heya @bleak timber! typically you should have a login id, and already have the customer id in your database which is linked to the login id right?

#

why would you need to fetch the customer id separately?

#

well at the moment each payment by the same customer creates a new customer in stripe

#

so stripe support told me i should specify the customer id when creating the session

#

but i don't know how to fetch the customer id

#

i need to do stg like this js const session = await stripe.checkout.sessions.create({ customer_id: 'cus_123', payment_method_types: ['card'],

#

each payment by the same customer, shouldn't create a new customer in Stripe - i'm not too sure what's the context here

When you have a new user (on your website), do you create a Customer to link to that user?
