This changes what your shop pays YoPrint. It acts on your YoPrint subscription, through Stripe, not on your customers' payments.
Replaces the card YoPrint charges for your subscription. Send a Stripe card token (stripe_token, tok_..., made with Stripe.js) and a new operation_id. To change the plan and the card together, use checkout with payment_method: replacement instead: one request, not two.
Billing operations. Every change is one billing operation, named by an operation_id you choose: 16 to 64 letters, digits, _ or -, new for each change. Keep it. The answer is the operation, as {"data": {...}} without success or status, and its HTTP status says where it stands:
200: done (terminal: true,outcome: succeeded). Reload the subscription.202: still settling, or it needs a recovery. Read it again withGET .../setting/subscription/operation/{operation_id}, and call.../recoverwhennext_actionisrecover.402: the payment failed (outcome: payment_failed). Follownext_action(use_different_cardorupdate_card_then_retry).422: either refused before anything happened (the error envelope, witherror.code), or the operation stopped safely (outcome: safe_failed, witherror_codeandnext_action).409: another billing operation is in progress for the team (billing_operation_conflict).503: Stripe or YoPrint's billing setup can't be reached (billing_provider_unavailable).
Never start a second change because an answer was lost or slow: read or recover the same operation_id instead, so you can't be charged twice.
Side effects
- Saves the new card at Stripe as the subscription's payment method.

Errors
401The API key is missing or wrong (
unauthenticated).402The provider declined payment and the terminal operation records the outcome.
403You are not allowed to do this.
api_access_not_in_plan: your team's plan doesn't include API access (Pro and above, with an active subscription or trial), so every request answers this until the team upgrades. When your role lacks the permission the operation needs, the body is only{"message": "Insufficient Permission"}. Other refusals use the error envelope, withunauthorizedoruser_is_not_authorized.- When
- You are not the owner and your role lacks Manage Billing. The body is
{"message": "Insufficient Permission"}, without the error envelope. - Fix
- Use the owner's key, or that of a member with Manage Billing.
404Not found.
page_not_found: the team slug is unknown, you are not a member of the team, or an id in the path is not one of this team's.code: null, with a message that starts "No query results for": there is no record with that id.409A different billing operation owns the team lifecycle or frozen state changed.
- When
- Another billing operation is in progress (
billing_operation_conflict). - Fix
- Wait and check the current operation.
422Validation failed or a terminal safe failure was recorded.
- When
- Stripe declined or rejected the card:
error.codeis Stripe's decline code (for examplecard_declined) orpayment_method_rejected. A card change never answers 402. - Fix
- Use another card.
- When
- The body has other fields (
invalid_card_update_context), or the token is missing or malformed (validation_failed). - Fix
- Send only
operation_idandstripe_token.
503Billing provider configuration or readback is temporarily unavailable.
- When
- Billing is temporarily unavailable (
billing_provider_unavailable). - Fix
- Read the operation again later.
Notes
- Part of your YoPrint subscription: what your shop pays YoPrint, not your customers' payments.
- AI apps (MCP connections) can't call this operation: they get 403
agent_operation_not_available. Use a personal API key.
