New customer will always be created in subscription mode by default if customer field is not set. If you wish to not have new customer created, customer field has to be set

Another thing, I need to Request a Tax ID, however Stripe's option IS only for businesses, in the documentation there is a warning to explícitly not use a custom Field for this or sensible data, why?

#

I believe currently I either do that or make a custom payment flow with Elements, I wanted to do everything with Checkout as a One Step Checkout, but the always creating Customer + this is being a problem

Can you share the doc link mentioning that tax ID shouldn’t be collected using custom field?

I tried that one, but It displays a "Buying as a business?" Box, and only if tagged asks for the tax id

#

If its a B2C order, not B2B, It doesnt prompt it

#

Citing documentation: If your customer is in a location supported by tax ID collection, Checkout shows a checkbox allowing the customer to indicate that they’re purchasing as a business.

Thanks for sharing! Indeed that tax_id_collection only collects business Tax ID instead of consumer's. If you wish to collect consumer's Tax ID, I'm afraid only custom payment integration is supported at the moment.

#

As a question, what is wrong with using a customField for that?

#

They appear to be securely handled like the rest of the data

What is the purpose of collecting personal Tax ID?

#

By Spanish law orders over 400€ need the Tax ID on the invoice, no Matter if B2C or B2B
