    BraintreeCustomerSearch::addressStreetAddress()->is("111 First St.")

    BraintreeCustomerSearch::cardholderName()->is("John Doe"),
    BraintreeCustomerSearch::paymentMethodToken()->is("the_payment_method_token")
]);

Credit card numberanchor

Searching on credit card number has a few restrictions. If you search using "starts with" you can only enter up to the first 6 digits. If you search using "ends with" you can only enter the last 4 digits. And you can't search on "contains."

  1. PHP
$collection = $gateway->customer()->search([
    BraintreeCustomerSearch::creditCardNumber()->startsWith("411111")
]);

$collection = $gateway->customer()->search([
    BraintreeCustomerSearch::creditCardNumber()->endsWith("1111")
]);

Expiration dateanchor

Expiration date also has restrictions. "is" and "is not" work, while "starts with," "ends with," and "contains" do not.

  1. PHP
$collection = $gateway->customer()->search([
    BraintreeCustomerSearch::creditCardExpirationDate()->is("12/13")
]);

$collection = $gateway->customer()->search([
    BraintreeCustomerSearch::creditCardExpirationDate()->isNot("12/13")
]);

Created atanchor

You can search for customers that were created at a certain time. For instance, you can find all customers which were created in the past 3 days.

An example:

  1. PHP
$now = new Datetime();
$past = clone $now;
$past = $past->modify("-1 hour");

$collection = $gateway->customer()->search([
  BraintreeCustomerSearch::createdAt()->between($past, $now)
]);

Payment method token with duplicatesanchor

You can search for customers that have duplicated credit card numbers using payment method token as a reference.

An example:

  1. PHP
$collection = $gateway->customer()->search([
  BraintreeCustomerSearch::paymentMethodTokenWithDuplicates()->is("paymentMethodToken")
]);

All customersanchor

You can get a list of all customers stored in the Vault. This will return a resource collection of customer objects. Search results are currently capped so this may not work for everybody.

  1. PHP
$customers = $gateway->customer()->all();
