The ExpressCheckoutElement does not require a client secret; you don't need to create a PaymentIntent first/before you're able to present the ExpressCheckoutElement to your customer

Then I do not understand how, if not by the PaymentIntent, do I safely dictate to the ExpressCheckoutElement what to do in terms of amount etc
