I don't really grasp the question, can you elaborate?

I have a customer "cus_PR17aZfXrW5lQm" when i buy a subscription with the portal. I select a payment method like paypal.
Then I have to enter my name and address there again. But stripe already contains that data.

Can you share the UI you're looking at so that I am on the same page?
If I had to guess, we might not have a way to prefill the information for specific payment methods that use third-party interface

ah are you asking about prefilling name under the specific payment methods tab?
candid holly
Yes mainly address. Because now the customer has entered all the information on the platform. Then he pays and has to fill it in again.

You seem to be allowing customers to update their address
https://dashboard.stripe.com/test/logs/req_A02jMZVz5OVSiN
address: "auto",
name: "auto",
},```So i need the set it to 'never'?

I get the error "Tax ID collection requires updating business name on the customer. To enable tax ID collection for an existing customer, please set customer_update[name] to auto." when i set it to never

That's required if you're passing customer and tax_id_collection[enabled]:
Since the collection of a business name could result in the Customer’s existing name being overridden, you must set customer_update[name] to auto when creating the Session.
https://stripe.com/docs/tax/checkout/tax-ids#existing-customers:~:text=Since the collection,creating the Session.
I don't know if we pass saved address details from the customer to PayPal unfortunately
I'll quickly test
Hmm, no way to really test this as we don't actually utilise the PayPal redirect in test mode
Can you omit the tax_id_collection parameter from your session creation and then try PayPal?
candid holly
So adress can be never and name must by auto?
silent lark
Should work
candid holly
Is it also possible dat adress is visisble but already defined from the stripe customer?
silent lark
Visible where?
silent lark
Shipping or billing address?
candid holly
both
silent lark
We don't prefill the shipping address no. The billing address would be prefilled from the selected payment method
