Hello
Yes, you can request a new mandate or provide mandate_data parameter if you've already collected mandate from the customer before - https://docs.stripe.com/api/payment_intents/create#create_payment_intent-mandate_data
ruby shell
ok.. and is that required for a us_bank_account payment method? in the situation like my example requestid that i submitted, i should definitely request a new mandate in my payment intent request? or is that optional for that payment method?
cobalt condor
It isn't optional as far as I know. It is required. https://docs.stripe.com/payments/ach-direct-debit#mandates
ruby shell
ok. i just wanted to make sure. mandates feel very "permanant" so i want to make sure i'm setting them up properly.
for context, we keep a copy of the payment method id and mandate id on our side; and just before we run a charge i am looking up the mandate details via a Stripe API call. Sounds like I will want to modify the logic for an inactive mandate to request a new one and replace our local stored mandate identifier with the newly created one when the payment intent completes.
ruby shell
i think that is what i'm going to do by default; our customers are gyms/fitness centers so typically the PMs are used for recurring charges like monthly memberships, etc. But they can also be used for one-off charges like a the store to buy a t-shirt or something.
ok.. thank you for the quick and helpful reply! i appreciate you!
