Customers

Customers are the people and businesses that you sell products to.

They have two sub-entities:

• address entities that hold information about their billing address
• business entities that include information that you need when working with a business

Customers don’t need a business entity, you only need one when working with a business.

You can add customers, addresses, and businesses to invoices to bill for products.

Work with customers

Using the Paddle Invoice API, you can:

• List customers
• Create a new customer
• Get a single customer
• Update an existing customer

Archive customers

You can’t delete customers, but you can archive them to say you no longer need them. Archived customers can’t be used in Paddle and aren’t returned by default when you query the list endpoint.

To archive a customer, use the update customer method:

{
  "status": "archived"
}
