Payment Intent Error Reason

Payment Intents can fail for a variety of reasons. The reason a given payment intent failed is available in a Payment Intent Object's error_reason attribute.

Below is a list of all the types of error_reason we currently send. We may add more at any time, so in developing and maintaining your code, you should not assume that only these types exist.
