Apologies that I initially missed this question. Can you tell me a bit more about how you are doing this with Stripe?

#

Are you doing this flow with a PaymentIntent? https://stripe.com/docs/payments/capture-later

#

Yes we using the payment intent

Hi there! I'm stepping in for @onyx ore who had to step away.

#

So, to clarify, you are not using Invoices with Stripe? Just PaymentIntents?

broken wind Mar 17, 2022, 9:19 PM

#

no not invoices just payment intents

green hazel Mar 17, 2022, 9:20 PM

#

Got it, thanks. So you can pass a receipt_email when you create the PaymentIntent: https://stripe.com/docs/api/payment_intents/create#create_payment_intent-receipt_email. This will have a receipt sent upon capture.

Okay what I have to activate in https://dashboard.stripe.com/settings/emails ? And can I see the invoices somewhere because I need that for my tax

#

When you say "invoices", do you mean receipts?

#

Are you using Customer objects and collecting emails on those?

#

If so, then you can just flip the toggle at "Email customers about successful payments" at https://dashboard.stripe.com/settings/emails and we will send receipts automatically

#

Without you needing to pass receipt_email on the PaymentIntent creation request.

Yes receipts

green hazel Are you using Customer objects and collecting emails on those?

yes

green hazel Mar 17, 2022, 9:29 PM

#

Got it.

#

Then yeah, just toggle that setting in the Dashboard to have receipts sent.

#

Note: we don't automatically send these receipts in test mode

#

So as not to spam folks

#

Ahhh

green hazel Mar 17, 2022, 9:30 PM

#

But you can send them manually via the Dashboard to get a look at it

broken wind Mar 17, 2022, 9:30 PM

#

How ?

green hazel Mar 17, 2022, 9:30 PM

#

Go to the PaymentIntent, scroll towards the bottom, there is a "send receipt" button

broken wind Mar 17, 2022, 9:42 PM

#

Okay I found it. But for the tax I need the invoice is there a overview for me about all invoices?

green hazel Mar 17, 2022, 9:45 PM

#

You can use the Reports tab (or Reporting API) to download data on your transactions.
