👋 happy to help
when you create an account you can pass in the optional param country https://site-admin.stripe.com/docs/api/accounts/create#create_account-country
in the case you don't it will default to your own country
this is not something that can be changed in the onboarding process
tiny bay
That means that is something i have to setup when i create a new stripe account?
heady shard
if you know the country of the Connect Account then yes you need to specify it at the creation time
tiny bay
But we are onboarding user from 3 different country. Do it mean i need 3 accounts? XD
heady shard
are you passing capabilities in the account creation request?
tiny bay
{
"type": "express",
"email": "test@test.de",
"capabilities": {
"card_payments": {
"requested": "true"
},
"transfers": {
"requested": "true"
}
I dont think so

seems like you are, that's what capabilities is in that (if what you posted is the parameters you pas to stripe.accounts.create )
tiny bay
Thats what i found in the API Logs in the connected account in the dashboard.
To be honest. Im not a developer. Im only searching for a solution because the developer dosent responde to me for 4 days.
Now a non developer try to find a solution XD
dim widget
well the solution would be to change the code that is making that API request to pass the country parameter, it seems like.
tiny bay
But who can i do that?😅 do i have to change the country parameter or the capabilities?
dim widget
well it depends. If in your code you know what country the user is from or where you'd like to have their Stripe account created in, you should just pass that value to the country parameter.
The other option is to remove the capabilities argument, which then lets the user pick their country in the Express onboarding page, that can pick from the countries you enabled in https://dashboard.stripe.com/settings/connect/express
tiny bay
Okay that means the capabilities argument should be removed right?
Or should be set in a proper way. If its empty, default value will be used from the main account right?
dim widget
no, if it's not set then the user can pick a country themselves, and then the capabilities of the account they create depends on the country they pick and what you configured in that dashboard page for the capabilities of an account in that country
tiny bay
Okay i think i understand. Question is now where do i made this changes now. Is there a documentation where i find the file i find this?
dim widget
no, since it's your own code and integration, we wouldn't know where files in your project are located
you could try searching for strings like 'card_payments' or 'stripe.accounts.create' in your projects folder to try to find the relevant parts. I really would recommend having your developer do this instead of course
