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

Capture the funds of an existing uncaptured PaymentIntent when its status is requires_capture.

Uncaptured PaymentIntents are cancelled a set number of days (7 by default) after their creation.

Learn more about separate authorization and capture.

Parameters

• amount_to_captureinteger

  The amount to capture from the PaymentIntent, which must be less than or equal to the original amount. Any additional amount is automatically refunded. Defaults to the full amount_capturable if it’s not provided.

• 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.

Confirm that your customer intends to pay with current or provided payment method. Upon confirmation, the PaymentIntent will attempt to initiate a payment. If the selected payment method requires additional authentication steps, the PaymentIntent will transition to the requires_action status and suggest additional actions via next_action. If payment fails, the PaymentIntent transitions to the requires_payment_method status or the canceled status if the confirmation limit is reached. If payment succeeds, the PaymentIntent will transition to the succeeded status (or requires_capture, if capture_method is set to manual). If the confirmation_method is automatic, payment may be attempted using our client SDKs and the PaymentIntent’s client_secret. After next_actions are handled by the client, no additional confirmation is required to complete the payment. If the confirmation_method is manual, all payment attempts must be initiated using a secret key. If any actions are required for the payment, the PaymentIntent will return to the requires_confirmation state after those actions are completed. Your server needs to then explicitly re-confirm the PaymentIntent to initiate the next payment attempt. There is a variable upper limit on how many times a PaymentIntent can be confirmed. After this limit is reached, any further calls to this endpoint will transition the PaymentIntent to the canceled state.

Parameters

• 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.

  If you provide a Customer with the PaymentIntent, you can use this parameter to attach the payment method to the Customer after the PaymentIntent is confirmed and the customer completes any required actions. If you don’t provide a Customer, you can still attach the payment method to a Customer after the transaction completes.

  If the payment method is card_present and isn’t a digital wallet, Stripe creates and attaches a generated_card payment method representing the card to the Customer instead.

  When processing card payments, Stripe uses setup_future_usage to help you comply with regional legislation and network rules, such as SCA.

  If you’ve already set setup_future_usage and you’re performing a request using a publishable key, you can 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.

Perform an incremental authorization on an eligible PaymentIntent. To be eligible, the PaymentIntent’s status must be requires_capture and incremental_authorization_supported must be true.

Incremental authorizations attempt to increase the authorized amount on your customer’s card to the new, higher amount provided. Similar to the initial authorization, incremental authorizations can be declined. A single PaymentIntent can call this endpoint multiple times to further increase the authorized amount.

If the incremental authorization succeeds, the PaymentIntent object returns with the updated amount. If the incremental authorization fails, a card_declined error returns, and no other fields on the PaymentIntent or Charge update. The PaymentIntent object remains capturable for the previously authorized amount.

Each PaymentIntent can have a maximum of 10 incremental authorization attempts, including declines. After it’s captured, a PaymentIntent can no longer be incremented.

Learn more about incremental authorizations.

Parameters

• amountintegerRequired

  The updated total amount that you intend to collect from the cardholder. This amount must be greater than the currently authorized amount.

• 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.

• statement_descriptorstring

  Text that appears on the customer’s statement as the statement descriptor for a non-card or card charge. This value overrides the account’s default statement descriptor. For information about requirements, including the 22-character limit, see the Statement Descriptor docs.

Manually reconcile the remaining amount for a customer_balance PaymentIntent.

Parameters

• amountinteger

  Amount that you intend to apply to this PaymentIntent from the customer’s cash balance. If the PaymentIntent was created by an Invoice, the full amount of the PaymentIntent is applied regardless of this parameter.

  A positive integer representing how much to charge in the smallest currency unit (for example, 100 cents to charge 1 USD or 100 to charge 100 JPY, a zero-decimal currency). The maximum amount is the amount of the PaymentIntent.

  When you omit the amount, it defaults to the remaining amount requested on the PaymentIntent.

• currencyenum

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