#Mephist0 - Stripe Objects
1 messages · Page 1 of 1 (latest)
Hello! A Payment Intent is a lower-level Stripe object designed to collect payment for a single specific amount. An Invoice is a higher-level Stripe object that includes details like name, address, line items, a memo, etc. Invoices generate Payment Intents to collect the total amount due.
In practice, it will be better to create an invoice? Or with the Payment Intent would be enough? Is it possible create an invoice setting up a payment right away using a credit card tokenized?
It depends on your use case and what you want to do. Can you tell me more about the payment flow you want to build?
So far we have two payment flows. The very first is with subscriptions to enable the creation of a group and then persons that will join that group and pay a small amount to be part of it
For the first flow it's fine since it's a normal subscription and then invoices are created automatically for the subscription
for the second we were in doubt if just going directly with a payment intent
But I think we'll end up going with a payment intent to simplify the flow, since there is not much extra needed, we just need to collect that amount and nothing else..
Just in case we evaluate in a future to use invoices, is it possible to use a tokenized credit card as a payment?
That sounds reasonable. Payment Intents are simpler.
Yeah, you can use a tokenized card saved/attached to a Customer to pay for an Invoice.
Perfect, thank you very much Rubeus, have a good day!!!
