What are the practical implications of the “Capture Card” setting?
The choices are:
Enabled: Option is not shown
Enabled by default: Option is shown & selected
Disable by default
Off: Option is not shown
Hi,
Saving the card details enables future invoice to be auto-billed. When your client pays in the client portal it determines if they see a choice to have their card details saved and whether or not the option is checked by default or not.

Hi @hillel , i need extended explanation on this topic as well. on v5, the stripe capture card settings looks like below.
- Enabled
- Option is shown and selected
- Option is shown but not selected
- Off
Enabled = means what?
I want to use stripe along with payment links, and to autobill the customer. There’s another settings ‘Autobill’ on the payment links settings. So how to make these 2 settings (stripe capture card & payment links autobill) works? so that user just fill in the card info one time and for the next recurring bill it will just autocharge the card. Which settings should i choose for both?
If the user wants to cancel, they can just go to their Subscription and cancel.
Enabled means the card will always be captured/your clients won’t be offered a choice.
So does it means stripe will keep the card details and auto charge the card for future subscription? When i checked the docs, when Autobill = Enabled, client will be autocharged when there’s valid payment method on file.
Valid payment method on file, is this referred to any payment method shown in the client portal “Payment Method” menu? If I don’t see any payment method listed on the client portal Payment Method page, does it means that for the next subscription invoice, the app will issue invoice, but no payment being captured?
Capturing the card and auto-billing are two separate options.
That’s correct, if a client doesn’t have a payment method the unpaid invoice will be emailed.
I see. So can you advise the best correct setting so that when the client fill in their card info, it automatically saved on file / under their payment method section during the first time payment?
Is it this the right setting?
Stripe Capture = Enabled
Payment Links Autobill = Enabled
Will this setting > Payment Links Autobill = Enabled, always saves the card on file without showing the option to opt-in/out?
Yes, that’s exactly right
