 * Hello,
 * I do not understand a problem I noted.
   On the same check, same product, same 
   price and same type of payment (Can be Link, a VISA, a Mastercard, etc.) some
   costumers has the payment method saved, some costumers not.
 * For example:
 * **Link Payment**
   Transaction A – Costumer A, payment is not savedTransaction 
   B – Costumer B, payment is not savedTransaction C – Costumer C, payment is not
   saved
 * **Mastercard Payment**
 * pi**Link Payment**
   Transaction A – Costumer A, payment is savedTransaction B –
   Costumer B, payment is not saved
 * I use WooCommerce, and all the settings seems good.
   What is the difference?
 * Thank you

 * Hello,
 * Stripe support write me about that
 * “After careful review, I can see that your payment integration – WooCommerce 
   Inc. is not passing setup_future_usage when passing the paymentintent to Stripe.”
 * Any help?

 * Hi [@mirunchained](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mirunchained/)
 * Thanks for sharing the details and what Stripe support mentioned. If I understand
   correctly, you’re wondering why some customers have a saved payment method and
   others don’t. Is that right?
 * Whether or not a customer’s payment info is saved can depend on a few things.
   First, the customers need to choose to save their payment details. Next would
   be how your payment gateway settings are configured.
 * To make sure your settings are optimized to save payment methods, I would suggest
   checking your stripe settings on WooCommerce > Settings > Payments > Stripe (
   click manage), then look for this part (screenshot: [https://snipboard.io/3PKErW.jpg](https://snipboard.io/3PKErW.jpg))
   and make sure it’s set to “Enable payments via saved cards.” This should give
   your customers the option to save their payment method.
 * > “After careful review, I can see that your payment integration – WooCommerce
   > Inc. is not passing setup_future_usage when passing the paymentintent to Stripe.”
 * Next, about what stripe support mentioned, the `setup_future_usage` parameter
   basically tells Stripe to keep the payment info for future use.
 * Let me know if this helps clear things up a bit or if you have other questions.

 * Hi there!
 * I found another user who was facing the same issue when they enabled the option**“
   Issue an authorization on checkout, and capture later is enabled”**. After some
   time, the issue disappeared, even with that option still enabled.
 * However, the user is now facing an issue where the checkbox to save the payment
   method does not appear. Here is the complete discussion between that user and
   our developers: [GitHub Issue #2832](https://github.com/woocommerce/woocommerce-gateway-stripe/issues/2832).
 * To gather more details about your issue, could you please confirm if you can 
   see the “Save Payment Method” checkbox on checkout? If yes, for testing purposes,
   could you please uncheck the following option: **“Issue an authorization on checkout,
   and capture later is enabled”**? You can find this option by going to **WooCommerce
   > Settings > Payments > Stripe – Credit Card (Stripe) > Settings**. After that,
   please check if you still face the same issue.
 * If the issue persists, please enable the Stripe error log by going to **WooCommerce
   > Payments > Stripe > Settings**, scroll down to the **Advanced** tab, and check
   the **Error Log** option.
 * Then, go to **WooCommerce > Status > Logs**, open the log file related to Stripe
   payments, copy the error log, and share it here.
 * With that information, we’ll be happy to assist you further in resolving this!

 * Hello,
 * **Issue an authorization on checkout, and capture later** has not check
 * I tried to read all the log of 20 Jan. I had 4 transactions, 1 was with Apple
   Pay with unsaved method.
 * There are no errors on that transaction but there is not this rule (which instead
   is present with other one else):

 * Hello [mirunchained](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mirunchained/),
 * Thank you for your reply.
 * I visited your site and tried to buy a product to review the checkout process.
   
   However, I could not find any product that I could add to a cart.Could you show
   me how you add a product to the cart and reach the checkout page?
 * It would be great if you could record a video.
   You may use [https://awesomescreenshot.com](https://awesomescreenshot.com/)
   to record and share a video with me.
 * Looking forward to your response. 🙂

 * **Hi, thanks for your response.**
 * My website works in a way that the user cannot manually create a cart. Instead,
   when they click on a link (generated by CartFlows), they are taken directly to
   the checkout page with the products already added to the cart.
 * In fact, if you visit the link I shared, you will see that the three products
   at the bottom are automatically added. To complete the payment, the user needs
   to enter their details (first name, last name, etc.), proceed to the next page,
   and then input their payment information (debit/credit card, PayPal, etc.).
 * So, it’s a direct checkout, not a traditional e-commerce setup where the visitor
   manually adds items to their cart.

 * Hello [mirunchained](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mirunchained/),
 * Thank you for your reply.
 * I understand your website is set up now.
   Since this is not a traditional e-commerce
   store, I recommend creating a ticket via WooCommerce.com.This way our Happiness
   Engineers can look into your site in more depth and assist you further.
 * Feel free to reply if you need any assistance with creating a ticket.
   Once you
   create the ticket, share your ticket number with me.
