Do you have an example PaymentMethod ID I can look at?

[native hill]

Yeah, let me look one up.

Is that right?

I read in the API docs that there is an allow_redisplay option that can be set on a PaymentMethod. However, if the payment method is added in the customer portal, I don't see any way of having control over that when they add a new card. I checked the API docs and nothing jumped out at me as allowing me to configure a customer portal to affect the allow_redisplay value of any payment methods a customer might add. I also don't see any options in the customer portal that would allow a customer to make the card visible later.

[honest berry]

Right right. I wanted to look at how the billing portal created this PM, give me a few mins

[native hill]

ok, let me know if you need any more code. I can share how I am creating the checkout session and customer portal, if that is helpful

[honest berry]

I think this is the guidance you're referring to: https://support.stripe.com/questions/prefilling-saved-cards-in-checkout

Though saved_payment_method_options.payment_method_save is for Checkout Sessions

Logs show that the Portal is using SetupIntents though so I'd expect future Checkout Sessions for a given customer to adhere to this logic: https://docs.stripe.com/api/checkout/sessions/create#create_checkout_session-customer

[native hill]

So in my situation, I generate a customer id with my customer's email address before they ever navigate to a stripe-hosted page.

So I already have a customer id when they navigate to the customer portal page that I generate using the following code:

stripe.billingPortal.sessions.create({
      customer: stripeCustomerId!,
      return_url: returnUrl,
      configuration: process.env.STRIPE_BILLING_PORTAL_CONFIGURATION_ID,
    });

If they follow the link provided by the above code, it takes them to a customer portal where they can add payment methods.

My problem is that these payment methods do not show up when the go to a checkout session which I generate with the following code:

stripe.checkout.sessions.create({
      customer: user.stripeCustomerId!,
      mode: 'subscription',
      line_items: [
        {
          price: priceID,
          quantity: 1,
        },
      ],
      customer_update: {
        address: 'auto',
        shipping: 'auto',
        name: 'never',
      },
      saved_payment_method_options: {
        payment_method_save: 'enabled',
        allow_redisplay_filters: ['always', 'limited', 'unspecified'],
      },
      shipping_address_collection: {
        allowed_countries: ['US'],
      },
      billing_address_collection: 'required',
      consent_collection: {
        payment_method_reuse_agreement: {
          position: 'auto',
        },
        terms_of_service: 'required',
      },
      allow_promotion_codes: true,
      payment_method_collection: 'if_required',
      // {CHECKOUT_SESSION_ID} is a string literal; do not change it!
      // the actual Session ID is returned in the query parameter when your customer
      // is redirected to the success page.
      success_url: getAppBaseURL() + 'profile',
      cancel_url: getAppBaseURL() + 'profile',
});

Based on what I see in the UI after a customer adds a payment method in the billing portal, the cards are being saved to the customer.

[honest berry]

Yeah, I see the PM that you shared was added to the customer and was made their default for invoice_settings.default_payment_method

[native hill]

On your end, are you checking the event logs to troubleshoot?

[honest berry]

I'm trying to reproduce this. So far, the only details that get pulled into Checkout from my portal-saved PM are the billing details

[native hill]

Ah, so you're having my same problem 😄

[loud geyser]

hello! stepping in on behalf of roadrunner, right now, since there is no way to configure allow_redisplay in the customer portal, I believe that we wouldn't prepopulate the PaymentMethod in a Checkout Session in subscription mode. If you want it to do so though and/or have the option available to be configured, I'd recommend writing in to https://support.stripe.com/contact/email

[native hill]

Just make a feature request?

[loud geyser]

yep
