Duplicate customers
-
Hi!
I’ve noticed that the plugin doesn’t associate the purchases with an existing Stripe customer, instead it creates a new customer. Here are more details:
For the email address [email protected], there is already a Stripe customer. When [email protected] makes a purchase on WooCommerce via this integration, I’d expect that the integration checks if there is a Stripe customer for [email protected]. If it exists, then associate the purchase with the same Stripe customer. If not, create a new Stripe customer and associate the purchase to this customer.
However, this is not what happens currently. If there is a Stripe customer for [email protected] and the integration creates a new customer with the same email and associates the purchase to the new one.
Is there any way to prevent this to avoid creating new customers?

Hi @ucarmetin
Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
I replicated it, and this issue only occurs with guest checkout. I’ve already reported this to our developer: https://github.com/woocommerce/woocommerce-gateway-stripe/issues/3124
At the time being, we can’t give you an estimate for when the team will look into or fix the issue, as bug reports are prioritized based on a few criteria. Please subscribe to the GitHub issue if you’d like to receive updates.
Meanwhile, as a temporary workaround, you can disable guest checkout on your website.
If you have any other questions, feel free to ask. Thanks!
