Stripe : Add new card to already created customer

I have a stripe customer already added, I am figuring out to add new card to customer. I searched around but couldn't found anything confirmed to asnwer my following questions.

  1. Do stripe have any form of their own to add new card ?

  2. Is following is the correct way to add new card ?

    $customer = \Stripe\Customer::retrieve(Auth::user()->stripe_key);
// Got the customer details successfully from the above call.  
$card = $customer->cards->create(
  array( 
    "card" => 
      array( 
        "number"=> "4242424242424242", 
        "exp_month" => "12", 
        "exp_year" => "2016", 
        "cvc" => "123" 
      )
   )
);

It seems like the answer from @karllekko is outdated now. I found the following that seems to work good currently.

$email = $_POST['email'];
$customers = \Stripe\Customer::all(['email' => $email]);
$customer = $customers->data[0];    
$token = $_POST['stripeToken'];
$newCard = \Stripe\Customer::createSource($customer->id, ['source' => $token]);

Stripe does not have a direct form specifically for adding a new card to a customer, however you can use Checkout or Elements to collect the customer's card details.

The process for adding a new card to a customer would be as follows:

  1. Collect and tokenize the customer's card details using Checkout or Elements[0]. This will give you a Stripe token representing the card.
  2. Send this token to your backend, where you can use something similar to the following code to save the card to the customer:
$token = $_POST['stripeToken']; #for example
$customer = \Stripe\Customer::retrieve(Auth::user()->stripe_key);
$customer->sources->create(array("source" => $token));
