Hello! You mentioned "I noticed that the payment intent creates an invoice charge" and I want to make sure I'm clear; are you using Stripe Invoices, or is that refering to your own invoice system?

So I am using the stripe paymentIntent api to create a payment for the customer on stripe

Gotcha. Payment Intents create Charges, so the Charge Events you're used to will still fire. Be aware, though, that a Payment Intent might create multiple Charges. For example, in a scenario where a Payment Intent takes three tries to succeed (two declines followed by an authorization) you'd see three Charges associated with it.

ah... so if the first charge fails will the payment intent retry it and can create a new charge?
the previous charge API didn't use to retry.

We don't retry Payment Intent payments automatically, it's something you can do on your end though.
Basically you can try to confirm the same Payment Intent multiple times.
Until it succeeds.

ah ok. Cool, thank you for that info.
