I would say you want to make sure you save the card for future usage during the first payment with auth & capture, like these docs describe:
https://stripe.com/docs/payments/save-during-payment
with with manual capture you have the first hour covered
if it ends before the hour, you capture the appropriate amount (maybe all of it, maybe not, your choice)
if it takes longer, you can create another payment at the end for the adjust total amount, using the saved payment method for the customer
if its successful, you can cancel the original payment to refund it
if the larger payment needs authentication, you get your customer on session to do that, while keeping a hold on the original payment until that succeeds

awesome thank you
vital dagger
just be aware you must capture the held payment within 7 days or it will automatically refund
worthy gulch
ok cool

you could also have the second payment for just the extra amount, but a single charge for the full amount at the end is likely better

yeah looks less confusing on the bank statement probably
