There shouldn't be any need for you to update setup_future_usage - I belive it should be already set

when the subscription is payed with that payment_intent, the details for it in the dashboard say "This payment successfully set up pm_1JmRgQJZYU3zUqpIoDTqrcyJ for future off-session payments" but that customer still doesn't have a default card setup

You need to set it as the customer's default in a separate API request - by setting it to invoice_settings[default_payment_method] on the customer. That's not something we do for you automatically

you're right it is set correctly, but when I try to make another subscription with that customer it still gives me the error "Error: Cannot charge a customer that has no active card"

#

That's because it hasn't been set as their default yet - once you do that it'll be used automatically

#

so does that mean i need a webhook to listen to that event and then call that API request for invoice_settings[default_payment_method] ?

Yup! that would be one way of doing it!

#

would another way to do it be to call an endpoint on our server to do that once we get success on their initial payment?

#

right now when it succeeds it just takes them to another screen

#

Yes, you could do it from the webhook or you could do it once you know payment has succeeded and just make another request during your checkout flow

ok I'll try the easier way first lol. you've been a huge help and have kept my sanity in check
