hello! how are you trying to connect the test mode connected account?
by using default connect method. No API
what default connect method are you referring to?
By Stripe platform
Connect -> + Select account type -> Express -> and copy the link.
Pasted on my different account and that is showing this error.
that's via OAuth, there're some quirks about it. But you really shouldn't be using that to onboard accounts, the preferred flow now is via Account Links : https://stripe.com/docs/connect/express-accounts#configure-onboarding
What do you mean by onboard accounts.
So this is the case.
I have two different stripe accounts with two different emails. Both are on testing mode not verified for live payments for now.
So I am trying to create one a platform account and other a seller account by connect. I am not using API because first I am trying to check all process by stripe UI.
So I created a connect account link and pasted on other account and getting this error.
If you got my issue.
your seller account is a Standard account?
How can I check this?
if you share the account id i can take a look
acct_1Msd5mBZiAWYKIvr
This is the account ID of seller account I want to.
it's a live account, and it's a Standard account
so like the message suggests, you need to verify it even though you're attempting to connect it in test mode
But I created that account on test mode. Why its live?
Its in testing. I don't have live option because my account is not verified as I said earlier.
i get that it's in testing in the Dashboard. But for OAuth, it's considered as a livemode account and you need to get it verified if you want to use OAuth to connect
it's just one of those weird quirks
One thing can you let me know.
Can I connect my both accounts with each other by using connect?
yep, that's possible
Alright.
I'll handle the issue .
If I have any question I'll ask separately.
Thank you for your time Alex
