**Cards API is here!**

No matter which Payments API you’re using, now you can store, retrieve, and charge a single card on file on behalf of multiple sellers. Plus, Cards API includes webhooks to notify you of new, disabled, and updated cards and you can use the API to keep stored cards up-to-date as expirations and account numbers change. Learn more in the [Cards API documentation](https://developer.squareup.com/docs/cards-api/overview) and [blog post](https://developer.squareup.com/blog/cards-api), and let us know if you have any questions.
