but what if I were to use Payment Element, would this still be possible or would need stripe customer to render payment element?
Yes you can achieve this without asking for the customer email

Does stripe create new customer when the same email is being used to complete the checkout?
You can have two Stripe Customer objects with the same email

[sturdy creek]

so how would this person manage their subscriptions, would he need to go to 2 different customer portals?

[verbal shard]

Yes

unless you create the same Customer object for them

in that case you need to create a single Stripe Customer per email/phone and keep using it for all subscription/payments

[sturdy creek]

So it would work the same as with stripe checkout, there would be additional email input rendered with payment element, if customer is not passed?

[verbal shard]

Not always with PaymentElement you'll get an email field

Ideally, you should handle this in your integration by collecting the customer details and make sur to have a dedicated Stripe Customer object before/while rendering the PaymentElement

okay got it
