Hey Shawn, the Payment Method record type is not supported in SDF. That is what we consider an "Implementation" record, which is typically specific to one account. SDF works with customization records and strips out most account specific data. I am not saying that SDF should never support this type of use case, but it is not a focus at the moment. You may try using CSV for exporting the data. What we think will be really useful is to allow the deployment of an SDF project to also trigger a CSV import, provided the CSV file and the mapping (already supported in SDF).

Thanks @Mariano Saenz (NS Eng Lead) for the clarification. In our case custom payment methods are defined but we want them in all the sandbox environments as well as prod, I think?
but good to know it's not supported so I can stop banging my head trying to figure it out

Right, I understand. Payment Methods is what we call "Implementation Data" (or at least I do :)) - and of course there is a need to easily synchronize it across multiple accounts.

I totally agree that it's implementation data - but then again so is something like a custom record and that works great with SDF (yay for that)
