👋 Hello! For connected accounts that are not in the same zone as you, you should be able to do Direct Charges (using the Stripe-account header) or Destination Charges with on_behalf_of
errant field
Hi thanks a lot for your message ! Yes I saw this in the documentation but it says that connected accounts should have the "cards_payment" option if I remember correctly. Is their restrictions about this ? I can't find any country list talking about it apart from Europe countries... Do you think I could do direct payments to teachers in south america even if my stripe account is in France ? That would be so perfect !
toxic plank
Yes, you'd still need to request the card payments capabilitiy on the connected account if you want to accept payment (that would be part of the onboarding process).
errant field
So just to be sure you are saying that instead of indirect payments that are limited to the same country or SEPA zone with on_behal_of, direct payments are possible between different continents ? Because currently I'm just seeing this doc on stripe : https://docs.stripe.com/connect/account-capabilities#transfers-cross-border and its saying that international payments are just possible in SEPA zone...

Backing up for a minute- what specifically do you mean by "indirect payments"
errant field
O I have this documentation in french : https://docs.stripe.com/connect/charges. And it says that there I is three types of payments : direct payments, indirect payments, and payments and transfers
toxic plank
Ah, in English we call them direct, destination, and separate payment and transfers
So yeah, you can't use destination/indirect payments normally in separate zones BUT if you use on_behalf_of then you can use destination/indirect
And yes, you can also use direct charges

Thank you a lot for your help ! This is really great for us ! I have a last question about this, how can I know in which countries connected accounts can be created ? Like I imagine that it is not available in every country, isn't it ? Thanks again for all your help !!
toxic plank
You should be able to see which countries you can create connect accounts for in your connect settings (https://dashboard.stripe.com/settings/connect/onboarding-options/countries)
errant field
It says that it's for express accounts only (not standard I don't know why) and there is no south america country...
toxic plank
Ah, I didn't realize we don't support connect accounts in Columbia
errant field
I mean this is the list for express accounts but if I use stripe connect with standard connected accounts with card_payments set, isn't it possible in other countries ? Here the list is just for express connected accounts but I don't for standarts ones
toxic plank
It'd have to be a country that we support here (https://stripe.com/global) and I don't see Colombia listed there
errant field
Indeed there is no south america countries... Thank you for all your help, I just wanted a confirmation and this helped me a lot ! Have a great day !
