hello! can you share the request id?

#

req_7eQm3jIOjCmkIa

#

We basically want to store the payment info once, and then be able to use it in the connected account. We may have more connected accounts in the future for UK, which is why we want to store the information in the platform account.

#

what's the connected account id?

your request is made using the platform's secret key, but you're missing the StripeAccount header if you're trying to create a direct charge - in essence, what you've done is to make the request on your platform account.

#

https://stripe.com/docs/connect/authentication - include the StripeAccount header and try the request again and see if that works for you

#

I know about that. What we want to do is register payment method ahead of time and use it in the future.

#

This is to register the payment method, not to make a payment

#

I can make the request using the stripe account header, but then the payment method would be stored on the connected account, thereby making it not usable for other connected accounts

#

Is there some config/settings change that would allow us to store the payment method on the platform account and then use connect to collect the payment?

#

not that i'm aware of - because BACS is only supported for those countries, and your platform account is not a supported countries, you're not going to be able to create it on your platform account

#

Can i add a country to a platform account? Or mark a connected account as a platform account as well?

#

you can have a connected account that is also a platform account - assuming it's also originally a Standard account. If you're planning on creating another account then connecting it to your current platform account, just make sure that you have the relevant details required : https://support.stripe.com/questions/requirements-to-open-a-stripe-account-in-another-country

#

To clarify(assuming we have the relevant details) basically we can create a new account in UK, and have it be a platform account. Then connect it to the existing platform account?

gimme a while to get back to you on this

#

Thanks a lot, you have been super helpful

#

i'm assuming you wanted to create the BACS debit PaymentMethod on your platform account, and then clone it to the connected account(s)?

hoary karma Mar 28, 2023, 12:44 AM

#

Yeah

round shoal Mar 28, 2023, 12:47 AM

#

we don't support cloning PaymentMethods apart from us_bank_account and cards - https://stripe.com/docs/payments/payment-methods/connect#cloning-payment-methods so cloning BACS wouldn't work

#

also, you need a mandate for BACS debits, which requires the customer to come back on session to agree to it anyway

hoary karma Mar 28, 2023, 12:49 AM

#

Does cloning work for SEPA accounts or not?

round shoal Mar 28, 2023, 12:57 AM

#

cloning won't work for SEPA also, similar to BACS debit, it needs a mandate

hoary karma Mar 28, 2023, 1:02 AM

#

Hmm, ok, so for those 2 if i still want to store payment info on some platform account, i would need to do use "Destination Charges" or "Separate Charges and Transfers" for connected accounts(assuming the platform account supports collecting the said payment)?

round shoal Mar 28, 2023, 1:03 AM

#

pretty much, yep
