Unfortunately it is not. Can I ask why you are looking to do this? We may be able to achieve that some other way

In my platform we have the stripe form that collects payments and also collects coupons. With submit we make a payment_intent with amount - coupon_amount

Gotcha. If the amount goes all the way down to 0, it might make more sense to just mark it in your system that the user has paid without a payment intent.

#

One other thing to keep in mind here is that the standard restriction is that you cannot create a PaymentIntent for less than certain amounts in each currency https://stripe.com/docs/currencies

#

I am trying to think of if there is another way to represent this in our API. There might be, but anything I can think of would probably be more complicated than finding a way to mark this without a PI in your system.

because I see that inside subscriptions Stripe is able to create 0€ invoices

You can create a 0€ invoice and mark it as paid out of band if you would like. I don't immediately know if that create an payment intent though. May be worth testing if you need something in our system

A 0€ Invoice won't generate a Payment Intent (because no payment is actually due/needed on the Invoice)
