Hello
You want to use the pending_setup_intent in this case to collect the payment method
That SetupIntent has a client secret just like with a PaymentIntent

Thanks for the quick response.
But im no sure where to use the pending_setup_intent.
Is it when creating the subscription - using stripe.client.subscriptions.create ? or just before creating it?
unborn shell
When you create the Subscription you want to expand pending_setup_intent. You can then get the SetupIntent's client secret after the Subscription is created and pass that client secret to your frontend to be used to confirm the SetupIntent (via confirmSetup() ) which collects the payment method.

Oh right.
Thanks 🙏
