    I am trying to save customer cards in stripe. They go through the checkout process, we charge them and capture the charge immediately. We then want to save that card for future charges.

    We do not want to enable “Save for future use”.
    We do not use stripe subscriptions or woocommerce subscriptions.
    We charge our customers for monthly/quarterly billing through a different work-flow using the stripeAPI on a different product.

    I know other stipe plugins can easily save card numbers for future charges I Just don’t know how to make this plugin do it.

    When our customers check out and their account is added to stripe this is what their account looks like:

    Before using this plugin we were able to save customer card numbers:

    That seems directly at odds with your goal. There is no way to save the card details for future use without enabling the feature to save the card for future use.

    Thank you @wbrubaker,

    The product we are selling is a home service subscription. A Monthly, quarterly, etc service. Thus we want to save their card information on Stipe after they checkout.

    The only way I have found to save the card information to Stripe is to enable the setting called “Enable Payment via Saved Cards” in the Woocommerce-Stripe settings area.

    This setting seems a great feature for return customers who purchase from my store often and want to reuse their same payment method. This is now what we are looking for. Most of our customers only come to our website once, make the purchase and never return.

    We do not want the purchaser to make the decision to save the card info. They have already made the decision to save the card by going through the checkout process and selecting a recurring service. We want to save it automatically after checkout.

    Is that possible?

    It’s not possible via configuration. It may be possible via custom code.

    @wbrubaker Thanks again! Not what I was hoping for but at least an answer.

    Quick question if you know, is there a way to add customization or customize code in the WooCommerce Stripe Payment Gateway plugin?

    Thanks again

    Hey again!

    It’s definitely possible to write PHP that changes how the Stripe plugin works.

    You’d typically write your own plugin that modifies that.

    We highly recommend contacting one of the services on our Customizations page (https://woocommerce.com/customizations/) if you need help implementing this.
