Would stripe know if a payment method is valid?

Time:02-04

My app requires a user to enter their payment method, which they may use for purchases in the future.

At the point of accepting the payment method:

  1. Is it possible for stripe to know whether or not the payment method is valid and how much it can be charged?

As time passes, will stripe be able to know if the payment method has expired or know how much it can be charge as this values changes over time?

CodePudding user response:

Yes, stripe knows the payment method validation. If it's not valid or expires stripe throws an error and you can catch it on your side and perform accordingly. If the purchase method expires stripes throws an error and retries at most 5 times (I guess, I forgot the exact number).

And the dynamicity, stripe charges the amount you want it to charge. You set the chargeable amount and stripe does its work.
