Hello

The PaymentMethods API is compatible with Sources/Cards

But not the other way around

[hot veldt]

So I can add a card with Sources and see it with Payment Methods, but if I add it with payment method, I can't see it in sources?

And what if I use the Stripe UI? Can I still expect to see it in sources?

Let's pause.

Why are you asking this question to begin with?

You should be using PaymentMethods

And ignoring Sources and Cards really

[hot veldt]

Fair, but our code was written back in 2019. Our customers can use our app to choose a credit card from a menu to use for future purchases. To populate this menu, our existing code calls v1/customers/cus_abc/sources. As far as we know, this has been working for some time.

Okay so yeah if you switch that to https://stripe.com/docs/api/payment_methods/customer_list then you should see Cards, Sources, and PaymentMethods.

Do you use something like the Hosted Invoice Page to collect PaymentMethods?

[hot veldt]

No we use a product called ChargeDesk for that. As well as our own in-app code, which is based on the sources API.

So we have a mix.

But sounds like swapping /sources for /payment_methods should be relatively painless. Any Gotcha's we should be aware of?
