# PostPaymentIntents From **Stripe API**. `POST /v1/payment_intents`

Creates a PaymentIntent object.

After the PaymentIntent is created, attach a payment method and confirm to continue the payment. You can read more about the different payment flows available via the Payment Intents API here.

When confirm=true is used during creation, it is equivalent to creating and confirming the PaymentIntent in the same call. You may use any parameters available in the confirm API when confirm=true is supplied.
