Hi, you can use this integration, https://docs.stripe.com/payments/build-a-two-step-confirmation that would allow you to inpect the payment method details before you create the PaymentIntent.

That's useful, but I think there are still scenarios when the payment method is unknown until it's paid – like invoices with collection_method=send_invoice

You could also use https://docs.stripe.com/connect/platform-pricing-tools/pricing-schemes as you mentioned here as well.
Alternatively, for invoices that is collected at a later time, you could price them with a flat rate. You can calculate it by taking teh average of your existing flows where you have collection_method=send_invoice
Are you still here?
digital zephyr
Yeah, trying to figure out how I can use flat rate prices for this.
My main issue with price schemes is that subscription payments need to have a higher fee than a non-subscription invoices. And I don't see a way to do it easily with the pricing schemes. The approach with metadata does not always work too, because the payment intent might be confirmed before the async workers react to the webhook events by actually setting the metadata.

I can't be of much help on the price settings for the pricing schemes as we're here to help developers with their code. However, I think overall the combination from the above recommendations would work. For payments made on the checkout page, use https://docs.stripe.com/payments/build-a-two-step-confirmation. Then, for paments made on collection_method=send_invoice, you calculate a flat rate/ average rate that applies to all invoices sent.

Got it, thanks

Sure
