No... when they sign up the sub starts immediately.

Oh, sorry, I misread. So they already have a Subscription and they want to change how they pay, correct?
signal carbon
Yes... like if the credit card is about to expire or did expire and they need to add a new card

Gotcha. Yep, you would use a Setup Intent for that. What specific issue are you running into there?
Setup Intents do not require a payment.
Once you use a Setup Intent to confirm a new Payment Method you can set that as the default for Invoice payments on the Customer, or you can set it as the default for a specific Subscription.

Yeah I must be looking at the docs too much today... haha... I am reading this article... https://stripe.com/docs/payments/save-and-reuse?html-or-react=react
I'm setup to the point where I send the new card data to Stripe. But I'm missing how I tell Stripe to make that the new default method.
Sorry If I'm missing something obvious. It has been a long day.

No worries! You would update the Customer and set this to the Payment Method ID: https://stripe.com/docs/api/customers/update#update_customer-invoice_settings-default_payment_method
That's if you want to set it as the Invoice default at the Customer level.
