You said: ```It's not totally obvious to me but if we want to enable Affirm for Connect accounts does the customer have to use the Stripe dashboard to enable Affirm first when using the Payment element? I'm not sure how to tell but I think we're Connect Standard.
It depends mostly on whether you are using Automatic Payment Methods or not
Are you explicitly setting payment_method_types?
rare tiger
I'l double check but I believe the answer is yes.
Yes, we're passing payment_method_type
oak pecan
In that case you should not have to have anything turned on. If the Connected Account qualifies for affirm in this case then it will show up.
You should be able to test this pretty easily

We're not live yet and I think I toggled it in the platform and test account prior to testing so I wasn't sure.
oak pecan
Yeah the Payment Method stuff in the Dashboard is for Automatic Payment Methods
Doesn't really come into play if you are setting payment_method_types explicitly
rare tiger
Interesting. I'm guessing it's only being passed because we previously used Elements.
oak pecan
Mostly just depends on your integration, yeah.
rare tiger
If we're using Automatic Payment Methods is that when requesting capabilities comes into play?
oak pecan
No capabilities are only relevant for Express/Custom accounts
With Standard, basically all capabilities are requested by default
rare tiger
So if we stop explicitly passing payment methods is the payment methods inside the dashboard then honored (meaning the customer would have to toggle it on in that case)?
oak pecan
Then you should have the option to dictate defaults from your platform: https://dashboard.stripe.com/test/settings/connect/payment_methods
If you click "Edit settings" for "Your connected accounts"

Perfect thank you @oak pecan
