# Charge a customer using saved payment details

In certain scenarios, you may want to charge a customer using saved payment details and **DON’T** want them to have to complete a Stripe payment form again.

You might use this type of payment flow in the following scenarios:

* Charge a customer as part of a backend workflow
* As part of an eCommerce store, you want to save a customer’s payment details when they make their first purchase so you can implement one-click purchases on all future orders
* Charge an initial deposit upfront and take the rest of the payment at a later date

You can implement this type of payment flow using the 'Create PaymentIntent' action that comes with the plugin. See the written guide and video tutorial below for full details.
