It is talking about the Payment Method ID, you can still create a new PaymentMethod (object) for the same payment method (thing in the real world)

#

🙂 ok, thanks

#

Is it possible to temporarily block a payment method for a customer, e.g. because a dispute was triggered without detach it?

#

Can you tell me a bit more about the context here? Block all payments or just from that card?

#

In the case of return debits (SEPA Debit), we incur high fees from the European banks and would therefore like to temporarily restrict the payment method so that the customer can no longer use this method for future orders for a period of time. But if we remove it, then the customer has to add it again... but we really only want to block it temporarily...

#

But I think we simply have to control this via the payment method id so that it is not displayed in the frontend and check whether the payment method is still actively used in a subscription or similar and not allowed.

#

How are payments being initiated here?

#

Either via the checkout, here we retrieve the payment methods for the customer (i.e. all linked methods) or there is already a subscription (without Stripe Billing) where the payment method is debited via a payment intent.

#

Yeah, I was going to say. If this is your frontend, you can flag it as blocked in your system and just not confirm payments with it

#

Is this checkout Stripe's hosted Checkout pages or is this your own custom page?

visual wharf Mar 16, 2023, 7:13 PM

#

Yeah, okay. Then we have to do it like this. I thought maybe there is a way to solve this via your API, in which you can not only disable a payment method but also deactivate/activate it.

#

own custom page

#

Unfortunately, your checkout is not feature-rich for our scenario, but we are already in contact with a product manager from stripe, who is currently representing internally what we are missing. 🙂

#

Gotcha, then yeah this will probably be the way to go. Also good to hear that we are taking your feedback!
