I also tried to see if the standard account could "revoke access" to platform A, but it seems standard accounts that were created via an onboarding link cant revoke the access. I dont know if thats different for standlone accounts as I cant test it (because of the verify issue)
👋 Hi there! Let me take a look
I believe you'd have to be onboarding accounts using OAuth in order to enable connecting to have the same account connect to another platform: https://docs.stripe.com/connect/oauth-standard-accounts
👋 taking over for my colleague. Let me know if there's any follow-up Qs I can answer!
so for a standard account to move from one platform to another, we have to use oauth? Once the account is on the new platform, do we still need to use oauth?
We're testing the scenario but the situation is that the standard connected account wants to leave their current plaform and join ours. So we're trying to work out whats involved in making that happen

do you mean as a platform? I'm not sure I follow

We don't recommend OAuth
even if your merchant has a standard account that was created by another platform
it's best to create a new one
unless they have specific pricing negotiated with directly with Stripe
They're unwilling to do that due to the loss in subscription revenue
in that case, they should reach out to us
would you mind explaining more?
They are a gym, and essentially using software to manage their subscriptions, and they want to move from another management tool, to ours
so if they create an entirely new account, they'll have 4000 subscriptions disappear.
they can still recreate them and backdate them... but yes I see why they would be unwilling
in that case yes OAuth would be the easiest way to connect to your platform
Yeah its mainly the loss in payment methods
they can copy PMs
To do so will still need involvment of the current platform as far as I am aware
no need
Interesting, i was under the impression that copying PAN data needed to be initiated by the platform.. maybe thats only for express?
because they have a Standard Account
gotcha.
ok, so our options are oauth or copying the data.
If we did go with oauth, will they eventually become a part of our platform so our platform keys will work and we dont need oauth?
they can also reach out to the Data Migrations team https://docs.stripe.com/get-started/data-migrations
if they require help
perfect, that might be a good option, its a minefield trying to understand it. Creating test accounts is very helpful but its still difficult to get the exact setup.

yes once authorized, you can use the normal connect API integration
let me know if you need any more help
