Haha sure

Are you using PaymentIntents?
silent nymph
Yes

Gotcha. Also, is this a webapp, or are you a terminal user?
silent nymph
It’s an iOS application, for better context, we are a rideshare network similar to Uber. Riders pay drivers for rides taken. Sometimes they tip later which we have to process twice. Drivers have been complaining about this issue.

Ok checking with a colleague on something. I know of one option for this, but there may be an even better one that I need to confirm first
silent nymph
Oh awesome, thanks a bunch
silent nymph
Did you get to confirm?
spiral rapids
Still waiting for the follow-up
So my original suggestion was going to be this: https://stripe.com/docs/payments/capture-later
silent nymph
Ahh no problem 🙂
spiral rapids
Where you just auth for a larger amount than the ride, that way you can adjust the amount to what the ride + tip will be before capture
That would be a valid solution, but waiting for confirmation to see if there's something better
silent nymph
Yeah, that’s a good approach, but user may not be very comfortable to see a higher amount than what we showed on the checkout page
Thanks, let me know when you have an update:)
spiral rapids
Sure, np
Are you using the PaymentSheet?
Also the advice I got from my colleague was you should write in to support here: https://support.stripe.com/contact/email with a very detailed description of your use-case and what you're currently doing, what you are thinking on trying, etc. to see if there are any better options for you since the "capture later" is the best way to do this with the public API
