👋 Happy to help

#

What is the issue you're facing?

#

Hiya! So my current flow is to create a payment intent server side, sent the client secret to the client, collect a payment method and then pass that to my server to capture the payment.

#

However, when I try and capture the payment, it gives an error telling me it's expecting a different status, namely it's expecting a payment intent with status requires_capture and what I'm handing it is something with the status requires_payment_method

#

{"code":"payment_intent_unexpected_state","doc_url":"https://stripe.com/docs/error-codes/payment-intent-unexpected-state","status":400,"message":"This PaymentIntent could not be captured because it has a status of requires_payment_method. Only a PaymentIntent with one of the following statuses may be captured: requires_capture."

Error codes

#

For reference, this is the front-end code that's interacting with my backend:

#

      if (stripeClientSecret) {
        const result = await terminal?.collectPaymentMethod(stripeClientSecret)```

#

oh sorry I suppose I should have attached the whole bit of code

#

        companyId,
        amountDollars: centsToDollars(getValues("total")) ?? 0,
        customerId: customer?.id ?? "",
        saveCardToCustomer: false,
      })
      const stripeClientSecret = cardPresentPaymentData.data?.stripeClientSecret
      if (stripeClientSecret) {
        const result = await terminal?.collectPaymentMethod(stripeClientSecret)```

#

where initiateCardPresentPayment creates the paymentIntent object

Could you share the payment intent ID (pi_xxx)?

full oar Jun 15, 2022, 1:32 AM

#

sure!

#

this one was the one in question

deft bronze Jun 15, 2022, 1:34 AM

#

It looks like you tried to capture the payment intent before a payment method is collected

#

Can you share the full code until capturing the payment intent?

full oar Jun 15, 2022, 1:35 AM

#

    _, err := paymentintent.Capture(stripePaymentIntentID, params)```

#

so this is all I have on the server side for capturing the payment

#

and I guess I'm just not sure how I attach the payment method to the payment intent- I thought that was the whole point of the collectPaymentMethod call

deft bronze Jun 15, 2022, 1:37 AM

#

When collectPaymentMethod is called, does your reader show up asking for payment?

full oar Jun 15, 2022, 1:37 AM

#

Yup!

#

and then I scan the stripe test card

deft bronze Jun 15, 2022, 1:38 AM

#

That sounds about right! After collectPaymentMethod is invoked successfully, do you send to processPayment? https://stripe.com/docs/terminal/payments/collect-payment?terminal-sdk-platform=js#process-payment

full oar Jun 15, 2022, 1:39 AM

#

ahhhh nope I'm imagining that might be the missing piece

#

Totally missed that

#

let me try that thank you!

deft bronze Jun 15, 2022, 1:41 AM

#

No problem! Payment intent status will only move to requires_capture after processPayment is called, then you can capture the payment

#

got it! Super helpful. Thanks!
