For the most part, we recommend relying on Setup Intents to verify the card details when necessary. Definitely do not do a $1 payment intent with manual capture
so a setupintent, if the card is closed or otherwise would be declined by the bank, will be declined just as though it were a charge attempt?
or at least, catch some of those cases. we're just looking for more verification than a luhn check, not an outright guarantee that when the paymentintent is later created it will always be accepted
with our current provider we do "$0 authorizations" for this purpose, i'm just looking for the right stripe equivalent
Yeah, Setup Intents will definitely catch most of these cases - there are some cases where the card details don't get checked until a later point (see https://support.stripe.com/questions/check-if-a-card-is-valid-without-a-charge), but a SetupIntent should be sufficient and is what we recommend to do "$0 authorizations"
thanks for the clarification
