Link is a Stripe offering that lets users use payment methods across Stripe accounts wheras saving the payment method directly to your customer is only re-usable for your account

#

You can offer both if you want

Ah okay, so if a user had previously made a payment in Stripe, on a different site, that user could use one-click payments right away

Correct, we have more info about it here. Basically they set up a login the first time they use Link (from your site or another site offering it) and then they can log in when using other Stripe sites that offer link https://stripe.com/docs/payments/link

#

So, you can use either or both here. As long as you have a PaymentMethod saved on the Customer you should be able to just provide its ID when confirming a payment intent to reuse it

Got it. Thank you! For what it is worth, it wasn't entirely clear to me from the documentation that Link allowed a customer to reuse a payment method that they had entered on another site. That is pretty cool
