Hello

How can I help?

nimble badger Jan 4, 2024, 8:42 PM

#

Hi. We're currently using Bambora for our CC payments. Our flow goes like this:

User enter's credit card details into our form on the mobile app.
We send the card details to Bambora and are issued a 'token' for said card.
We send this token to our server and save/charge it.

#

How do I achieve this with Stripe Connect?

#

We should be able to charge this user at any time, repeatedly using the said token.

#

Can you provide more context on how Stripe Connect fits into this?

nimble badger Jan 4, 2024, 8:48 PM

#

We (the company) have clients who will then have clients of their own.

#

To make direct payout easier, we were recommended Stripe Connect.

#

Gotcha. would you be charging the customers as a platform or will you be using the connected accounts (your clients) for this?

nimble badger Jan 4, 2024, 8:53 PM

#

Yes. the client accounts will be used for charging their customers.

#

So you'd be using Direct Charges flow correct?

#

This is supported in the Standard Connect service?

lavish depot Jan 4, 2024, 9:00 PM

#

Not sure what you mean by that? Can you elaborate?

nimble badger Jan 4, 2024, 9:01 PM

#

Scratch that. Yes we will be using Direct Charge.

#

Cool, so one thing I'd like to clarify is that our APIs don't allow sending raw PANs to our endpoint.
So you won't be able to use your own form to collect payment method information.

You'd need to use Stripe Elements like PaymentSheet or CardElement
https://stripe.com/docs/payments/mobile

We have an end to end guide here on how you can set up payment methods on a Stripe account
https://stripe.com/docs/payments/save-and-reuse?platform=ios&ui=payment-sheet

But since you'd be setting them up for Direct charges, you'd need to make API calls by incoporating this too

Thanks, I think I understand what to do now. A couple more questions now.

lavish depot Jan 4, 2024, 9:16 PM

#

sure

nimble badger Jan 4, 2024, 9:17 PM

#

What is the review process for a new connect account?

Context: Company signs up with us, we want to create a connect account for them automatically. How much and what information do we collect before account creation, and is there any review process involved by Stripe?

lavish depot Jan 4, 2024, 9:19 PM

#

What type of connected account would you be using? I assume standard connected accounts (that's the only type we recommend using with Direct charges flow)

With connect onboarding, Stripe will pretty much take care of collecting all the information that's needed and verify

#

Great. One final question.

We, as a company, want to charge our connect account customers a monthly fee. Is there a way to do this directly?

lavish depot Jan 4, 2024, 9:22 PM

#

Yup

Thanks a lot for your clear and concise responses. Can I ask further questions in this thread at a later date? Or do I need to create a fresh one?

lavish depot Jan 4, 2024, 9:24 PM

#

We typically close out the threads daily. Feel free to ask a question in #dev-help and reference this old thread.

#

We won't re-open the thread but would be useful to provide context

Thanks. Have a good day.
