Introduction

This tutorial covers how to create, retrieve, and update customer records, which are needed for payment processing and storing payment methods.

Create Customer

Use POST /customers to create a customer record. See the Onboard a Merchant tutorial for a concrete example.

Retrieve & Update

Use existing GET /customers/{customerId} and PATCH /customers/{customerId} endpoints to retrieve and update customer information.

Best Practices

  • Attach metadata to customers for easier reconciliation (order IDs, source, etc.).
  • Use webhooks to track updates to saved payment methods or customer changes.
