Hi 👋 I'll need a lot more context here. Did you have a Payment Method attached to the Customer, and set as the default payment method for their Invoices, when the payment attempted to process? Which test card are you using to test this flow?

Hey Toby!

This is the test card I used:
Greece (GR) 4000003000000030 Visa

Yes, I had a payment method attached to the customer. The payment method was attached through the "SetupIntent" flow.
No I did not set the payment method as default, I thought that it would link automatically after the trial ends, as it's done with subscriptions that don't have a free trial.

Can you elaborate on what you mean by "link automatically", are you referring to using the payment_settings.save_default_payment_method parameter when creating the Subscription?

#

We have 2 flows in my application:

Free trial (this is where the payment method seems to not be linked to my subscription)
Non free trial, charge user immediately (I think here, the stripe SDK link the payment method client-side)

#

How would I go about, if I want to link a payment method to a free trial subscription?
Should I set it as default?

When are you collecting payment method details from your customer in relation to when you create the Subscription object?

paper crystal Mar 12, 2024, 2:51 PM

#

Independently. We first create a setup intent that is confirmed by our client application and then create the subscription object.

Do i need to pass some setting to the subscription creation to automatically link the payment method after the free trial?
