SPICEPAY DEVELOPER DOCS
Customers & saved methods
A customer groups the buyer's payments and saved payment methods.
How it works
A customer groups the buyer's payments and saved payment methods. A reusable method should be associated with the customer's record and the appropriate consent.
Implementation
Create or reuse customer_id and attach it to payments. Request setup_future_usage: off_session when saving a supported method. Later payments may refer to a saved payment_method_id or mandate_id, using confirm and off_session where supported. Retrieve and remove saved methods with their own resource routes; do not store card numbers. Merchant-level customer operations may require an account-wide key. Removing a method can affect future subscription renewals.
