Hello
Confirming a PaymentIntent attempts to authorize a Charge. If that authorization is successful, then the Charge is automatically captured, unless you pass capture_method: 'manual' when you create your PaymentIntent in which case you capture in a separate API request. That is discussed here: https://stripe.com/docs/payments/place-a-hold-on-a-payment-method

Thank you! i actually haven't seen this doc before so def will check it out! Do you know in terms of both of these, what the customer will see while uncaptured/uncofirmed? will they see a pending charge? or will it not show up until captured/confirmed? maybe one behaves differeently?

The customer will only see an authorization on their statement from a successful confirmation. With manual capture, the authorization will apear on confirmation and then if you cancel the authorization (or don't capture the authorization within the time frame) the authorization will fall off their statement a few days later.
