Hi there,
which means we need to build a separated UI form for every payment method that already exist in Payment Element.
Not sure I'm following here. You can use the same Payment Element in order to collect multiple types of Payment Methods
Or maybe there are any other ways to add a payment method with Payment Element with no purchasing?
Probably you are looking for something like this, in order to save the PaymentMethod without purchasing

Thanks!
But do we need to pass the payment methods list manually in this case or we can just sent auto and get the full list as in paymentintend api?

Hello 👋
My colleague had to step away
Give me a moment to catch up here
rain ferry
Sure!

Do you mean while using the SetupIntent API?
rain ferry
yes
orchid torrent
I don't think SetupIntents support automatic_payment_methods parameter yet
so you'll have to pass the payment methods explicitly using
https://stripe.com/docs/api/setup_intents/create#create_setup_intent-payment_method_types

Are you planning to support automatic_payment_methods parameter with setupintent?
Can we get the actual payment method list from the Connected account somehow? Little more info from this side: we use Connected accounts for our clients. That might be different settings from client to client. How can we get the list of payment methods for particular connected account? If there is a way

I haven't heard any chatter about this unfortunately
You could reach out to our support team to see if they've any workarounds

Let's step back a bit, you won't be able to setup connected account's external account for future usage.
What's your end goal? Do you want to charge your connected accounts using PaymentIntents API?
rain ferry
We are charging our connected accounts with paymenintents already). The question is can we set up payment method for connected account's external accounts with SetupIntent and Payment Element?
orchid torrent
I don't think that's really possible unless you create a customer object for these connected accounts and save the payment method on that customer object.

Can you expand a little bit more on how exactly you're charging them?
Are you using account debits?
rain ferry
we create customer objects and save payment method on that object.
so, we would like to do the same but with no actual purchase: just saving the payment method for future usage via Payment Element
orchid torrent
I understand that part but what I'm confused about is what do you mean by getting the payment method list from connected accounts exactly?
Because we're talking about two separate objects here;
- customer object (where the saved payment methods would go)
- connected account object (which really almost always only have one external account)
rain ferry
let me try to explain: we develop the platform that use our clients for organization the purchasing process for their own clients (let's call them clients_of_clients). so, every our client has his own account in stripe which is our connected account and we managing the payment methods available to show for our clients via our platform for their clients_of_clients. The case is: the list of available for our connected accounts payment methods can be varable (depends on what the clients deside to choose from our available payment methods) and might be different from client to client. but when the client_of_client visits our client's site and makes a purchase via our platform we show the payment methods for this client only with auto parameter in paymenintent with payment element. Our platform also has an option to add a payment method with no purchasing but saving this for the future usage. And when the client_of_client add the payment method he needs to see the only options that supported by out client connected account.
lot of words, sorry for that)

apologies for the delay, server is running a little busy.
So when you say available payment methods on connected accounts, do you mean the payment methods that customers of your client (connected accounts) would see when trying to make payments?
If so, then you can retrieve capabilities of a connected account and look at active capabilities
