I am not aware of a strict length limit for a parameter. Looking...
In the meantime, can you share a request ID where you're seeing a failure?
https://support.stripe.com/questions/finding-the-id-for-an-api-request
knotty widget
Oh great!
grave maple
Might be useful if you had that in the Docs
I am always used to the max being 255 for strings
this seems like an exception
knotty widget
We usually document any change to character limits in https://docs.stripe.com/upgrades
However, I don't see one for cardholder name
grave maple
Yeah seems like its something different because of a VISA requirement
knotty widget
Can you share the request ID? I'm a bit curious. Is this for issuing card?
knotty widget
hmm I can't seem to load that request on my end. Are you sure its the right ID?
knotty widget
Ah yup, this name is printed on the cards that are physically issues so the limit makes sense here
grave maple
yeah prob good to document it somewhere. Only shows up a handful of times as an issue.
knotty widget
It is documented here: https://docs.stripe.com/api/issuing/cardholders/create#create_issuing_cardholder-name
knotty widget
All good 🙂
grave maple
Do you know what gets used for verification
is it the cardholder name
or indiviual.first_name individual.last_name
knotty widget
what verification are you referring to exactly? Just to make sure I am on the same page
grave maple
when the card is charged
knotty widget
If you mean for authorization, I don't think either of the names matters really?
https://docs.stripe.com/issuing/purchases/authorizations
grave maple
I think that us authorizing

but before it gets to us there are bank checks / visa checks

👋 Taking over for my teammate and catching up!
Card networks will send the authorization request over to Stripe, who then sends it to the issuing platform to determine whether to approve or decline the authorization
grave maple
yeah understood but i know a few checks happen like zip code
etc
I was wonder if name is part of that
I assume so
random crypt
The card object in the issuing authorization request event you receive will include card name. That said, it's up to you as the platform to approve or decline the authorization
grave maple
So if a card holder's name is BOOGIE WOOGIE
we decide to approve or deny
I know certain things like zip code / cvc don't even reach us if its incorrect
random crypt
Right. Name won't be part of that initial validation since name is not required for a card payment.
