Hi there

#

Paste the error in this thread.

#

Ok thank you. Here it is:

#

Stripe account ID You requested an account link for an account that is not connected to your platform or does not exist.

#

We're starting to worry that the account link API is not appropriate for users that have already created a stripe account on their own.

#

Is this the case?

#

Yes that is the case. The Account Link API and Connect Onboarding is only for new accounts. You must use OAuth to connect already-existing accounts.

#

Ok so we only use the Account Link API if we've created the account ourselves for them?

next spade Aug 9, 2023, 4:21 PM

#

Yep exactly

Ok, thanks for your help @next spade, really appreciate it 🙌
