Hi 👋 is there specific information in there that Event which you're referring to?

In general, that Payment Method was created by your frontend code, leveraging at least our Payment Element.

yea, the event shows, that the payment method was just attached to the customer. Nothing more happend with the payment method. But through the payment method the stripe customer got a name... My main problem is: how to get the name without asking for it. Then I saw how stripe does it and was confused where stripe got the data from and now I am here 🙂

[thorny flame]

The Payment Element created a Payment Method with a type of card, it will require the collection of the customer name for those. You should be able to see that behavior in your test version of your flow.

[pastel tartan]

normally that's the case, yes. But the stripe payment elements only asking for card nummber, expire date, cvc and the country. Nothing more

[thorny flame]

Sorry, I was mistaken, the Payment Element does not collect names for card Payment Methods. So I'm not sure offhand where that information would be coming from. Did you integrate the Address Element into your checkout page? If not, it may just be Apple Pay providing those details.

[pastel tartan]

I haven't used the address element. Yea, apple pay could be a thing... 🤔

What the default process for collecting a name? Should a name be in every payment?

[thorny flame]

If you need names, you should include your own field to collect them or leverage our Address Element. If you don't need names for your flows, then you don't need to force the collection of them. The Payment Element would collect them if they were beneficial to approval rates.

alright, that helps a lot. Thanks! 👍
