Hello

#

Do have a request ID for the error you are seeing?

#

And are you using a SetupIntent here?

#

It sounds like you may be using a PaymentIntent and trying to set it to £0.00?

#

Hi Bis thanks for the reply, were not using a setup intent as we already have the card setup

#

but trying a payment

woeful creek
#

Then I don't really understand what you are doing...

granite blaze
#

some background we are a taxi company, the customer gets a free taxi but has to pay for any extras like waiting or parking

#

to authorise the free taxi we need to take a payment

#

(or hold a card)

woeful creek
#

But you said you already have the card setup?

#

So why are you trying to charge it for $0?

an example

#

its just how we done it previously with our old supplier, we attempted / checked it was still valid on each transaction

#

If you want to re-authorize it for $0 then you would use a SetupIntent.

granite blaze
#

thanks, so just if zero Setupintent

woeful creek
#

Yep pretty much.

#

Is the idea here that you collected the card a long time ago?

granite blaze
#

these are clients who are very loose with their payment methods 🙂

#

get a lot of "ive lost my card" which resulted in unpaid bills

woeful creek
#

Gotcha, then yes, the way to attempt an authorization ahead of time for $0 is to use a SetupIntent.

#

But yeah you should also always be ready to handle declines as that is just a part of payment processing.

#

Thank you so much sorry for the silly question a unique type of customer and were kind of fresh on stripe, only meant out TAM today

woeful creek
#

#

granite blaze
