SEPA Direct Debit

Vaulting

A payment method represents transactable payment information such as a customer's authorization to charge a SEPA Direct Debit account. Payment methods belong to a customer, are securely stored in the Braintree Vault, and have a paymentMethodToken attribute that you can store on your servers (with reduced PCI compliance burden) and later use to create transactions.

Create

Use Payment Method: Create to create a payment method for an existing customer using a payment method nonce received from the client:

PHP

$result = $gateway->paymentMethod()->create([
    'customerId' => '12345',
    'paymentMethodNonce' => nonceFromTheClient
]);

Alternatively, you can create a new customer with a payment method using Customer: Create with the paymentMethodNonce parameter.

Once successfully created, you can use Transaction: Sale with the paymentMethodToken parameter to create a transaction.

Find

Use Payment Method: Find to find a payment method:

PHP

$paymentMethod = $gateway->paymentMethod()->find('token');

If the payment method can't be found, you'll receive a Braintree\Exception\NotFound exception.

The return value of the Payment Method: Find call will be a PaymentMethod response object.

Note

The find action will also return a link to the mandate associated with the customer's payment method.

Delete

Use Payment Method: Delete to delete a payment method:

PHP

$result = $gateway->paymentMethod()->delete('the_token');
$result->success; #=> true

If the payment method can't be found, you'll receive a Braintree\Exception\NotFound exception.

PHP

$result = $gateway->paymentMethod()->delete('the_token');
$result->success; #=> true

If the payment method can't be found, you'll receive a Braintree\Exception\NotFound exception.

Note

The delete action will also revoke the mandate associated with the customer's payment method.
