List PaymentMethods 

Returns a list of PaymentMethods for Treasury flows. If you want to list the PaymentMethods attached to a Customer for payments, you should use the List a Customer’s PaymentMethods API instead.

Parameters

  • typeenum

    An optional filter on the list, based on the object type field. Without the filter, the list includes all current and future payment method types. If your integration expects only one type of payment method in the response, make sure to provide a type value in the request.

More parameters

  • customerstring

  • ending_beforestring

  • limitinteger

  • starting_afterstring

Returns

A dictionary with a data property that contains an array of up to limit PaymentMethods of type type, starting after PaymentMethods starting_after. Each entry in the array is a separate PaymentMethod object. If no more PaymentMethods are available, the resulting array will be empty.

Attach a PaymentMethod to a Customer 

Attaches a PaymentMethod object to a Customer.

To attach a new PaymentMethod to a customer for future payments, we recommend you use a SetupIntent or a PaymentIntent with setup_future_usage. These approaches will perform any necessary steps to set up the PaymentMethod for future payments. Using the /v1/payment_methods/:id/attach endpoint without first using a SetupIntent or PaymentIntent with setup_future_usage does not optimize the PaymentMethod for future use, which makes later declines and payment friction more likely. See Optimizing cards for future payments for more information about setting up future payments.

To use this PaymentMethod as the default for invoice or subscription payments, set invoice_settings.default_payment_method, on the Customer to the PaymentMethod’s ID.

Parameters

  • customerstringRequired

    The ID of the customer to which to attach the PaymentMethod.

Returns

Returns a PaymentMethod object.

Payment Method Configurations 

PaymentMethodConfigurations control which payment methods are displayed to your customers when you don’t explicitly specify payment method types. You can have multiple configurations with different sets of payment methods for different scenarios.

There are two types of PaymentMethodConfigurations. Which is used depends on the charge type:

Direct configurations apply to payments created on your account, including Connect destination charges, Connect separate charges and transfers, and payments not involving Connect.

Child configurations apply to payments created on your connected accounts using direct charges, and charges with the on_behalf_of parameter.

Child configurations have a parent that sets default values and controls which settings connected accounts may override. You can specify a parent ID at payment time, and Stripe will automatically resolve the connected account’s associated child configuration. Parent configurations are managed in the dashboard and are not available in this API.

Payment Method Domains 

A payment method domain represents a web domain that you have registered with Stripe. Stripe Elements use registered payment method domains to control where certain payment methods are shown.
