Would totally be all over this. <3

[JeffreyWay]

Yeah - this would be vital.

Looking for a way to send a user's email/username to Stripe so I can save them on a customer record for identification purposes. This would solve that problem.

[danmatthews]

+1 for all of this.

also @nitrammit, could this be done by passing extra metadata to the create() method for subscriptions to pass an email or description to identify the customer?

$user->subscription('monthly')->create($stripetoken, ['email' => '[email protected]']);

I like what You had to add as well danmatthews, that would be quite useful.

I was able to pass an email through to Stripe by altering the StripeGateway.php It'll break as soon as I run composer of course, but it gets the job done in a pinch.

I added an $email parameter to both the create & createStripeCustomer functions

    public function create($token, $description = '', $customer = null, $email = null)
    {
        if ( ! $customer)
        {
            $customer = $this->createStripeCustomer($token, $description, $email);
        }

        $this->billable->setStripeSubscription(
            $customer->updateSubscription($this->buildPayload())->id
        );

        $this->updateLocalStripeData($this->getStripeCustomer($customer->id));
    }

    public function createStripeCustomer($token, $description, $email = null)
    {
        $customer = Stripe_Customer::create([
            'card' => $token,
            'description' => $description,
            'email' => $email

        ], $this->getStripeKey());

        return $this->getStripeCustomer($customer->id);
    }

+1 on this.

[gwlortscher]

+1. The ability for customers to update credit card information is the missing piece in my case.

[mavame]

+1 is anyone working on this? Would be great.

[alexgarrettsmith]

+1 for this, but bear in mind a customer can have several cards, but has a default card attached to them. I assume in this case you meant updating the default card with the above methods :)

Has this been fixed in the latest release?

I apologize. I was just curious if this commit:

Fix how credit cards are updated.

Had anything to do with this issue. I'll get to work on a pull request otherwise.
