👋 happy to help
Custom payment methods allow you to add a payment method to the PaymentElement, while controlling how to collect the funds from that PM
these payments will be processed outside of Stripe
since TnG is not yet supported by Stripe you can use CPM to add that payment method to your existing integration with Stripe in the PaymentElement and integrate directly with TnG

hello, thanks for the answer. The site is currently not using payment element from my understanding of payment element since it doesn't use the UI from https://docs.stripe.com/payments/payment-element
It uses the standard pick the payment option, enter details then checkout (ie selects card, enter card num and checkout using stripe).
How would the implementation / testing differ if it's like this? I already have a working checkout using stripe card option.

would you mind sharing a link or a screen recording so I could see what's already implemented?
upper ivy
Im not sure if i can do that but heres what i mean
In our checkout page, user can just input their details then our backend will create the intent/charge accordingly
flint herald
so you're using your own Inputs?
upper ivy
the input is using npm package https://www.npmjs.com/package/vue-stripe-elements-plus
flint herald
so not really our official libraries
you need to reach out to that library's mantainer and ask whether they support custom payment methods

I see. By the way, if the business' stripe account is SG based, can it still accept MY payment methods from TnG or FPX?

👋 Hey, taking over here, just taking a look
FPX is only available to merchants based in Malaysia. As you're just using a custom payment method for TnG, there's no country restrictions
upper ivy
so, for TnG since it uses custom payment method, I would use other payment services that support TnG like iPay88/HitPay and only use Stripe to store the payment records?
thick niche
Yes, that would be the main use case for custom payment methods
upper ivy
As for FPX, if the business wants to receive payments through FPX, they would need an additional Malaysia based Stripe account to activate and use it as another payment method?
thick niche
Yes, it has to be a Malaysia based account
For storing the payment records with the custom payment method, you'll probablly need to use the Payment Records API: https://docs.stripe.com/payments/payment-records
upper ivy
ah ok, thank you. Will ask any follow questions if any.
Can SG merchants receive payments using MYR currency? Or does it also need to be Malaysia based account
thick niche
Yes, they can process charges in MYR. Here's the complete list: https://docs.stripe.com/currencies?presentment-currency=SG#presentment-currencies
