@worldly charm Can you clarify what you mean "charge the payment after"?
worldly charm
so i created a checkout session so that customer can add the payment method at a certain stage in my site
now i want to charge the customer for the payment method which the user added
i was following this https://docs.stripe.com/payments/save-and-reuse
step 5 is a bit confusing
in step 5 it asks us to use payment intent https://docs.stripe.com/api/payment_intents/confirm
but in step 4 i dont get anything related to payment intent in the response
uncut otter
Sorry that's still really confusing to me. Why are you using the Checkout Session in setup mode if you're taking a payment right after?
worldly charm
lets take some example
customer creates an account on my site, after account creation, i trigger the checkout session in setup mode and he enters his payment details in it.
after 5-6 days he wish to order a product from my site, now when he clicks on the checkout button he gets redirected to stripe with his saved payment method
i hope this makes sense now
uncut otter
ah okay so the payment is 5/6 days later.
Honestly I think you're optimizing for the wrong thing. If you are going to send them back to Checkout 5/6 days later, there's no point collecting the card details upfront
worldly charm
i mean they can use the same payment method multiple times
what would you suggest?
uncut otter
If you send them to Checkout, don't bother getting them to pre-save their card details. Checkout doesn't show the previously saved card anyway except in a really specific flow.
So I would say just send them to Checkout by creating a new Checkout Session with mode: 'payment' this time and it will all just work
worldly charm
i understand what you are trying to say
but this is the business requirement
i dont have an ecom site i just gave you an example
uncut otter
Just to be clear, I work for Stripe, I know our products inside out. What you are trying to do will not work. When they come back 5/6 days later they won't see the card they had before
worldly charm
So for what time span does the payment details remain ?
uncut otter
It's really complex. But if you want to go deep I recommend carefully reading: https://support.stripe.com/questions/prefilling-saved-cards-in-checkout

PCI Compliance SAQ A will work with the above approach you mentioned?
uncut otter
yes, PCI is completely unrelated.
worldly charm
Okay
just to make sure i expressed my use case in a better way, i am summarising the things here
I wanted to attach a payment method to a customer so that i can charge it at a later stage
worldly charm
It's really complex. But if you want to go deep I recommend carefully reading: <...
but i want to charge for any payment method
uncut otter
I don't know what those words mean unfortunately "for any payment method".
I asked and you explicitly said you are sending the customer to Checkout when they come back 5 days later
worldly charm
Suppose a user adds paypal on setup
ah man this is getting complex
sorry to bother
Can you help me with this one please?
https://docs.stripe.com/payments/save-and-reuse
uncut otter
You need to clarify your question for me to help you
worldly charm
Step 4 says
Using the setup_intent ID, retrieve the SetupIntent object. The returned object contains a payment_method ID that you can attach to a customer in the next step.
but in step 5 payment intent is used and for confirming payment payment intent id is compulsory, but in step 4 i didnt received any paymentIntent object
uncut otter
Gotcha, you are misunderstanding the whole thing I think.
What it's telling you is that in the future you can charge the Customer by creating a PaymentIntent and passing the PaymentMethod pm_12345 you got from the SetupIntent (on Checkout)
