[BUG]: unhandled wallet account email with trailing whitespaces on PaymentRequest for Apple/Google Pay integration

[ivanwidj]

What happened?

When using PaymentRequest to handle apple/google pay integration, create payment_method (POST v1/payment_methods) might fail if the email address from the wallet account is invalid (e.g. having trailing whitespaces [email protected] ).

Though these kind of emails seem to have already been caught/handled on newly created wallet accounts, in live/prod scenarios a small percentage of old accounts still have email addresses with trailing whitespaces.

A proposed solution is to trim trailing whitespaces from email address value before using it on billing_details.email when creating payment method within PaymentRequest flow

Thanks for flagging this! We've added it to our roadmap to trim whitespaces from emails before returning them
