Hi! So you want to save customers' payment details without actually charging them until later, ya?

[summer lance]

Hey!

yea thats correct - just wanna charge them day of booking

[upper siren]

Cool cool. The process for doing that is described here: https://docs.stripe.com/payments/save-and-reuse

[summer lance]

yep, been going over that

so the bit im stuck at is that when creating the setupintent

we need to pass a customer, however the customer would have not inputted their email yet in order for the form to be rendered, howerver i see other companies do this process of saving and reusing without needing email until the form is rendered

wondering if i am doing somethign wrong here

[upper siren]

You don't need an email to create a Customer: https://docs.stripe.com/payments/save-and-reuse#create-customer

[summer lance]

[summer lance]
