Bolt’s embedded component library includes a component that enables shoppers to update their payment method from their merchant storefront account.
The component syncs with the shopper’s Bolt account to retrieve previously saved payment methods and addresses, and it can populate a newly added payment method or address back to their Bolt account.
Before You Start
These instructions assume that you:
- Have an active Bolt Merchant Account
- Have reviewed Bolt’s API collection
- Are using Bolt’s Accounts Components.
Step 1: Install Script
Add the following script to the page where a shopper can manage their payment methods:
Embed.js
<script
id="bolt-embed"
type="module"
src="{BASE_URL}/embed.module.js"
data-publishable-key="{your-bolt-publishable-key}"
async
></script>
<script
id="bolt-embed"
type="text/javascript"
src="{BASE_URL}/embed.js"
data-publishable-key="{your-bolt-publishable-key}"
async
></script>
<script
id="bolt-embed"
type="text/javascript"
src="{BASE_URL}/embed.js"
data-publishable-key="{your-bolt-publishable-key}"
></script>
Base URL
The Base URL ({BASE_URL}) should be one of the following, depending on the phase of your implementation process:
- Production:
connect.bolt.com - Sandbox:
connect-sandbox.bolt.com
The value should replace {BASE_URL} in the script to create a full file string: connect.bolt.com/embed.module.js.
Publishable Key
Your Bolt Publishable Key ({your-bolt-publishable-key})can be found in the Merchant Dashboard. Go to the Developers tab, then scroll to Keys and find “Publishable Key.”
Step 2: Create an Instance of Bolt
const bolt = Bolt("<<my_publishable_key>>");Step 3: Create Payment Selector Component
const selector = bolt.create("payment_selector");Step 4: Update Payment Method for User
The appropriate page configuration depends on if you use Bolt SSO.

This component returns tokenized card information. You’ll need to handle how to apply this update to the user’s account.
