Hi, let me help you with this.

#

I would always suggest creating PaymentMethods to charge your customers: https://docs.stripe.com/api/payment_methods/create#create_payment_method-us_bank_account

#

Bank Accounts is a legacy concept, it uses a deprecated Sources API: https://docs.stripe.com/api/customer_bank_accounts/create#customer_create_bank_account-source

Hello @jagged dust , thanks for the response!

#

The option of ban_accounts seemed interesting because it's said it won't notify users during the migration: https://docs.stripe.com/get-started/data-migrations/ach-imports#ach-emails

#

Would be possible to go with this route to avoid sending unnecessary emails to users, but conver their bank_account into payment_method to not rely on a deprecated resource?

#

In any case the customers might legally need to receive the emails, but with PM option you won't need to do it on your own.

#

Is this because of mandates? Would be necessary to create one for every ACH payment_method?

Considering we intend to have confimed SetupIntents for the subscriptions

I don't know how migrations intake form works exactly. I believe if it's Stripe-to-Stripe migration, you will not need to involve the customers much.

#

But I would double check with Stripe Support: https://support.stripe.com/?contact=true

teal dune Jan 21, 2025, 1:53 PM

#

It's from a third party provider. But sure, I'll continue contacting support on that matter

#

But in any case, I think this might be relevant:

Is it possible to convert bank_account into payment_method?

jagged dust Jan 21, 2025, 1:54 PM

#

I think it should be possible. Let me check...

#

You can probably try passing a Source into payment_method parameter: https://docs.stripe.com/api/setup_intents/create#create_setup_intent-payment_method

#

But not sure if Bank Account object will work. It's best to try.

#

I think since creating a bank account will create a Source, it will work: https://docs.stripe.com/api/customer_bank_accounts/create
