Update a PaymentIntent

Updates properties on a PaymentIntent object without confirming.

Depending on which properties you update, you might need to confirm the PaymentIntent again. For example, updating the payment_method always requires you to confirm the PaymentIntent again. If you prefer to update and confirm at the same time, we recommend updating properties through the confirm API instead.

Parameters

  • amountinteger

    Amount intended to be collected by this PaymentIntent. A positive integer representing how much to charge in the smallest currency unit (e.g., 100 cents to charge $1.00 or 100 to charge ¥100, a zero-decimal currency). The minimum amount is $0.50 US or equivalent in charge currency. The amount value supports up to eight digits (e.g., a value of 99999999 for a USD charge of $999,999.99).

  • currencyenum

    Three-letter ISO currency code, in lowercase. Must be a supported currency.

  • customerstring

    ID of the Customer this PaymentIntent belongs to, if one exists.

    Payment methods attached to other Customers cannot be used with this PaymentIntent.

    If present in combination with setup_future_usage, this PaymentIntent’s payment method will be attached to the Customer after the PaymentIntent has been confirmed and any required actions from the user are complete.

  • descriptionstring

    An arbitrary string attached to the object. Often useful for displaying to users.

  • metadataobject

    Set of key-value pairs that you can attach to an object. This can be useful for storing additional information about the object in a structured format. Individual keys can be unset by posting an empty value to them. All keys can be unset by posting an empty value to metadata.

  • payment_methodstring

    ID of the payment method (a PaymentMethod, Card, or compatible Source object) to attach to this PaymentIntent.

  • receipt_emailstring

    Email address that the receipt for the resulting payment will be sent to. If receipt_email is specified for a payment in live mode, a receipt will be sent regardless of your email settings.

  • setup_future_usageenum

    Indicates that you intend to make future payments with this PaymentIntent’s payment method.

    Providing this parameter will attach the payment method to the PaymentIntent’s Customer, if present, after the PaymentIntent is confirmed and any required actions from the user are complete. If no Customer was provided, the payment method can still be attached to a Customer after the transaction completes.

    When processing card payments, Stripe also uses setup_future_usage to dynamically optimize your payment flow and comply with regional legislation and network rules, such as SCA.

    If setup_future_usage is already set and you are performing a request using a publishable key, you may only update the value from on_session to off_session.

    Possible enum values
    off_session

    Use off_session if your customer may or may not be present in your checkout flow.

    on_session

    Use on_session if you intend to only reuse the payment method when your customer is present in your checkout flow.

  • shippingobject

    Shipping information for this PaymentIntent.

  • statement_descriptorstring

    For card charges, use statement_descriptor_suffix. Otherwise, you can use this value as the complete description of a charge on your customers’ statements. It must contain at least one letter and be 1–22 characters long.

  • statement_descriptor_suffixstring

    Provides information about a card payment that customers see on their statements. Concatenated with the prefix (shortened descriptor) or statement descriptor that’s set on the account to form the complete statement descriptor. Maximum 22 characters for the concatenated descriptor.

More parameters

  • application_fee_amountintegerConnect only

  • capture_methodenumsecret key only

  • payment_method_configurationstring

  • payment_method_dataobject

  • payment_method_optionsobject

  • payment_method_typesarray of strings

  • transfer_dataobjectConnect only

  • transfer_groupstringConnect only

Returns

Returns a PaymentIntent object.

Retrieve a PaymentIntent

Retrieves the details of a PaymentIntent that has previously been created.

You can retrieve a PaymentIntent client-side using a publishable key when the client_secret is in the query string.

If you retrieve a PaymentIntent with a publishable key, it only returns a subset of properties. Refer to the payment intent object reference for more details.

Parameters

  • client_secretstringRequired if you use a publishable key.

    The client secret of the PaymentIntent. We require it if you use a publishable key to retrieve the source.

Returns

Returns a PaymentIntent if a valid identifier was provided.

Cancel a PaymentIntent

You can cancel a PaymentIntent object when it’s in one of these statuses: requires_payment_method, requires_capture, requires_confirmation, requires_action or, in rare cases, processing.

After it’s canceled, no additional charges are made by the PaymentIntent and any operations on the PaymentIntent fail with an error. For PaymentIntents with a status of requires_capture, the remaining amount_capturable is automatically refunded.

You can’t cancel the PaymentIntent for a Checkout Session. Expire the Checkout Session instead.

Parameters

  • cancellation_reasonstring

    Reason for canceling this PaymentIntent. Possible values are: duplicate, fraudulent, requested_by_customer, or abandoned

Returns

Returns a PaymentIntent object if the cancellation succeeds. Returns an error if the PaymentIntent is already canceled or isn’t in a cancelable state.

More parameters

  • application_fee_amountintegerConnect only

  • final_captureboolean

  • statement_descriptorstring

  • statement_descriptor_suffixstring

  • transfer_dataobjectConnect only
