## Props

*This element takes no consumer props.*

## Events

Pass callbacks in the create options or React props.

### `onLoaderStart`

Runs after the loading skeleton first paints and before `onReady`.

**Signature:** `(() => void)`

### `onReady`

Runs after the element's first complete paint.

**Signature:** `(() => void)`

### `onError`

Runs when the element fails to load or crashes. The fallback remains visible. Use `code` for programmatic handling. `sourceKey` identifies a failed host-state source.

**Signature:** `((e: { message: string; code?: string | undefined; sourceKey?: string | undefined; }) => void)`

## Methods

Call these on the handle returned by `create`, or through a React `ref`.

### `mount`

Mounts the element in `target` and starts loading. React components mount themselves.

**Signature:** `(target: string | HTMLElement) => void`

### `destroy`

Removes the element and releases its frame and subscriptions. You can call it more than once. React removes the element automatically.

**Signature:** `() => void`

### `update`

Merges new props into the mounted element. In React, change the component props instead.

**Signature:** `(options: Partial<CardCvcElementProps>) => void`

## Styling

Style these parts through `appearance.classes`. Use camel case or kebab case for property names and include units. Page stylesheets can't reach the element's frame. The framework validates each declaration before injecting it.

| Class                         | Targets                                         |
| ----------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------- |
| `.whop-CardField`             | Card number, expiration, or security code field |
| `.whop-CardFieldError`        | Card validation message                         |
| `.whop-CardFieldInput`        | Bordered PCI input container                    |
| `.whop-CardFieldInputFocused` | Focused PCI input container                     |
| `.whop-CardFieldInputInvalid` | Invalid or incomplete PCI input container       |

```ts theme={null}
const payments = whop.payments.create({
  appearance: {
    classes: {
      'whop-CardField': { borderRadius: '8px', fontWeight: '600' },
      'whop-CardFieldError': { borderRadius: '8px', fontWeight: '600' },
      'whop-CardFieldInput': { borderRadius: '8px', fontWeight: '600' }
    }
  }
});

// 5 classes use this shape
payments.update({
  appearance: { classes: { 'whop-CardField': { fontWeight: '700' } } }
});
```

In React, pass `appearance` to `<Payments>`. Set it globally with `WhopElements({ appearance })`.
