# Hand off a PaymentIntent to a Reader and collect card details

Initiates a payment flow on a Reader and updates the PaymentIntent with card details before manual confirmation. See [Collecting a Payment method](https://docs.stripe.com/docs/terminal/payments/collect-card-payment.md?terminal-sdk-platform=server-driven&process=inspect#collect-a-paymentmethod) for more details.

## Returns

Returns an updated `Reader` resource.

## Parameters

- `payment_intent` (string, required)
  The ID of the PaymentIntent to collect a payment method for.

- `collect_config` (object, optional)
  Configuration overrides for this collection, such as tipping, surcharging, and customer cancellation settings.

  - `collect_config.allow_redisplay` (enum, optional)
    This field indicates whether this payment method can be shown again to its customer in a checkout flow. Stripe products such as Checkout and Elements use this field to determine whether a payment method can be shown as a saved payment method in a checkout flow.
Possible enum values:
    - `always`
      Use `always` to indicate that this payment method can always be shown to a customer in a checkout flow.

    - `limited`
      Use `limited` to indicate that this payment method can’t always be shown to a customer in a checkout flow. For example, it can only be shown in the context of a specific subscription.

    - `unspecified`
      This is the default value for payment methods where `allow_redisplay` wasn’t set.

  - `collect_config.enable_customer_cancellation` (boolean, optional)
    Enables cancel button on transaction screens.

  - `collect_config.skip_tipping` (boolean, optional)
    Override showing a tipping selection screen on this transaction.

  - `collect_config.tipping` (object, optional)
    Tipping configuration for this transaction.

    - `collect_config.tipping.amount_eligible` (integer, optional)
      Amount used to calculate tip suggestions on tipping selection screen for this transaction. Must be a positive integer in the smallest currency unit (e.g., 100 cents to represent $1.00 or 100 to represent ¥100, a zero-decimal currency).
