Default
To determine if a payment method is the default for its customer:
Ruby
payment_method.default?
Determine payment method type
To determine the type of payment method (e.g. credit card, PayPal), you need to inspect the class of the payment method object.
Ruby
payment_method = gateway.payment_method.find("credit-card-token")
payment_method.class
#=> Braintree::CreditCard
payment_method = gateway.payment_method.find("paypal-account-token")
payment_method.class
#=> Braintree::PayPalAccount
payment_method = gateway.payment_method.find("apple-pay-token")
payment_method.class
#=> Braintree::ApplePayCard
payment_method = gateway.payment_method.find("google-pay-token")
payment_method.class
#=> Braintree::GooglePayCard
