Hi there
So you want to influence the order in which payment methods are displayed when using dynamic payment methods, is that right?
simple prairie
correct. Documentation is clear when we know the type but not really when dealing with customer payment methods
distant mortar
There's a parameter you can pass a ranking/order to in the frontend in the options passed to the Payment Element:
simple prairie
yes, it is the one I queoted in the thread, however if you look at the step to add a customer payment method, one can create it without a type, as no such type exists in Stripe
as per above screen
in that scenario, what do we pass to paymentMethodOrder in order to define the order of that custom method?
distant mortar
Ah, Custom payment methods. You said "customer payment method" which confused me
simple prairie
sorry, typo. Custom payment methods is what I am after and defining their order
distant mortar
So you want to order multiple custom payment methods, not a single one? I would not be surprised if you can't do this
I would first try "custom" in paymentMethodOrder and seeing if that works or not
simple prairie
In a scenario where we have a number of standard one (known) and 1 or more custom ones. We want to be able to define their order. Ideally I should be able to put the custom once wherever I want
distant mortar
Can you try the suggestion above and see if it produces any results?
simple prairie
it will take me a while to prep a POC, was hoping for evidence in the documentation
distant mortar
okay I just tested this: you can use the id of the Custom Payment Method in paymentMethodOrder to place it where you want in the order
