Hi hanzo.
One more information, similarly in the legacy code we have updaed the user card. and in except handling we have provided multiple error scenarios provided by Stripe such as stripe.error.CardError or stripe.error.InvalidRequestError or stripe.error.AuthenticationError

Hello
For these two payment methods, there's no way to test them out comprehensively in a way you would test, for example - a card
Also Since these methods don;t support non USD currencies and am not passing country so how will it take that amazon and cashapp is supported or not? And by chance it adds amazon pay as a default payment method for non USD currency then what might happen at renewal?
When you try to charge a payment method with a non-supported currency, you would see an API error.. You should be able to test it out..
rigid sky
But since when creating the checkout I am not passing amount or currency then how will take that the currency is supproted or not in this case?
It will directly update it and maybe then give error at time of subcription renewal.

How exactly are you charging these payment methods? You are creating subscriptions by calling the subscriptions API correct?
Oh.. You're using setup mode checkout sessions to update customer's attached payment methods
When you use checkout in setup mode, it doesn't really update their default payment method (which is used for subscriptions)
rigid sky
Yes, I just need the setup_intent to update the payment_methods
vestal grove
So you'd need to update that first and on renewal you'd see the error
rigid sky
I am updating the default payment method afterwards using the payment_method ID
vestal grove
Is there a reason you're creating these Checkout Sessions yourself?
Customer Portal might be a better fit for this and can handle making eligible payment methods available automatically: https://docs.stripe.com/customer-management/activate-no-code-customer-portal
rigid sky
And then updating the default payment method using the payment_method of the subscriptions obj
rigid sky
Is there a reason you're creating these Checkout Sessions yourself?
Customer P...
I know but our company wants all these things to be available on our site itself instead of using customer portal itself
and hence I cam up with this solution
Which is working but not sure of error cases, one being currencies thing
vestal grove
To do this manually, you'd want to geolocate the customer using their IP or some other way.. Then create a checkout session for supported payment methods in their region..
does that help clarify?
rigid sky
i.e. while creating checkout session I should pass a additional param or maybe the user's ongoing subscription currency that will automatically detect and give me error
vestal grove
So there's a way for checkout to render only the supported methods (using automatic payment methods) but in your case, you're explicitly passing payment_method_types parameter and setting that to cashapp and amazon pay.
if you take out payment_method_types then checkout would only render supported payment methods for the customer_id you're passing in.. the customer should have a currency assigned after you create the subscription: https://docs.stripe.com/api/customers/object#customer_object-currency
rigid sky
Since I am not charging the user and only need amazon and cashapp to be enabled for the renewals. I did this.
