👋

#

So you are specifically asking about collecting new PaymentMethods, correct?

#

And you don't want a Customer to have multiple PaymentMethods attached?

#

yep! 🙂

#

sorry, wasn't sure the best way to word it

soft mulch Sep 15, 2022, 4:24 PM

#

And how are you collecting these new PaymentMethods? What integration flow?

barren badge Sep 15, 2022, 4:24 PM

#

essentially, we want the user the ability to modify their payment method via a HubSpot card. Which operates off of using the Cardelement

#

so we loop over the form data, use the data to update customer details if needed, then we delete the existing card & then we add in the new card via confirmCardSetup

Got it

#

So yeah I think the flow sounds fine. The only thing is that as you noted you likely want to add the new card first before deleting the existing card in case the new card is declined on SetUp

#

yeah

#

I didn't know you could have multiple payment methods tho so thats good to know

soft mulch Sep 15, 2022, 4:29 PM

#

Yep, very common to allow customers to have multiple paymentmethods attached and then show them a UI of their attached paymentmethods for future payments when they return to your site

sweeeeet

#

quick question although I can look it up myself:

can you look up the payment methods in stripe via the card element so we don't have to expose the full card number?

#

That sentence doesn't quite make sense. Do you mean, can you retrieve the PaymentMethods attached to a Customer from the client? Or can you explain what you mean?

#

sure, I think I answered my question thinking more about it; I just wasn't sure if it's worth going through the process if someone enters the same exact card in again , but I guess it doesn't really matter

soft mulch Sep 15, 2022, 4:32 PM

#

Yeah I mean that is up to you. You look at the fingerprint to determine whether it is a duplicate card or not

barren badge Sep 15, 2022, 4:32 PM

#

sweeeet didnt know that either. thanks so much bismarck
