Hey! Yes, in order to re-use the SEPA payment method and mandate, then you'd need to 'save' it for future off-session usage
If you're using doing this whilst capturing an initial payment (via a PI), then yes the, setup_future_usage parameter is what you need
There's a doc that outlines this here: https://stripe.com/docs/payments/save-during-payment
It's not specific to SEPA, but same principles should apply

Thank you, so I can save the payment_method set for future usage and next time I use it, it will automatically use the same mandate ?
thorny canopy
Yep, exactly. There's a guide on this here: https://stripe.com/docs/payments/sepa-debit/set-up-payment
But that's using Setup Intents (without an initial payment). A PI with setup_future_usage should have same outcome

Np!

Is this thread closed ?
If not ,another related question, in the mandate object there is the sepa_debit[reference] field. Is it correct to say that this reference is the same for all the sepa_debit of a given mandate ?

the link is broken for me 404

Hmm. can you send me the field you're referring to
gusty shale
the documentation is actually pretty clear https://stripe.com/docs/api/mandates/object#mandate_object-payment_method_details-sepa_debit-reference
thorny canopy
Got it! Yep that will be same for all payments where the SEPA payment method associated with that mandate is used
gusty shale
Cool thank you
thorny canopy
Should be easy enough to test to confirm

Np!
