Payment Method Updater configuration

Configure the Payment Method Updater (PMU) service to automatically update stored payment methods through your payment gateway provider.

Zuora integrates with each Payment Method Updater (PMU) provider differently, so the configuration steps vary for each PMU service. To use the PMU feature, first register for the account updater service with your chosen provider and review the prerequisites. After you register, complete the configuration steps for the PMU service before you use it.

Note:

If you enabled the Multi-entityNo Content found for /db/organizations/zuora/repositories/prod-sitemap/content/documents/external_publications/platform/user_management/multi_entity/Del_files/multi-entity.dita feature, apply for a merchant account for each entity. Use the corresponding Merchant ID to set up the Payment Method Updater for each entity.

The Zuora PMU service updates payment methods based on the payment gateway type. You can configure one Payment Method Updater for all payment methods that use the same payment gateway type. Updating payment methods for specific gateway instances is not supported.

After you set up the updaters, configure the start date for the PMU service based on the bill cycle day. Requirements vary by gateway. For more information, see the page for your specific account updater.
