@wanton ore I'm not sure I really follow what you are asking but you can choose the currency in the API https://stripe.com/docs/api/topups/create#create_topup-currency

[wanton ore]

I'll try to describe mu issue in example. We have 4 currencies on our Stripe account (eur, usd, gbp and aud). The default one is eur (default means it is the first currency that we choose when the account was created ). I need to add money for usd currency in test mode to test some our integrations. How I do it:

1. select "Balances" on dashboard
2. select "USD" tab
3. Press "Add to balance" button
4. Select "Refunds and disputes" reason and enter the value of amount field in USD currency
5. upload some image in "Attach your receipt" field and tick "confirm transfer" checkbox
6. press "confirm transfer" button
   Then I check the USD tab in part of "Future refunds or disputes or negative balance" block but do not see row with new created top-ups, but I can see new row in the same block on EUR tab.

How can I add USD on balance in test mode?

Have you tried the API? Sorry, I know next to nothing about Dashboard UI flows.

Also to hold a balance in USD you need a USD bank account, do you have that?

[wanton ore]

I've tried to charge money in USD and it shows on USB tab correctly

but I need add some more money to make test transfers to connected accounts

[arctic mason]

You don't really need a Topup to do that

https://stripe.com/docs/testing#available-balance we have test cards that make the balance available immediately

[wanton ore]

Also to hold a balance in USD you need a USD bank account, do you have that?
as I understand we can't add more currencies without bank account 🙂 am I right?

[arctic mason]

Also, usually you create a Transfer associated with an earlier payment and you can use that payment's funds: https://stripe.com/docs/connect/charges-transfers#transfer-availability

[arctic mason]

you just said you were able to accept USD and hold USD so I'm not sure I follow what you're describing

[wanton ore]

i'm telling about test mode - i 'm not able to make real transaction.

[arctic mason]

I'm sorry I'm still not following at all sorry

[wanton ore]
