#

thanks looking

#

@sour linden okay per https://docs.stripe.com/payments/paypal/set-up-future-payments?platform=web&ui=API recurring payments with Paypal require approval. Unfortunately it seems to "just work" in Test mode and only error in Live mode. It's definitely not good and I'm sorry this caused your errors. But right now you'll have to get approval to do recurring payments with Paypal. Or use send_invoice instead

#

what does recurring payments mean in this context? the invoice is for a single order without any future payments

#

maybe I should clearify our invoice setup

quiet flint Mar 12, 2024, 4:48 PM

#

yes but you are using charge_automatically which is when you already have a saved payment method on file which implies off session or recurring payments.

sour linden Mar 12, 2024, 4:49 PM

#

ah, I see

#

with our setup we create the payment method via payment elements, send it to our server and use it to confirm the payment intend created by the invoice.

#

yeah sadly that isn't really compatible with this flow without having recurring payments enabled first unfortunately.
