Hello! Your vendors (the ones getting paid) would go through Connect onboarding.
The people paying typically do not.
wicked gust
Yeah, I know. But we are onboarding restaurant owners. They are already stressed, busy, and impatient. The onboarding asks pretty much everything of them. The success rate getting them to use our app will probably be low if we ask for so many details.
I really want to use Stripe here, I just wanted to know if there's a way to avoid shooting ourselves in the foot
For instance, they are asked for the last 4 of their social... you know?...

Connect onboarding is required, and the information being collected is required. It's to comply with laws, regulations, and our financial partner requirements.
wicked gust
ok, and to do split payments (someone buys a pizza, we send the restaurant $15, and keep $5 type of deal) - for that we need connect, right?
warped musk
Yep.
wicked gust
cool. thanks!

There's more information here if you're curious: https://stripe.com/docs/connect/required-verification-information

What about skipping the climate contributions step. I do appreciate the gesture, but is there a way to yank it out?
by the way, the link you gave me lists many fields as required for first payment, but it won't let you complete onboarding without it
wicked gust
The link you sent me allows me to set my own contribution. Not remove the step from onboarding
warped musk
Are you using Standard accounts?
warped musk
Ah, good, can you share the link? I don't have a Climate-enabled account handy.
wicked gust
yes
warped musk
I want to update some internal docs.
warped musk
Perfect, thanks!
