hi there, can you give me an example Payment Intent ID (pi_1234) that you're experiencing this problem with?

are you calling stripe.confirmPayPalPayment() as described here? https://docs.stripe.com/payments/paypal/accept-a-payment?payment-ui=direct-api#confirm-paypal-payment

i use the whole express checkout element, do i have to make that seperate for every possible payment option (klarna, paypal, ..) ? my compaarable code looks like this ``` const { error } = await stripe.confirmPayment({
clientSecret: clientSecret,
confirmParams: {
shipping: {
name: shippingAddress.name,
address: {
line1: shippingAddress.address.line1,
city: shippingAddress.address.city,
country: shippingAddress.address.country,
postal_code: shippingAddress.address.postalCode,
state: shippingAddress.address.state,
}
},
return_url: ${window.location.origin}/complete,
},
});

    if (error) {
        setMessage(`Zahlungsfehler nach Bestätigung: ${error.message}`);
    } else {
         setMessage("Zahlung initiiert. Wenn kein Fenster geöffnet wurde, ist die Weiterleitung blockiert.");
    }```

yes, Klarna has a similar method called stripe.confirmKlarnaPayment()

humble bay Nov 18, 2025, 4:10 PM

#

i tried like this but it gives me same result

#

can you share the part of your code that is calling stripe.confirmPayPalPayment() ?

const handleExpressCheckoutConfirm = async ({ paymentMethod, shippingAddress, shippingRate }) => {
        
        setIsLoading(true); 
        setMessage(null);

        if (!clientSecret) {
            setMessage("Error: Client Secret fehlt. Bitte die Warenkorbseite neu laden.");
            setIsLoading(false);
            return;
        }

        if (!stripe || !elements) {
            setMessage("Error: Stripe/Elements nicht initialisiert.");
            setIsLoading(false);
            return;
        }
        
        if (!paymentMethod || paymentMethod.type !== 'paypal') {
             setMessage("Error: PayPal Zahlungsmethode wurde nicht korrekt bereitgestellt.");
             setIsLoading(false);
             return;
        }

        const {error} = await stripe.confirmPayPalPayment(
        '{{PAYMENT_INTENT_CLIENT_SECRET}}',
        {
            return_url: `${window.location.origin}/complete`,
        }
        );

        if (error) {
            setMessage(`Zahlungsfehler nach Bestätigung: ${error.message}`);
        } else {
             setMessage("Zahlung initiiert. Wenn kein Fenster geöffnet wurde, ist die Weiterleitung blockiert.");
        }
        
        setIsLoading(false); 
    };```

#

you need to change '{{PAYMENT_INTENT_CLIENT_SECRET}}' to pass in the client secret from the Payment Intent creation

humble bay Nov 18, 2025, 4:25 PM

#

still no redirect

#

        const {error} = await stripe.confirmPayPalPayment(
        clientSecret,
        {
            return_url: `${window.location.origin}/complete`,
        }
        );```

ashen copper Nov 18, 2025, 4:29 PM

#

any errors in your console? or output from that setMessage() function?

humble bay Nov 18, 2025, 4:30 PM

#

no

ashen copper Nov 18, 2025, 4:32 PM

#

have you confirmed that stripe.confirmPayPalPayment() is actually getting called? try adding some console logs around it just to make sure the code is progressing to that point

humble bay Nov 18, 2025, 4:40 PM

#

console.log('1')


    // 1. LOGIK FÜR EXPRESS CHECKOUT
    const handleExpressCheckoutConfirm = async ({ paymentMethod, shippingAddress, shippingRate }) => {
        
        console.log('2')

        setIsLoading(true); 
        setMessage(null);

        if (!clientSecret) {
            setMessage("Error: Client Secret fehlt. Bitte die Warenkorbseite neu laden.");
            setIsLoading(false);
            return;
        }

        if (!stripe || !elements) {
            setMessage("Error: Stripe/Elements nicht initialisiert.");
            setIsLoading(false);
            return;
        }
        
        if (!paymentMethod || paymentMethod.type !== 'paypal') {
             setMessage("Error: PayPal Zahlungsmethode wurde nicht korrekt bereitgestellt.");
             setIsLoading(false);
             return;
        }

        const {error} = await stripe.confirmPayPalPayment(
        clientSecret,
        {
            return_url: `${window.location.origin}/complete`,
        },

        console.log('3')

        );

        if (error) {
            setMessage(`Zahlungsfehler nach Bestätigung: ${error.message}`);
        } else {
             setMessage("Zahlung initiiert. Wenn kein Fenster geöffnet wurde, ist die Weiterleitung blockiert.");
        }
        
        setIsLoading(false); 
    };
``` console log 1 gets called three times, console log 2 only one time when i enter my paypal details and log 3 doesnt show at all

👋 Taking over this thread, catching up now

#

Sorry for the confusion. For Express Checkout Element, stripe.confirmPayment() should work for all the supported wallet payment methods. You shouldn't need to integrate the payment method individually.

when i use expresscheckoutelement and enter my correct sandbox information in the paypal window, it closes, but keeps my site on freeze and tells me to proceed with my payment in the open paypal window or use another method.
Could you share the full code of which you integrate the Express Checkout Element with the onConfirm handler, handleExpressCheckoutConfirm?

humble bay Nov 18, 2025, 4:57 PM

#

glad to hear that:D

Are you following this guide for your Express Checkout Element integration? https://docs.stripe.com/elements/express-checkout-element/accept-a-payment?payment-ui=elements

Express Checkout Element uses deferred intent flow, which you'd need to set the payment amount and currency in the options of Elements. There are some configurations that aren't set up correctly:

The elementsOptions should mode, currency and amount: https://docs.stripe.com/elements/express-checkout-element/accept-a-payment?payment-ui=elements#set-up-elements
clientSecret shouldn't be set elementsOptions

Could you try if this will fix the issue?

humble bay Nov 18, 2025, 5:21 PM

#

still have the issue, ```
// CHANGED THIS
// const elementsOptions = {
// clientSecret: clientSecret,
// appearance: appearance,
// };

// TO THAT
const elementsOptions = {
    mode: 'payment',
    amount: 2000,
    currency: 'usd',
    appearance: appearance,
};```

Could you share your development website, so that I can take a look what actually happens?
