👋 Welcome to your new thread!
⏲️ We'll be here soon! We typically respond in a few minutes, but in some cases we might need a bit more time (e.g., server's busy, you've got a complex question, etc.).
⏱️ We close idle threads, which makes them read-only. Once a thread is closed it won't be reopened, but you can start a new thread if you have another question.

hello! It's mentioned in that doc you shared :
application: Your platform is responsible for collecting updated information when requirements are due or change
radiant thorn
OK, so in means in "Your platform" ... That's us. We who making application which uses Stripe?
I want to be explicit.
This is legal stuff, so I'm being carefull @silver crag.
silver crag
I assume you are the Platform, and you have connected accounts, so yes, you are responsible for collecting updated information
radiant thorn
Thank you very much 🙂
One more question @silver crag . Are we able to get (legal entity) connected account's address and tax registrations? Without being responsible?
What informations are we able to get from connected account, when we leave responsibility on shoulders of Stripe platform?
Because, I'm aware Webhook does not include those information implicitly.
@silver crag, does 🍻 means conversation is closed? Just curious.
silver crag
🍻 is just my version of you're welcome
radiant thorn
Oh, got it.
silver crag
generally, you won't be able to get what Stripe considers as KYC information if you leave the responsibility on Stripe to collect those details

radiant thorn
So, there are only two options, first is being responsible - I mean a lot, and second not being responsible, but not gettting almost none information about our customers, right?
Sophie's choice
silver crag
pretty much yep
radiant thorn
Any exceptions you are aware of?
silver crag
I think it's possibly not as onerous as what you currently have in mind, you can use Stripe embedded components to help collect the information required e.g. https://docs.stripe.com/connect/supported-embedded-components/account-onboarding, https://docs.stripe.com/connect/embedded-onboarding. However, I will say though, that it's definitely still way more effort than letting Stripe handle everything on your behalf
radiant thorn
Yeah, I see. OK then, we have to consider this. Thank you very much for your effort. 🍻
I'm so sorry. On more question
Please
surreal drum
Sure
radiant thorn
Oh, hello. 🙂 What informations can we collect from those embedded components @surreal drum ?
surreal drum
Connect Embedded Onboarding allows the Connected account to fulfill pretty much all requirements to be able to activate the account.
Specifics depend on the country
radiant thorn
I see, and are we able to collect them, when using on our Plaform's website?
Embedded components are not my field of interest @surreal drum, so I'm not aware what am I able to get from them.
surreal drum
I see, and are we able to collect them, when using on our Plaform's website?
Well, they're sent directly to Stripe and used to activate the Connected account.
surreal drum
Embedded components are not my field of interest <@1031550875837149186>, so I'm ...
So, what are you trying to achieve exactly, on high-level?
radiant thorn
We are trying to get as much information as possible. We also want to collect some data in our application. We just want to check, our user is not laying to us.
When user leaves our site and register on yours we can't pair those informations.
Those embedded components are just HTML elements and just before sending you data, we check they match with our data, right?
radiant thorn
When user leaves our site and register on yours we can't pair those informations...
We are scared this could mean, let's say this user can do some fraund, or money laundering, or something.
surreal drum
Stripe conducts extensive checks on every new account that's activated. If they passed our check there's not much you should need to worry about.
radiant thorn
Yeah, I see, but we need this match - I mean address match.
When we use those embedded elements, we can prefill it with our information?
This could also help us to make registration process more efficient and user friendly.
OH. To embedd those elements to our app, we just need those JS code, right? So we can create our registration form, which will use those JS code and send you all necessary data?
In that case we don't need to call API to check if information match with information on our side.
surreal drum
Correct.
surreal drum
Happy to help.
