I'm not quite sure what you mean here. Can you show me the initial customer ID and then the one they currently end up with?

When i create a new customer with one of our free membership plans we provided every member a Customer ID - in this case this user received cus_N2HIpL5FxNc1M9 but say i go ahead and save a new credit card to this user and if i go to Stripe dashboard i will see another customer id to this user.

#

as an example yesterday i created a new member and they received a customer id of cus_N1uy2fcxDqwf98 but when the user later saved a credit card and they received a new customer id of cus_N1v4lhLEOYuZiF

Gotcha, thank you for those IDs. Checking in to what is happening here...

#

You should definitely be able to re use these IDs when saving other payment methods

#

So it looks like your integration is creating all of these objects yourself. So you can achieve this, it is just a matter of checking when you already have a customer ID for a certain user and then re-using it instead of making the call to create a new one
