Hello! Yes, you can confirm it months later as long as you don't cancel the Payment Intent

thanks so much for answering so quickly!
a quick follow up however: what would push my team to use SetupIntents over just creating incomplete PaymentIntents?
Setup Intents are what you should use if you want to save a Payment Method to be used in the future but not charge it immediately
Is that different from creating an incomplete PaymentIntent that also has a PaymentMethod and leave it incomplete for a month?
They're not really comparable - an incomplete Payment Intent means that you want to charge some amount and you just haven't completed payment. A Setup Intent has no potential to charge a customer. For most folks that use Setup Intents they'll create + confirm the Setup Intent to properly configure the Payment Method and when it's time to actually charge the customer in the future that's when they create the Payment Intent
