Adds a processing status to submitted stablecoin paymentsBreaking changes

What’s new

PaymentIntents confirmed with the crypto payment method for stablecoin payments now have a status of processing when a user submits a transaction to the blockchain for processing. Users only redirect back to your integration when a payment is finalized.

Impact

Previously, the PaymentIntent denoted success or failure by transitioning from requires_action to either succeeded or requires_payment_method.

With this change, when using the crypto payment method:

• If you retrieve the PaymentIntent while customers are waiting for the transaction to confirm, the status field now shows a value of processing.
• If you attempt to cancel a confirmed PaymentIntent with the processing status, the request fails with error payment_intent_invalid_cancellation_state.

You can optionally set up your webhook endpoint to listen for the payment_intent.processing event to be notified when the PaymentIntent transitions to the processing status.

The customer isn’t redirected while the PaymentIntent has the processing status, so your checkout experience shouldn’t require any changes.
