  1. With destination charges. If I read this correctly, https://docs.stripe.com/connect/destination-charges

With certain exceptions, if your platform and a connected account aren’t in the same region, you must specify the connected account as the settlement merchant using the on_behalf_of parameter on the Payment Intent.
I must pretty much always use on_behalf_of if my business (polish) and the content creator (stripe connect account; e.g. US) are not in the same region?

This relates to question 1. because if I change the custom public business name (on the bank statements) via stripe dashboard it now shows the custom name rather than the individuals name at checkout. But during onboarding there was no question for the custom public business name. Does it work when I prefill the custom name? Where would the stripe connect user be able to change the public business name in the express dashboard?

  1. In the german version of Stripe Connect it doesn't give me the option to onboarding an "individual" without a registered business. It asks me on business type whether I'm "freelancer", "company" or something like "non profit". However in my case content creators (e.g. Youtubers) are rarely registered businesses like freelancers. Do german content creators need to register themselves as freelancers with the german government or is that not necessary to use stripe connect as an individual?
#

That should be all my questions on best practices for now.

Hi! Looking into this!

If you want to know my business stripe connect integration plan. We onboard content creators all around the world as stripe connect users with the transfer capability only and then do commission charges with the buyers using destination charges to protect their identity and put us as the intermediary.
