hello
tame chasm
- Yes you need to specify the country when you create an account
- Not all capabilities are available in all countries.
You should thoroughly review our Connect documentation as many of these limitations are explained
mossy acorn
Okay but is there a list somewhere for all the countries stripe supports and all the capability supported for that country?
As I am trying to maximise enabled capabilities for all countries
tame chasm
No, we do not have a list designed in that way.
But you can review the details for different account capabilities here
mossy acorn
ok thanks - so there is no where i can find out which capabilities support which countries other than just trying all of them via the API and receiving an error about a country not being supported?
tame chasm
I recommend you review our docs.
mossy acorn
I have read all of them in detail already and spoken to our account executive as we signed a large stripe connect contract
They referred asking here for a quicker response
Currently it seems I have to go to each stripe doc payment method to see the coutries it supports and that would take a very long time for each of the supported capabilities:
tame chasm
It doesn't make sense to request payment method capabilities in countries were they aren't supported. Why are you trying to do that?
mossy acorn
I'm not, I'm trying to create it so that if I know the customers country and then when I create the stripe connect account I want to enable ALL the capabilities that ARE supported for the users provided country
To do that I need to know for every single country stripe supports which capabilities it supports
So I was thiking of stripes API does not provide some logic to determine which capabilities are possible to be enabled then I need to store a map of country to supported capabilities, but to extract that info you are saying I need to go through every payment method doc page and find the countries manually myself?
i.e do I need to create something like this (generated by chatgpt but ofc not accurate):
tame chasm
Actually, it's not a simple list but this doc does have a form where you can review what capabilities are available for Connected Accounts with different Country, dashboard access, service agreement, etc.
mossy acorn
yes better i guess haha
how does everyone else do this? i assume this is a common case? seems strange that there isn't a technical way to do this and is a manual job
Also this form doesn't have all the capabilities, e.g. the API supports adding samsung_pay_payments for US but its not in the form dropdown
Also found this table, bit easier than the form: https://docs.stripe.com/payments/payment-methods/payment-method-support
Just does not map exactly to the actual possible capabilities
tame chasm
Correct. We don't have a doc that is oriented specifically to the way you want to solve this.
mossy acorn
Yeah the way I am trying to solve it based on my understanding, what other way do people solve this?
tame chasm
They request what they need at the time and update their accounts as they go.
mossy acorn
Ok got, have all I need - thank you
tame chasm
I'm happy I was able to shed a little 💡 on the subject, even if it wasn't exactly what you were looking for.
