#evil3dm-Card Issuing

๐ happy to help
I'm a bit confused, when you say clients you mean the merchants (your partners)? or the end customer (for whom the card will be issued)?
ok, sorry for confusion, I'll give you the context.
I'm building a platform for individual (small businesses), for example photographer, architect, designer, plumber, etc.
Those individuals are users of my platform. (via Stripe Connect I will connect their stripe accounts to mine platform account)
On my platform they will have possibility to create invoices for their job. (via stripe).
Basically I want to make very tight integration with Stripe - and sync Products, Customers as well.
And in addition I want to create Card for my users, so they can use it. The concept is Card strictly related to their business needs.
And as I understand for Card Issuing I have to require that user's connected accounts are Custom.
And perhaps there are some specific permissions related to Card Issuance ? I saw Treasury permission, but I will not use Stripe Treasury, I need only Stripe Issuing
Issuing are not for Connect Accounts but rather for CardHolders https://stripe.com/docs/issuing/cards
so basically you'd have to manage those 2 entities separately
yes, But CardHolder instance should be created in scope of 'users' stripe account, meaning that I should do it via Stripe Connect ?
I don't understand the question sorry could you please elaborate?
sure, lets say I have platform stripe account P1 , and user of my platform have U1 stripe account.
If I want to create Card for user - I need to create CardHolder+Card objects within U1 Stripe Account. It would be possible when I connect U1 account to my platform P1 Stripe account with the help of Stripe Connect.
Does that make sense ?
@shut rune
yes you can create the Issuing Cards on the Connect Account but this means that each of those account would have to have access to the Issuing functionality
I think the best way to handle it is to create the Issuing Cards on your Platform Account
so basically I consulted with a teammate on this
your scenario works
so sorry for the confusion if there was any
ok, so lets wrap up. CardHolder+Card should be create at stripe account of my platform user, as I describe in scenario above. Right ?
what I meant is that you could create them directly on the Connect Account
I was wrong before by suggesting to create it on your Platform
my colleague explained how this would be favorable for your use-case
since you can send funds from their Stripe Balance to their Issued Card
ok, great
And as continuation, user's account should be Custom (because of card issuing thing) or it could be Standard ?
yes, exactly that's what I want to do.
Hi there ๐ jumping in as my teammate needed to step away, please bear with me a moment while I catch up on the context here.
ok
Yes, you'll want to Custom accounts.
I'm not sure if you've seen it yet, but this doc is useful for getting started with using Issuing + Connect:
https://stripe.com/docs/issuing/funding/connect
yea, it seems relevant. And I saw this page before, but have a feeling that it was updated with more information.
thanks for clarification
Any time!
