We are giving Invoice Ninja a trial for managing invoices for services we are offering. In addition, we are using Stripe to do the online payment processing. Everything seems to be working as expected, except one integration item between IN and Stripe. It appears that whenever an invoice is created in IN and payment is made, IN creates a new customer in Stripe using the invoice number. So multiple invoices to the same IN client creates multiple Stripe customers, one for each invoice generated from IN. We anticipate this making reconciling between Stripe and IN manual and tedious.
I’ve tried making sure that the IN clients and Stripe customer have the same emails but that doesn’t seem to work.
Hopefully I’m missing something to make this work but is there a way to get IN to match it’s clients with Stripe customers to keep payments associated with the appropriate client/customer?
If it matters, we are doing a self-hosting IN.
