Hey @celest sonnet! Unfortunately there's no way around it. GooglePay and ApplePay require you to re-collect card details each time a customer buys somethong your application/website. And each time it will be stored as a different PaymentMethod object even if it represents the same card. We don't do any "de-duplication" logic.

Why did you all decide to not include this logic? What was the reasoning behind that decision?

De-duplication seems extremely easy at first until you start diving into things like partial address collection, merging the updates, wanting to split to a new card later, etc. It's just not something we have tackled for now really
