Also using Stripe PaymentMethod lib it’s works.

public function userAllPaymentMethods(Request $request)
    {
        $user = User::find(5);
        StripeStripe::setApiKey('{{KEY}}');
        $paymentMethod = StripePaymentMethod::all([
            'customer' =>  $user->stripe_id,
            'type' => 'card',
        ]);

        return response($paymentMethod);
    }

Result :

    The problem is not related to stripe, I think you are getting the right data, the problem is $paymentMethod is not encodable to JSON, that’s why you get an empty response, try adding dd($paymentMethod); before the return statement and check the result.

    I have the same issue. didn’t have time to investigate in deep. I just realized that method paymentMethod in cashier/src/Billable.php returns nothing.

    /**
     * Get a collection of the entity's payment methods.
     *
     * @param  array  $parameters
     * @return IlluminateSupportCollection|LaravelCashierPaymentMethod[]
     */
    public function paymentMethods($parameters = [])
    {
        $this->assertCustomerExists();

        $parameters = array_merge(['limit' => 24], $parameters);

        // "type" is temporarily required by Stripe...
        $paymentMethods = StripePaymentMethod::all(
            ['customer' => $this->stripe_id, 'type' => 'card'] + $parameters,
            $this->stripeOptions()
        );

        return collect($paymentMethods->data)->map(function ($paymentMethod) {
            return new PaymentMethod($this, $paymentMethod);
        });
    }

    return new PaymentMethod($this, $paymentMethod); this will return nothing instead of $paymentMethod. The solution for me was to overwrite PaymentMethod in mu user model the same way you did with stripe Lib.

    Here’s a solution: 

    $paymentMethods = [];

foreach ($user->paymentMethods() as $paymentMethod) {
    $paymentMethods[] = $paymentMethod->asStripePaymentMethod();
}

    Just loop through the payment methods and using $paymentMethod->asStripePaymentMethod() will get the payment methods for the user.
