// Connect to your stripe account
$stripe_account = Config('constants.Stripe_account');
$stripe_secret = $stripe_account['secret_key'];
$stripe = new \Stripe\StripeClient(
$stripe_secret
);
$delete_response = $stripe->customers->deleteSource(
$customer_id,
$card_id,
[]

return $delete_response;
}
catch(\Exception $e){
Log::error(
'Failed to delete card',
['message' => $e->getMessage(), 'trace' => $e->getTraceAsString()]
);
