At the moment I have created the subscription as suggested to me beforehand. The subscription status shows "Paid".

#

Now,I would like to know what actions should I take in-case a customer's payment method is declined on the next due date of the subscriptions.

#

I am using the Stripe API for integration.

If the payment fails for an invoice, Stripe will not send email to the customer. An invoice.paid event will be sent to inform about the payment failure and you will bring the customer back to collect the new payment method. Here's the guide to handle such scenario: https://stripe.com/docs/billing/subscriptions/webhooks#payment-failures

Noted. Do I use the PaymentIntents API or the SetupIntent API to create a flow to collect new payments ?

#

Secondly, how can I use a previously stored card, which was supplied by a customer for a one-time payment, and re-use that card for a subscription?

The steps will be:

Update the Payment Intent of the latest invoice to save the new payment method with setup_future_usage: 'off_session': https://stripe.com/docs/api/payment_intents/update#update_payment_intent-setup_future_usage
Use Payment Intent to collect the payment method details
After the payment method details is collected, the update the default_payment_method of the subscription: https://stripe.com/docs/api/subscriptions/update#update_subscription-default_payment_method

If the payment method has been saved, it can be updated to the default_payment_method of the subscription as well
