What happens behind the scenes
PAX creates or updates a credit card record. Active cards are available to finance credit card workflows. Inactive cards remain visible in this settings screen and remain linked to historical records.
The last-four field is cleaned in the browser so only digits are entered, up to four digits.
Troubleshooting
The card will not save
Likely cause: Card Label is blank or the server rejected the save.
Safe fix: Enter a label and save again.
Contact support if: The label is populated and the save still fails.
I entered letters in Last 4 Digits and they disappeared
Likely cause: The field accepts digits only.
Safe fix: Enter only the final four digits if you want the card identified that way.
Contact support if: Digit entry does not behave correctly.
The card still appears on old statements after deactivation
Likely cause: Deactivation prevents new use; it does not remove historical records.
Safe fix: Leave historical records intact.
Contact support if: Historical card activity is tied to the wrong card.
