Embed Issuing card management into your websiteBeta

The Issuing Card component allows an admin to view individual card details. From this view, they can set spend controls, as well as activate, deactivate (freeze), or cancel cards. If you implement sensitive data display, they can also view card numbers (PANs) and CVVs or CVCs for virtual cards.

Issuing Card configuration

This embedded component supports the following parameters:

The Issuing Cards List component allows an admin to view all the cards on a connected account. They can filter cards by cardholder, creation date, and card type.

When the admin clicks on a row in the table, they see a view of the selected card where they can activate, deactivate (freeze), or cancel the card. If you implement sensitive data display, they can also view card numbers (PANs) and CVC or CVVs for virtual cards.

Issuing Cards List configuration

This embedded component supports the following parameters:

You can use Issuing Connect embedded components to view and, optionally, edit spending controls on your cards by turning on the Issuing component’s showSpendControls attribute.

const issuingCard = stripeConnectInstance.create('issuing-card');
issuingCard.setShowSpendControls(true);
document.body.appendChild(issuingCard);

To enable editing spend controls in the component, pass spend_control_management: true as a feature when you create an AccountSession.

Issuing Connect embedded components integrate with Issuing Elements to provide a PCI-compliant way for you to allow your admins to view card numbers (PANs) and CVV or CVCs for virtual cards. The sensitive data renders inside Stripe-hosted iframes and never touches your servers.

The components can use an ephemeral key to securely retrieve card information from the Stripe API without publicly exposing your secret keys.

To enable this functionality you must:

1. Set up an ephemeral key exchange on your server.
2. Pass an asynchronous callback to the components.

Stripe generates a nonce from the Card ID in the Issuing Card or Issuing Cards List component when a card is selected or loaded. Stripe then calls your callback function which returns an ephemeral key, and then renders a Show numbers button if the ephemeral key is valid.

Ephemeral key exchange

Your server-side endpoint needs to accept a Card ID and a nonce. It can then create an ephemeral key using Stripe.

Here’s how you might implement an ephemeral key creation endpoint in web application frameworks across various languages:

// This example sets up an endpoint using the Express framework.
// Watch this video to get started: https://youtu.be/rPR2aJ6XnAc

const express = require('express');
const bodyParser = require('body-parser');
const app = express();

app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({ extended: true }));

const stripe = require('stripe')(
'sk_test_4eC39HqLyjWDarjtT1zdp7dc');

app.post('/ephemeral-keys', async (request, response) => {
  const { card_id, nonce } = request.body;

  const ephemeralKey = await stripe.ephemeralKeys.create({
    nonce: nonce,
    issuing_card: card_id,
  }, {
    apiVersion: '2024-11-20.acacia',
    stripeAccount: '{{CONNECTED_ACCOUNT_ID}}',
  });

  response.json({
    ephemeralKeySecret: ephemeralKey.secret,
    nonce: nonce,
    issuingCard: card_id,
  });
});

Asynchronous callback

You must define an asynchronous function that accepts a named argument with property issuingCard which is a Card ID and additionally, a nonce property. This function must return an Object with properties issuingCard, nonce, and ephemeralKeySecret which are retrieved from the endpoint you set up in the previous step.

Here’s how you might implement this callback:

const issuingCard = stripeConnectInstance.create('issuing-card');
const fetchEphemeralKey = async (fetchParams) =>  {
  const { issuingCard, nonce } = fetchParams;

  // This may vary greatly based on your implementation
  const response = await myServer.getEphemeralKey({issuingCard, nonce})

  return {
    issuingCard: response.issuingCard,
    nonce: response.nonce,
    ephemeralKeySecret: response.ephemeralKeySecret
  }
}

issuingCard.setFetchEphemeralKey(fetchEphemeralKey);
document.body.appendChild(issuingCard);

You can customise and configure your Connect embedded components to match your website’s look and feel. You can set this configuration when you initialise the StripeConnectInstance. See customise the look of Connect embedded components for more details.
