About this block

Payment Methods Update Banner is a slim border-b band on a bg-muted/40 fill that announces the August 1 change in one sentence and reassures in the next (saved cards, subscriptions, and open orders are unaffected). A card icon anchors the left and a link points to the full payment methods list. A chip row on the right names the change at a glance: two methods arriving with a plus, one retiring with a minus.

The changes come from a small array, so adding an arriving method or moving a retirement date is a single line. The chip row is the point: showing the two additions and the one removal as plain pills lets a buyer read the whole change without parsing the sentence, and the reassurance line stops it reading as a disruption.

When to use

Reach for this block in the weeks before a payment change, at the top of the store below the store navbar or above a checkout. The date it names must match the change on the payment settings, or a buyer who saved a retiring method is caught out at the till.

A natural flow around it on an Ecommerce Pro page:

Before

• Store navbar

After

• Payment section
• Checkout

What you can display

One strong use is the two arriving and one retiring chip row. Other payment update variants:

• Additions only. New methods announced with no removal, the chip row all pluses and a shorter reassurance line.
• Retirement notice. A single method being removed, the date and the alternative to switch to stated plainly.
• Regional rollout. A method arriving in named markets first, the country list carried by the link.

Tip: keeping the reassurance line about saved cards in the same sentence as the change does more than any headline, because the buyer's first worry is answered before it forms.
