Hi 👋
mortal swan
hello!
simple surge
Is the company name you want to display different from the one registered on the Account?
mortal swan
Registered on the Account meaning the Customer Object in Stripe?
mortal swan
Yes, sorry, the company name of the customer
simple surge
I thought you were trying to change the Company name for the business issuing the invoice
mortal swan
my mistake
Currently the Bill To field on the invoice only is showing the customers name and email, i need it to also show the company name for the customer as this is requirement for many entities to issue payment
simple surge
So you want the Bill To section to display the Business Name
mortal swan
Ideally, yes, the business name and customer name and email
simple surge
In addition to or in replacement of the Customer name?
mortal swan
in addition to preferably
simple surge
Where is the business name saved currently?
mortal swan
It is not currently saved in Stripe. I'm trying to determine what changes I need to make to my code to pass it to Stripe and have it appear. The business name is readily available when the invoice is created in our system. Just need to know how to get to show so I can understand where to save it on Stripe.
simple surge
Unfortunately the name parameter on the Customer is for either the personal or business name. So you would need to store that information there.

Got it
simple surge
And I have tested this, we don't allow making names 2 lines (they get grouped into a single line).
mortal swan
thanks for clarifying
simple surge
I can raise a feature request that we add a business_name property on the Customer object and render it on another line in the header. But I cannot guarantee if/when that change would be made.
mortal swan
understood, thanks for your consideration
simple surge
Do you think that would be a better solution for this scenario?
mortal swan
Honestly, I can argue it either way. It seems that having a specific contact at a business is useful internally but you arent billing the contact, you are billing the business so I understand why its an either situation
simple surge
Very true.
mortal swan
I think it probably makes sense the way it is
I will adjust our approach accordingly
simple surge
Okay, sounds good.
mortal swan
Thanks for the help

Happy to shed what 💡 I can 🙂
