Hello

Hey!

#

What do you mean by "verify the data"?

#

Like no, you can't validate any account data in Stripe without creating an account with that data.

#

If that is what you are asking?

vague current What do you mean by "verify the data"?

Just some regular old validation basically, whatever the embedded component does before it accepts the data

vague current Aug 15, 2024, 1:10 PM

#

Ah yeah no you can't do that

#

You would have to write that validation yourself

#

And we may change our validation at any point so it wouldn't really be reliable

torpid flame Aug 15, 2024, 1:10 PM

#

Yeah

vague current Aug 15, 2024, 1:11 PM

#

Overall our API validation wouldn't change though

torpid flame Aug 15, 2024, 1:11 PM

#

The easiest solution is to swap the account creation steps and business data input steps on my side then

vague current Aug 15, 2024, 1:11 PM

#

Since that would be a breaking change

#

I'm not sure I understand why this would boost your conversion to begin with?

#

vague current You would have to write that validation yourself

Yeah I wanna make it work with embedded components due to the liability side of things, so the solution is clear.

vague current I'm not sure I understand why this would boost your conversion to begin with?

Due to the nature of what I'm building, there are like 3-4 onboarding steps in total. I would assume that if I "hype up" the user by having them choose their pricing plan, having them upload their logo, display name, etc, that they would less likely to be turned away from even trying my product

vague current Aug 15, 2024, 1:14 PM

#

Gotcha well you can always prefill a bunch of info that you collect yourself from the user when you create the account

#

So that would be a sort of inbetween here

#

But yeah you can't truly validate any of this until you actually create the account

torpid flame Aug 15, 2024, 1:15 PM

#

Yeah that makes perfect sense.

#

Thank you so much for your time & help!
