Hi what's your question?

#

My colleague suggested a different approach that should be a bit better

agile timber Feb 16, 2024, 1:54 PM

#

So the one we are using is not the recommended? It’s a different and not correct method?

#

Because sounds weird to me we have to be charged to verify a payment method

#

Correct what my colleague recommended is the recommended approach. See this as well: https://support.stripe.com/questions/check-if-a-card-is-valid-without-a-charge

No charge needed

#

Our developer says: We already perform this process by setting up the payment intent from the app. Then, in the API, we retrieve the payment method, and through that payment method, we obtain the charge. Additionally, Stripe automatically checks whether the payment method and card are valid or not.

#

Is he wrong?

#

Did you read the links we sent?

#

Our recommended approach uses SetupIntent not PaymentIntent

#

Also we really only help developers directly in here

Thanks for your help. I’ve forwarded the information
