i asked the same question yesterday but i wasn't able to text. i had to contact stripe support

current code

[thick yew]

After initialising payment sheet, you will need to open the payment sheet to reflect the new value

If you create the Payment Intent every time, it will hit rate limit very fast: https://docs.stripe.com/rate-limits

I'd recommend using deferred intent flow which will delay creating the payment intent until the amount is finalised: https://docs.stripe.com/payments/accept-a-payment-deferred?platform=react-native&type=payment

This was suggested by my colleage earlier: https://discord.com/channels/841573134531821608/1296268685836816489

i tried using this flow (adding a confirmHandler) but the currency still doesn't update.

[thick yew]

I don't see you updating the amount in intentConfiguration when there is an amount change. confirmHandler will only be called when the user clicks the the payment button in Payment Sheet

[gilded glacier]

oh ok. should i use a setstate to set the amount and currency before calling presentPaymentSheet?

i just tried this and the currency hasn't changed

[thick yew]

Where do you let the customer change the amount? You should update the amount in intentConfiguration in initializePaymentSheet when there is an amount change, and open the payment sheet again

[gilded glacier]

ultimately, before the checkout button is clicked and openpaymentsheet is called, i update amount and currency with the right values. in this case, i just updated them to random values in the openpaymentsheet function (right before presenting the payment sheet)

i changed the code so that amount and currencyCode in intentconfig uses the useState variables (which i update right before click)

[thick yew]

The amount should be updated in both the intentConfiguration in initializePaymentSheet and the amount in confirmHandler

[gilded glacier]

in this code, it is, right?

[thick yew]

This is not right. When there is a amount change, you should call the initializePaymentSheet before open the payment sheet. The setAmount and setCurrency should be done at where you detect these value changes, and initialise payment sheet again

You shouldn't set setAmount and setCurrency in open payment sheet since the initializePaymentSheet has been called with the old value

[gilded glacier]

oh. but once i set amount and currency, shouldn't the useeffect hook call initializepaymentsheet with the new values?

where shoudl i set amount/currency then? i'm confused

[thick yew]

In your useEffect, you didn't set amount or currency as the dependency

[gilded glacier]

oh ok. i'll set the dependecy to currency since it's the last updated. will this be the only fix?

[thick yew]

where shoudl i set amount/currency then?
You should have a change callback in your amount input to set the amount and currency

i'll set the dependecy to currency since it's the last updated. will this be the only fix?
In addition, you should also setAmount and setCurrency in the change input of your UI, not in open payment sheet

[gilded glacier]

this works. thank you so much!!!
