default_payment_method set

So that's why it was empty

[green lantern]

When I subscribed at the checkout and used 424242424242, doesn't automatically grab that card number as default payment method?

[hollow sandal]

No that's something you need to set

[green lantern]

Is there some setting or something in the dashboard? I am using Stripe Checkout

[hollow sandal]

No you need to make an update customer call and pass the payment method id: https://stripe.com/docs/api/customers/update?lang=php#update_customer-invoice_settings-default_payment_method

[green lantern]

I have to handle this with webhooks?

If i go to user stripe dashboard billing I can see I have a payment method

[hollow sandal]

Yeah doing it through webhooks would be best

Are you accepting subscriptions or 1-time payments?

[green lantern]

I am accepting subscriptions

[hollow sandal]

Gotcha

Yeah webhooks are the best way I think

[green lantern]

Got it working, thank you so much @hollow sandal

[hollow sandal]

No problem

[green lantern]

Is there a way to associate a subscription item with some token or value?

I am thinking on how to handle when a subscriptor cancels one seat of the subscription (decrements the quantity by 1) how to identify that specific seat with my ddbb and got their other seats working, but the cancelled one down

[hollow sandal]

Couldn't you store subscription item id's in your database?

Or is it just 1 item?

With multiple quantities?

[green lantern]

Yep, exact is one item with multiple quantities

For example one item with 3 at quantity column

[hollow sandal]

This is something you'd need to keep track of in your db then
