customerPaymentMethodRemoteCreate

mutation

Requires write_customers access scope. Also: Requires write_customer_payment_methods scope.

Creates a customer payment method using identifiers from remote payment gateways like Stripe, Authorize.Net, or Braintree. Imports existing payment methods from external gateways and associates them with Customer objects in Shopify.

The operation processes payment methods asynchronously. The returned CustomerPaymentMethod initially has incomplete details while Shopify validates and processes the remote gateway information. Use the customerPaymentMethod query to retrieve the payment method status until all details are available or the payment method is revoked.
