Full code, since it won't fit into the form:
return await stripe.subscriptions.create({
customer: customerId,
items,
payment_behavior: 'default_incomplete',
payment_settings: { save_default_payment_method: 'on_subscription' },
expand: ['latest_invoice.payment_intent', 'pending_setup_intent'],
automatic_tax: { enabled: true },
});

Hi, let me help you with this.
Could you please share the error Request ID req_xxx? https://support.stripe.com/questions/finding-the-id-for-an-api-request
fickle harness
Hey, sure, just one sec
Currently, we get customer billing information on the payment step, using PaymentElement:
But since we need to create a subscription to then generate a payment intent, we are not sure how to store the location before making the POST v1/subscription call

Yes, I understand. What you can do here is collect payment/billing details before creating the Subscription. The article is about creating the PaymentIntent, but the principle is the same: https://docs.stripe.com/payments/accept-a-payment-deferred

👋 the doc @cobalt dagger shared also has a section for subscriptions flow which is what you'd need
Here's a deeplink: https://docs.stripe.com/payments/accept-a-payment-deferred?platform=web&type=subscription

Hey, thank you for the feedback.
That's exactly what we do at the moment:
- We create the customer
- We render the component to collect payment details
- We create a subscription that will be treated as
incompleteby stripe - The front-end uses the payment intent to use payment details to charge the customer
But when we try to create the subscription on step #3 without having a card linked to the customer, after adding the automatic_tax flag, it fails, since Stripe hasn't received the card details yet
hollow lance
The flow we linked above collects the PaymentMethod details without requiring an Intent
Step 3 is where you collect the payment method details and tokenize it.
Step 7 is where you confirm the subscription (where the payment method gets charged)
fickle harness
Ah, perfect!
I couldn't find on the documentation the call we use to "tokenize" the payment method on step 3... Here we are not sending that data to the back-end, are we?
hollow lance
You're not sending it to your backend, no.
But if you're listening to Webhook events then you'd likely receive appropriate events.
fickle harness
Ah, sorry. When i said back-end I meant sending the data to Stripe.
Here we are just rendering the component from what I understood, but where to we generate a payment method?
hollow lance
Submitting the element sends the payment method info to Stripe and creates a PaymentMethod
