Learn how PayNearMe's Payment Methods API tokenizes ACH, card, and digital wallet payment methods and links them to Customer IDs for reuse across orders.
The API can create five different kinds of payment methods:
- ACH
- Credit Card
- Debit Card
- PayPal
- Venmo
- Cash App Pay
PayNearMe tokenizes the data for each payment method and returns a payment_method_identifier, which can then be used to make a payment. Payment Methods are linked to the Customer ID (i.e., site_customer_identifier or pnm_customer_identifier), so that if a payment method is created for one order, it will display in another order with the same Customer ID.
