👋 Hi there! Let me take a look into this for you
Bacs Direct Debit is supported in the Payment Element. For example, you can see it in the demo here, if you select the customer location as the UK: https://docs.stripe.com/payments/payment-element
Regarding enabling Bacs for your account, the request you shared points to the documentation here: https://docs.stripe.com/payments/payment-methods/bacs-debit#verification-requirements
Enabling this payment method on your Dashboard should prompt you to complete additional identity verification.

In this article it says - we cant use elements for setup intents and only support payment intents - https://docs.stripe.com/payments/payment-methods/bacs-debit
Setup intents are required for recurring payment right?
I have already enabled it in the account settings

Setup intents are required for recurring payment right?
It depends. If you create a Subscription directly, then you don't need to use SetupIntents. The first payment would be taken and create a PaymentIntent for you
So it depends whether you want to start a subscription directly, or just collect payment details for future use
Or if you started a Subscription with a free trial, for example, in that case you'd need to have a SetupIntent, since you're not charging the customer right away

We have monthly payment use cases, so we start a subscription and every month we have to hit the bank to get the subscription amount

OK, so if you're starting a subscription from your portal, you should be able to use Elements, take the Bacs payment and start the Subscription right away.
For example: https://docs.stripe.com/payments/advanced/build-subscriptions

ok, that means if I use elements to capture the bank details and then attach it to the customer. I could use the same payment method for future recurring cases as well
hardy shuttle
Yes, that's correct
