#k3davis - Update Payment Methods
1 messages ยท Page 1 of 1 (latest)
HI ๐
We would still recommend using Setup Intents. It covers any additional authentication the card issuers may choose to enforce and reduces customer friction later on.
ok, so an expiration date change is sufficient to warrant a rerun of those checks (we already have an existing setupintent with the previous expiration date)?
Well Stripe automatically handles updating expiration month/year data for saved card payment methods
absolutely, we are going to use that for sure. but still people will call us with the new date and it may not have been received from the banks yet? or is that information super timely?
Often it's pretty quick but you can check the PM via the API and then update it if the new info isn't reflected
https://stripe.com/docs/api/payment_methods/update#update_payment_method-card
ok, that's what i was planning to do, was just not sure if a new setupintent was suggested in that case. sounds like it's recommended but not necessarily required, if i'm understanding you correctly.
and perhaps it will only very rarely be needed at all, which is good ๐
Ideally yes this shouldn't need to be a big concern but you can just update the info if you have it
thanks. appreciate your help
