đ Welcome to your new thread!
â˛ď¸ We'll be here soon! Typically we respond in a few minutes, but sometimes we might take a bit longer if the server is busy or if you have a particularly tricky question.

đ Have more to share? Add more details, code, screenshots, videos, etc. below.
I could just add a payment method to the invoice, but the docs on creating an invoice say:
When charging automatically, Stripe will attempt to pay this invoice using the default source attached to the customer.
Actually, I think I answered my own question haha
@crystal sparrow Okay so the code you shared only create the Invoice. It never finalized the Invoice, which can take a couple hours if you let our systems do it for you
Just because it's the only method, doesn't mean it's default...
and yeah there are a few things about "the default payment method"
see https://docs.stripe.com/billing/subscriptions/payment-methods-setting too in case it helps
Ok thanks. I think I understand how that works with the default payment method now.
What about if customers have credit balance, how can I automatically apply that to an invoice since it isn't a payment method?
It's applied automatically, see https://docs.stripe.com/billing/customer/balance
Perfect, thank you

Another question, let me know if I should start a new thread or if this isn't the right place. I'm going through and charging the already existing invoices manually, and got this message on a few. What does it mean?
Scratch that, found an article

haha glad you can self serve quickly!
