Getting permission to save a South Korean cardServer-side
You need permission to save your customer’s payment method for future use. Creating an agreement (sometimes called a mandate) up front allows you to save your customer’s payment details and charge them when they’re not actively using your website or app.
Add terms to your website or app that state how you plan to save your customer’s payment method details, and let them opt in. If you plan to charge your customer when they’re offline, make sure that your terms also include the following:
- The customer’s permission for you to initiate a payment or a series of payments on their behalf for specified transactions
- The anticipated frequency (one-time or recurring) and timing of payments
- How you determine the payment amount
- Your cancellation policy (if you’re setting up the payment method for a subscription service)
Make sure that you keep a record of your customer’s written agreement to these terms, and only submit charges in accordance with the agreed terms.

Create a new Customer or retrieve an existing Customer to associate with this payment. Include the following code on your server to create a new Customer:
