Managing Customers

You can use your dashboard to create, edit, and delete customers without writing code.

Create a customer

  1. Login to your dashboard and go to the Customers resource.
  2. Click the Create customer button, and input your customer's name and email address.

After creating the customer, you will be redirected to its details page, where you can update or delete the customer.

Update a customer

  1. On the customer details page, click the pencil icon.
  2. Edit the customer details or metadata, and click the save button.

Your changes should immediately reflect on the record.

Delete a customer

  1. On the customer details page, click the Delete button.
  2. After ensuring that the resource belongs to the customer you want to delete, click the confirm button.
Deleting customer records

Make sure to double-check the customer record you are trying to delete, as it cannot be undone once you confirm the deletion. You have to manually create the record again or wait for your customer to make another PayRex transaction to automatically generate their customer record.
