Hello!

The way to do this would be to leverage metadata
Otherwise, yes, you would need multiple PaymentIntents as you can only set one shipping.address
winged pivot
Yeah, I think that's the only way.
Because there's no way that I have found to impact the sales tax nexus thresholds. It happens automatically.
vital hollow
I'm not sure what you are referring to with the "sales tax nexus thresholds".... I assume that is related to a third party integration?
winged pivot
If you use Stripe's tax API, they automatically monitor your tax thresholds in every country / state.
So for example, in Missouri US, once you hit $100,000 USD in transactions you automatically meet that state's threshold for capturing and remitting sales tax.
In Michigan US, once you have had 200 transactions you meet that state's threshold, etc...
vital hollow
Ah yeah, with the Tax Calculation API it is basically assumed that there is a one-to-one relationship between PaymentIntent and product (thus shipping address)
winged pivot
Yeah, this will be frustrating to code for 🙂
For example, a customer may have 1 invoice to pay that ships to 1 state
1 invoice that ships products to 2 states
10 invoices that ship products to 10 states
Right now, all of our customers are tax-exempt, and we haven't his any thresholds, so we haven't had to collect anything. But we've just onboarded a few customers that are not exempt, and will need to use the calculatiojn API on those.
So if one of these taxable customers has a situation like the above, the code will have to drastically change :/
vital hollow
Yeah unfortunately it really isn't designed to be split up like that
winged pivot
Yeah
It may ultimately make more sense to not use Stripe's threshold monitoring at all and completley offload this to TaxJar or something.
vital hollow
With this specific setup that may indeed be a better choice
winged pivot
You're very responsive, I appreciate it. Are you with Stripe or just active here?
vital hollow
Yes I work at Stripe -- my team staffs this channel 24/5.
winged pivot
That's awesome! Well it is much appreciated. I love Stripe, I've used your platform since v1 when you guys were the first to tokenize cc numbers.
