Hi 👋

Link operates mostly as a convenience method that wraps around other payment methods like cards or bank accounts

#

But in some scenarios it will create a Payment Method with a type of link

#

You can see both behaviors in the Prebuild Checkout page and Custom Payment Flow integrations we describe here: https://stripe.com/docs/payments/link/accept-a-payment?platform=web&ui=checkout

I'm a little confused as to how a customer was able to put in a link payment method when the only option I allow for is "card" in my checkout page... is there a way to put in the "link" type from a card checkout page?

#

I don't know what you mean by a "card checkout page". What Stripe products are you using?

#

Apologies, I think I see how they were able to add a link as a type... Assuming it's from this:

Are you using Stripe Checkout, Payment Element?

#

Stripe Checkout

#

Is there a way I can see the brand & last4 of the card from a payment method with "link" type via an API call? The request for Stripe::PaymentMethod.retrieve('pm_id') doesn't return that information

#

A link payment method will only contain the email of the customer

Understood, thank you so much for your help

Happy to shed what 💡 I can 🙂

May I get help with turning off that Link feature in my checkout pages? I tried turning it off for the checkout section here:
https://dashboard.stripe.com/settings/link

Stripe Login | Sign in to the Stripe Dashboard

Sign in to the Stripe Dashboard to manage business payments and operations in your account. Manage payments and refunds, respond to disputes and more.

#

but I'm still seeing it when I navigate to my checkout page

#

Did you create a new Checkout Session or are you using the same URL?

wet plank Jul 28, 2023, 5:07 PM

#

oh i believe i'm using the same URL from a previous Stripe::BillingPortal::Configuration.create

#

does it have to be a new billing portal?

#

hmm creating a new BillingPortal configuration and using that ID still did not work

winged locust Jul 28, 2023, 5:10 PM

#

Wait I thought you were talking about Stripe Checkout

#

That is different from BillingPortal

wet plank Jul 28, 2023, 5:16 PM

#

ah sorry, yes I'm using billing portal, for some reason I thought that was conceptually the same
