I believe this is what you're looking for: https://stripe.com/docs/connect/standard-accounts

That doc goes into detail about how to handle onboarding

Thanks @deft gazelle , this is the flow I am currently following. My confusion is why its prompting users to enter a password to continue the onboarding flow?

[deft gazelle]

Are you using OAuth? Or Account Links?

Account Links, if I use type Express or Custom is doesn't require the linked user to enter a password to continue, only with the Standard type 🤔

const connect_url = `${req?.headers.origin}/niches/${nicheId}/settings/payments`;

const account = await stripe.accounts.create({
  type: 'standard',
  email: user.email,
});

const accountLink = await stripe.accountLinks.create({
  account: account.id,
  refresh_url: `${connect_url}?refresh=true`,
  return_url: `${connect_url}?return=true`,
  type: 'account_onboarding',
});

Standard accounts are standalone Stripe accounts, so that makes sense. They would have access to their own Dashboard separate from your platform, so they need to set up a login

[last raptor]

OK, whereas Express or Custom circumvents this requirement?

[deft gazelle]

Custom doesn't have Stripe-hosted Dashboard access. Express has its own stripped down Dashboard.

I'd recommend reading through these docs, as they explain all of this: https://stripe.com/docs/connect/accounts
