I guess you mean you want to prevent duplicate accounts for the same user/email/person?

[outer belfry]

yup

[potent elm]

Not possible directly with Stripe, you'd need to handle that validation yourself

[outer belfry]

ok

[outer belfry]

but i am using stripe connect onboarding..so am not able to get the account number for validation

👋 taking over for my colleague. Let me catch up.

would you mind elaborating?

[outer belfry]

i want to prevent duplicate bank accounts to be added for the same connect account

i am using individiual custom connect

but the first bank is taken via stripe ui..connect onboarding..so am not able to get details to hash and store

so how is it possible to prevent same person entering same bank details as before

[rare talon]

I'm not sure I fully understand, let me try to rephrase and let me know if I'm getting it correctly

sorry for the delayed reply

so basically you want to prevent your Custom Account from adding a new bank account which he already has previously right?

what you can do is first create a bank account token using https://stripe.com/docs/api/tokens/create_bank_account

once you do you can check the https://stripe.com/docs/api/tokens/object#token_object-bank_account-fingerprint

then you can list all of the accounts external bank accounts https://stripe.com/docs/api/external_account_bank_accounts/list

and check whether you have a previous account with the same fingerprint

if that's the case you can inform the connect account that they have previously added the bank account

otherwise you can proceed and create the external bank account for the connect account https://stripe.com/docs/api/external_account_bank_accounts/create
