Have you tested this? We recently released a new tool to help our users test subscription processes.

https://stripe.com/docs/billing/testing/test-clocks

Short answer, I do not think so. I think the updated default payment method would only apply to new subscriptions for that customer.

But I would use our new Test Clocks feature to test it out to be sure

what is your advise, regarding that? should i use the default saved payment method for any subscription creation or passing the payment method id every time the customer try to buy items?

or attach a payment method whenever the customer buy items

https://stripe.com/docs/api/payment_methods/attach

?

Well Invoicing is separate than just general default_payment_method.

You can see here: https://stripe.com/docs/api/customers/object#customer_object-invoice_settings

that the Customer object has specific invoice_settings, one of which is invoice_settings.default_payment_method.

It's up to you, if your users keep updating their default subscription payment method that helps ensure you are using the most up-to-date information.
