Hi! If you plan to use embedded checkout then you will require the client secret: https://docs.stripe.com/payments/checkout/save-and-reuse?payment-ui=embedded-form
Can I check what are you referring to with sessionID?
void axle
Noted! So you don't need the client secret. You can see the steps here: https://docs.stripe.com/payments/checkout/save-and-reuse?payment-ui=stripe-hosted

thanks @void axle
I went thru that but still not clear if URL will suffice.
also, this link will be sent to the customer via email. How do we get the payment method after the customer goes through? Is there webhook that we can listen to?
I see 'checkout.session.completed' webhook event.
void axle
I am unsure what do you mean by if URL will suffice. You can listen for a few events such as: payment_method.attached, setup_intent.succeeded. These provide you with the payment method ID (starts with pm) and the customer ID (starts with cus_).
woeful nymph
I meant URL in the checkout session.
can we send the URL in the checkout session to the customers so that they can add bank account?
or is there any else that we need to send?
void axle
Got it! Yes, you can just send the URL to the customet and they can provide their payment method details.
I would suggest creating a test Checkout Session and going through the flow. This will give you a better idea on how this works.
woeful nymph
yes, will do.
and for the webhook, will 'checkout.session.completed' be good?
this will get the 'SessionID' that I can use to retrieve the payment method and attach that to the Customer.
Is that right approach?
void axle
Yes checkout.session.completed is the correct event.
- You can use the event to get the Checkout Session ID (cs) to retrieve the Checkout Session.
- From there you can use the Setup Intent ID to retrieve the setup intent object (seti).
- And then you can retrieve payment method object from the Setup Intent object.

thank you!
lastly, because this is done via email - what value should I add for the successURL & redirectURL?
void axle
I don't see a redirectURL. Are you referring to the return_url?
If yes, return_url can only be used if ui_mode is embedded or custom.
https://docs.stripe.com/api/checkout/sessions/create#create_checkout_session-return_url
For success_url you should pass a URL to which Stripe should send customers when payment or setup is complete.
