Backup Payment API endpoints are now LIVE 🚀
Brands can now programmatically manage backup payment methods for subscriptions through Loop’s Admin APIs. This enables brands to add or remove a backup card on a subscription, helping improve payment recovery and reduce failed billing scenarios.
What’s new
1. Add backup payment method endpoint - Allows brands to attach a backup payment method to an existing subscription. (Link)
2. Remove backup payment method endpoint - Allows brands to remove an already mapped backup payment method from a subscription. (Link)
Headless portal support
For brands using a headless customer portal, an Add backup payment URL is now available, similar to the existing Add / Update payment method flow.
This URL can be used to collect a backup payment method directly from subscribers and will be shared with brands upon request.
