I'm afraid there is no-code solution to collect the payment method only, be it using Setup Intent or not.

A Stripe customer has to be created first, then using code to create a Checkout Session in setup mode (https://docs.stripe.com/payments/save-and-reuse?platform=web&ui=stripe-hosted) or use Setup Intent directly (https://docs.stripe.com/payments/save-and-reuse?platform=web&ui=elements) to collect and save a payment method.

So you're saying it has to be done using the API? What if I created a payment link for a $0 product? If the payment is completed, wouldn't that effectively create the customer with default credit card?

You will not be able to create a Payment Link with $0 product

#

Saving a payment method can only be done with API

Thanks @daring solstice . Can you think of any other way that I can store a customer's default payment method without writing custom code to hit the Stripe API directly? Or am I completely shit outta luck?

I see. So this is basically a way for a customer to self-manage their Customer account, can add their own payment methods, etc. I see how this could work, though it's a lot of extra steps that my customers have to jump through just to store a credit card on file.

Do I have that right @daring solstice ?
