Hi @mahesh_dasari1 

What information do you want to see?

I hope you are not storing the customer credit card details in Magento. It is violation of PCI compliance.

If you are doing so you are putting your customers' sensitive data at risk.

If you are using PCI compliant payment method, you may see some encrypted tokenized value on order details page but not the actual card number.

As @Mukesh Tiwari said if you are storing credit card details in Magento then you are putting customer credit card at risk. Not sure if you are using an extension for payment gateway CIM.

Such extension allows you to some information like last four digit of credit card and some more information. Such information can be seen under Customer details in Magento admin. You can also look into payment and transaction table to see some of the basic details.

Magento out of the box does not saves CC details unless you are using Saved CC method which is deprecated while ago.

• Understand PCI Compliance:
  Magento does not allow direct viewing of full credit card details in the Admin Panel due to PCI DSS compliance. Just like in a game, there are strict rules you cannot bypass for security.

• Check Saved Payment Methods Section:
  Navigate to Customers > All Customers > Edit Customer > Payment Methods. If the customer has saved payment methods (like credit card tokens), they will appear here.

• Review Orders Tab:
  Go to Customers > All Customers > Select Customer > Orders. From here, you can check which payment method was used, though only the last four digits of the credit card will be shown.

• Check Invoices:
  Inside the Invoices tab, you’ll see transaction details. Again, you’ll find masked credit card information (last 4 digits + card type). This is like a game scoreboard showing only safe public stats.

• Review Transactions:
  Navigate to Sales > Transactions in the Admin Panel. If you filter by the customer, you’ll see related payment transactions with masked credit card data.

• Saved Cards with Vault:
  If Magento Vault is enabled, customers can save their cards for reuse like game. You can check this by going to the customer profile in Admin. Think of it like a saved game slot where only a portion of the data is visible.

• Payment Gateway Logs:
  Depending on the payment provider (e.g., Braintree, Authorize.Net, Stripe), details may be logged in the gateway’s admin portal. Magento will store only tokenized references, not the full card.

• System Configuration:
  In Stores > Configuration > Sales > Payment Methods, confirm which payment gateway is in use. Each gateway controls what card details are visible to admins.

• Check via API (If Needed):
  Use Magento API to fetch payment token information. You’ll still only receive safe tokenized data, never full card details. Like in a game, the API acts as a cheat code, but within limits.

• Customer Account Section:
  You can impersonate the customer’s account (if your Magento version allows) and check Stored Payment Methods in their account dashboard.

• Logs for Developers:
  If enabled, payment extensions log partial details in var/log. This is mainly for troubleshooting. Use it with caution, like checking a hidden level in a game.

• Always Follow Security Best Practices:
  Remember: Magento never stores full credit card numbers, CVV, or expiry dates in Admin for security. If you need more information, you must access it directly from your payment gateway dashboard.
