Hello, the way default payment methods work is that we use the default set on the subscription if it exists and we use the default on the customer if the one on the subscription if that is not set. For specific invoices, if you retrieve the invoice it will have a payment_method property that shows the PM ID that was used.

Hi, got it. By experimenting with the on_subscription option, the ID parameter is set directly in the default_payment_method field of the subscription object. I say this because through the CLI command, I saw that the payment_method field of the Invoice object is set to null.
I assume that by removing the on_subscription option, the id of that paymentMethod is inserted into the invoice?

Can you show me your code with the on_subscription option? I'm not finding that param in our API reference

I mean this:
"payment_settings: { save_default_payment_method: 'on_subscription' }"
It can be accessed on the following link: https://docs.stripe.com/billing/subscriptions/build-subscriptions?platform=web&ui=elements

Ah gotcha, forgot about that setting. That setting actually should specifically mean that the payment method gets set as the default for the subscription. Removing it would be expected to mean that the PM is no longer set as the default
