Store card and use later

In this chapter we show how to store a credit card safely and use in future. A customer enter the card once and billed later without the need to reenter it again.

Store card

This is a usual charge as we showed it in get-it-started with only these additions:

<?php
// prepare.php

/** @var \Payum\Core\Model\PaymentInterface $payment */

$payment->setDetails(new \ArrayObject([
    // everything in this section is never sent to the payment gateway
    'local' => [
        'save_card' => true,
    ],
]));

once the first payment is done you can get the customer id and store it somewhere

<?php
// done.php

use Payum\Core\Request\GetCreditCardToken;

/** @var \Payum\Core\Model\PaymentInterface $payment */
/** @var \Payum\Core\GatewayInterface $gateway */

$gateway->execute($getToken = new GetCreditCardToken($payment));

$token = $getToken->token; // if not null you are done. store it somewhere

Use stored card

This is a usual charge as we showed it in get-it-started with only these additions:

<?php
// prepare.php

use Payum\Core\Model\CreditCard;

/** @var \Payum\Core\Model\Payment $payment */

$card = new CreditCard();
$card->setToken($token);
$payment->setCreditCard($card);

// capture the payment
