👋 happy to help

Hello, here is the code in Python if it helps.
invoice = stripe.Invoice.create(
api_key=secret_key,
stripe_account=account_id,
customer=customer_id,
days_until_due=365,
description=invoice_description,
pending_invoice_items_behavior="exclude",
collection_method="send_invoice",
application_fee_amount=None
if secret_key is not None
else application_fee_amount,
currency=currency,
metadata=metadata,
payment_settings=dict(
payment_method_types=[*STRIPE_PAYMENT_METHODS, "us_bank_account"],
),
)
on each PaymentMethod page (e.g. https://docs.stripe.com/payments/ach-direct-debit) we specify all of the restrictions
elfin viper
Oh, great. I see. So it's required to exclude ACH in case something except USD is used
tiny trout
this is why we recommend using the automatic payment methods
which uses LPM filtering
instead of passing payment_method_types
elfin viper
Could you please suggest how to enable automatic payment methods for Invoices?
tiny trout
they are enabled by default
you just need to omit the
payment_settings=dict(
payment_method_types=[*STRIPE_PAYMENT_METHODS, "us_bank_account"],
)
part of your call
elfin viper
Still, it would be nice to restrict the payment_methods set, since we might not support some techniques these payment methods use.
E.g. we didn't support "payment_intent.processing" before enabling us_bank_account
Is it not possible?
tiny trout
you can configure it here https://dashboard.stripe.com/settings/billing/invoice#:~:text=Default payment methods
elfin viper
If our clients are Stripe Connect accounts, we should configure it for every customer?
elfin viper
I guess I need some help with this. Is that possible to find that information in the dashboard?

Direct or Destination?
Is your Platform charging the customer and sending the funds to the Connnected accounts?
Or Connected accounts charging the customers directly?
elfin viper
Our platform charges customers
on behalf of Connected Accounts by specifying "stripe_account" on each request
Also, we have several clients connected directly with their own api_key
modest marsh
Also, we have several clients connected directly with their own api_key
Are they actually connected to the Platform? Or standalone Stripe accounts shared their API key with you?
elfin viper
Most of them are actually Connected. Some are not - just shared API key of their standalone Stripe account.
modest marsh
just shared API key.
Those will need to manage their payment method configurations themselves.
If you're using on_behalf_of it will use the payment method configuration of the Connected account.
What kind of Connected accounts are you using? Standard, Express, Custom?
elfin viper
Standard
We're not using on_behalf_of. Just stripe_account
I've looked through the documentation - we're using Direct charges
