Hi there, how can I help

pseudo oracle
#

I am currently trying to implement payment with different currencies in our store.

When selling a product I see in our code we create a paymentIntent, allowing me to pass a currency and unit price to the paymentIntent.

const paymentIntent = await stripe.paymentIntents.create({
            customer: customerId,
            metadata: {
              ...metadata,
              priceId,
            },
            amount: price.currency_options[currency].unit_amount,
            currency: currency,
            payment_method_types: ['card'],
          });
```
So this works good for me.

But when we sell subscriptions, I am not able to pass currency and unit price,  only the priceID

const subscription = await stripe.subscriptions.create({
customer: customerId,
metadata: {
...metadata,
},
items: [
{
price: priceId,
},

        ],


I read somewhere that Stripe handles different currencies automaticly in some cases. The price has NOK, EUR and Dollars as available currencies. Will stripe handle that for me?

Do I need on unique Price object for each currency? The price object already has a list of available currencies

Yeah, currencie options. What is the different between checkout and subscription creation?

#

So If we're not using checkout session, what would be a good sollution? Creating a uniqe price for each currency? Seems a bit over the top

tropic vine
#

Yes you can do that

pseudo oracle
#

Is it possible to not use the default currencie when creating the subscription?

tropic vine
#

But I'd highly recommend you using checkout for subscriptions

#

Sure, you can use other currencies for subscriptions

pseudo oracle
#

okay, and then it will be handled automaticly based on the customers location?

Question, just trying to understand our code here.
When using stripe-subscriptions.create, will the payment be done in that line of code?

tropic vine
#

No that just create a subscription

pseudo oracle
#

yeah I see it now. They are using stripe.confirmCardPayment

const confirmPayment = await stripe.confirmCardPayment(
        subscription.data.clientSecret,
        {
          payment_method: paymentMethodReq.paymentMethod.id,
        }
      );
#

This is not the same as checkout session?

tropic vine
#

No

pseudo oracle
#

So I should switch this out with a checkout-session?

#

Or won't that work?
