The story
As a returning customer, I want to pay with a saved card, so that I can check out in under a minute.
Acceptance criteria
- Given I am signed in and have a saved card, when I reach the payment step, then my saved card is selected by default
- Given my saved card is selected, when I confirm the order, then I see an order confirmation with a reference number
- Given my card is declined, when I confirm the order, then I see a plain-language error and can pick another payment method
