Customers

The creation of a customer is essential to the Acquired.com API, everything is linked back to the customer_id. Create a customer profile containing personal information before creating a payment, card or transaction. You can then retrieve details about a returning customer, as all payment information will be linked back to the customer_id. This process allows us to manage your customer profile for you.

Customer's can be created and managed from within the API or from within the Hub.

In the API you can:

• Create a customer
• Retrieve a customer
• Update an existing customer
• List all customers (you can also utilise pagination parameters to query specific customer records)

Note

Before you create a new customer, make sure that the customer does not already exist, as this can cause problems with further transactions etc.
