@verbal oxide that code is for Stripe Checkout https://stripe.com/docs/payments/checkout
We don't yet support ACH Debit on Checkout unfortunately so that won't be possible

Ok no problem. Would there be another way to create a subscription using ACH Debit? I was able to create a one time charge using Plaid tokens:

cust = stripe.Customer.create(
    description="My First Test Customer (created for API docs)",
    source=bank_account_token,
)


charg = stripe.Charge.create(
    amount=2000,
    currency="usd",
    customer=cust.id,
    description="My First Test Charge (created for API docs)",
    capture=True,
)

The first part creates a Customer and saves their bank account. After that, instead of creating a Charge, you would create a Subscription using https://stripe.com/docs/api/subscriptions/create

Ok sounds good I'll use this method. Just to double check, I believe Plaid bank_account_token's can normally be used only once, but once the Customer is created, the Subscription will be able to charge the Customer bank account for Subscription fees every month/year/etc?

correct, you use the token once to save/attach it to a customer and then it can be charged every month/year
