I been reading thru all this documentation and I am still not clear on what code I need to put in .vue to display a button to the user in my application that they click and the stripe financial connections interface opens just like when you click the "Launch demo" here https://docs.stripe.com/financial-connections

I see, from these use cases: https://docs.stripe.com/financial-connections/use-cases what mirrors your use case the most? I'm trying to better understand how you're tyring to use it. Like, are you already using Stripe and using Payment Intents, then trying to use financial connections? Can you add more details to your exact business use case?

currently all we do is credit card payments we strip, but we use link the old way that doesnt support ach anymore. What we now want is to be able to allow our users to add a bank account and use it to pay via ach. Is not shopping cart related is business transactions from our site. Our use case is ach direct debit payments and mimics adding money to their wallet in our system via ach

Okay so your best approach is to migrate to our PaymentElement UI element and let us do all of this for you

golden cobalt
#

with the paymentElementUI, my understanding is that I would have to create a div to be used by the paymentElement to fill. Where I would prefer to have a link (that I use some call to stripe to create) and this link is clicked by the user and stripe takes care of creating a modal popup for the user to interact with.

Sure, you can, I'm just recommending that you don't and you consider PaymentElement. It'll be way better and drastically easier.
If you really don't want that then I can explain how to do it, it's just a lot more complex

I have downloaded the vue-cra sample app and it seems that example is using the payment element. Currently my issue is that by the time one of my users clicks pay, they are already 3 modals deep and if there is a way to get a configured url from the stripe java sdk that I can put to a button for the user to click and be launched into the PaymentElement, that is what I was looking for. but it sounds like it is not as easy as asking stripe for a popup instead of giving it a div to populate, is that correct?

Yeah, Payment Element needs to be mounted to a div to work - under the hood Payment Element will render whatever popups that are necessary to complete payment

golden cobalt
#

I get that, it is just a lot of UI to make sure doesn't get crowded unless I do my own modal that just has the div for stripe to populate. I understand, again I was just looking to match the functionality of the "Launch Demo" button on the https://docs.stripe.com/financial-connections page. so that "Launch Demo" button is either not using the paymentElement or the initial popup modal is from the docs.stripe.com site itself, is that a correct assumption?

are you collecting bank account details for future payments? Or accepting a payment immediately?

golden cobalt
#

we are collecting bank account details for future payments, yes

silk escarp
#

but not accepting a payment immediately?

golden cobalt
#

in some cases. For example we let the user configure their payments to add money to their account in our system for later use and sometimes as they are performing a transaction if they dont have enough money in their wallet they can add a new payment and use it immediately.

is the first flow also accomplished with the PaymentElement?

silk escarp
#

no neither of those two use PaymentElement, I'm giving you an alternative

golden cobalt
#

Ok thanks let me take a look at all these code and see how it goes. Appreciate it

silk escarp
#

Sure thing! But really if I were you I'd rework the UI to have PaymentElement cleanly in the payment flow that offers cards, bank accounts and many of our other payment methods all in one place!

golden cobalt
#

Ok thank you

silk escarp
#

sure thing!

@silk escarp Real quick

#

if I use the PaymentElement i can save the payment methods for later us as well?

(have to run but @uneven frost is taking over)

i guess if you just wanted to do financial connections, this is probably a good place to start. Like what koopajah mentioned though, we really recommend Payment Elements instead since it makes it easy for you to accept other PaymentMethods with the same code

the direct API flow should work fine for you then

yes, you should try it and see
