## Statements (checkable)
0. Stripe's Endive changelog (opened 2026-10-29, Breaking) removes the payto field (account_number, bsb_number, pay_id) from the update PaymentMethod call. Previously the API accepted these PayTo-specific fields with a 200 status but never persisted the values.  [✓0 ✗0]
1. On Endive, sending payto or any of its sub-fields when updating a PayTo PaymentMethod returns an error. Other fields such as billing_details and metadata can still be updated; no stored data is affected because the values were never persisted.  [✓0 ✗0]

## Fix
```text
Remove payto, payto[account_number], payto[bsb_number] and payto[pay_id] from PaymentMethod update calls.
```
