Hello, what surface are you using to collect these details? Stripe hosted onboarding, our embedded onboarding components, or your own custom form?
urban lichen
Stripe hosted onboarding
green ruin
Awesome in that case you can specify collect='eventually_due' and we will collect all known requirements for the connected account, whcih includes an external account. https://docs.stripe.com/api/account_links/create#create_account_link-collect
And if an account is not collected you can create an account link of type account_update which should collect outstanding details
https://docs.stripe.com/api/account_links/create#create_account_link-type
urban lichen
so, if a bank account is not collected at the time of onboarding, we create the account lik of type account_update. Will this take the user to Stripe hosted workflow again? and collect missing information?
green ruin
Correct

thanks @green ruin
is it possible to add bank account by Stripe Checkout Session?
also, can a user add multiple Express Connect accounts?

Hello! I'm taking over and catching up...
You might want to use the account management embedded component, which allows your users to update their bank account from your own site: https://docs.stripe.com/connect/supported-embedded-components/account-management
Otherwise, for Express accounts, you'd give them a link to their Express Dashboard and they'd change the bank account info from there.
You can't do this (add a bank account for payouts) with a Checkout Session.
I suppose a user could have multiple Express accounts. Why do you ask?
urban lichen
the user may not log into Express Dashboard. So, link of type account_update will do the needful, right?
@polar trout
also, can a user add multiple Express Connect accounts with same email?
polar trout
I'm not sure if an onboarding link set to update an existing account will collect external account information.
As far as multiple connected accounts go, I'm not sure I follow. A single email address can be associated with multiple Stripe accounts. Are you doing something in test mode that's leading to multiple connected accounts? More context about why you're asking would be helpful.
urban lichen
I want a vendor to have multiiple Stripe Express Connect accounts. Can we do that? the vendor has 1 email id
polar trout
What happens when you try to do that in test mode? Does it work as expected or are you running into an issue?
urban lichen
I have not tried yet, just checking as we are desigining a solution
polar trout
Can you tell me more about why a single individual would need multiple Express accounts?
urban lichen
a vendor may want to collect different payouts in different bank accounts for e.g. wages & tips.
this requires connecting 2 different bank accounts and hence 2 Connect accounts
because only 1 bank account can be linked for payouts per Connect account
so, to solve this we can have vendor create 2 Connect accounts
polar trout
For that use case I recommend you contact Stripe support, explain what you need, and ask them what the available options are: https://support.stripe.com/contact
Going back to collecting bank accounts during onboarding, I recommend you read through this page and then test the flows you want in test mode: https://docs.stripe.com/connect/payouts-bank-accounts
