A payment_intent is created to help you navigate the 3DS flow of collecting payment from your customer. It is necessary only for implementing 3DS flow using Chargebee.js.

Auto-expiry

All payment_intents with status as inited, in_progress or authorized become expired after an hour automatically.

Creates a PaymentIntent object. This is to be used with Chargebee.js API to complete the 3DS flow for new or stored cards.

While creating, specify the appropriate gateway account and amount. Exact amount can be estimated using our Estimate API.

Customer resource lookup and creation

When customer[id] is provided for this operation, it is looked up by Chargebee, and if found, the payment_intent is created for it. If not found, a new customer resource is created with the ID provided, and the payment_intent is created.
