You can create an Express account via the API https://stripe.com/docs/api/accounts/create and type: 'express' and pass all the relevant info

topaz glade Nov 12, 2021, 10:59 PM

#

thank you, I'll try it right now

#

@tough wagon No, I am getting the same error as I was getting when doing the accounts->update(:
Stripe\Exception\InvalidRequestException with message 'You cannot accept the Terms of Service on behalf of Standard and Express connected accounts.'

tough wagon Nov 12, 2021, 11:02 PM

#

you don't have to pass tos_acceptance in the API at all though

topaz glade Nov 12, 2021, 11:03 PM

#

what do I need to pass to get transfers capability then?

#

I was checking the requirements on the connected account I can't make payouts to, and I am getting these:
currently_due: [ "external_account", "tos_acceptance.date", "tos_acceptance.ip", ],

Hum what are you really trying to do? You started this question with "I want to test transfers"

topaz glade Nov 12, 2021, 11:11 PM

#

I want to test making transfers to a connected account via UI in my app. Right now, when I am doing it, I get the error message: Your destination account needs to have at least one of the following capabilities enabled: transfers, legacy_payments

tough wagon Nov 12, 2021, 11:11 PM

#

Do you have an example account I can look at?

topaz glade Nov 12, 2021, 11:12 PM

#

acct_1Jv8Xc2HrFXqMdIi

#

I successfully tested transfers, but I don't want to do the onboarding manually via Stripe UI each time I seed my app with test data

#

I want to seed it with connect accounts with Enough capabilities to receive transfers

tough wagon Nov 12, 2021, 11:27 PM

#

hum I'm still lost

#

what do you call a "transfer". Do you mean https://stripe.com/docs/api/transfers/create where you just send funds to the connected account? Or https://stripe.com/docs/api/payouts/create where you move funds out of a Stripe account balance onto their own bank account?

topaz glade Nov 12, 2021, 11:31 PM

#

I mean a Transfer: i.e. transferring the money from the Platfrom to the connected account

#

I see in the docs that I can retrieve the requirements per capability via api, and so I ran it for transfers capability. I am getting the following back:

...
       "currently_due" => [
         "business_type",
         "representative.address.city",
         "representative.address.line1",
         "representative.address.postal_code",
         "representative.dob.day",
         "representative.dob.month",
         "representative.dob.year",
         "representative.first_name",
         "representative.last_name",
         "tos_acceptance.date",
         "tos_acceptance.ip",
       ]
...

#

so this would mean I have to accept tos for the connected account to get transfer capability

tough wagon Nov 12, 2021, 11:54 PM

#

Can you try completing everything but tos_acceptance?

#

you can pre-fill all of this on Account creation directly

topaz glade Nov 12, 2021, 11:56 PM

#

will do

topaz glade Nov 13, 2021, 12:14 AM

#

still setting this up. I need to add the "representative", and seems like I can't do it in one-go on connected account creation, as representative needs to have its own Person object

tough wagon Nov 13, 2021, 12:15 AM

#

just use individual instead of company to test, that's faster

topaz glade Nov 13, 2021, 12:20 AM

#

created the individual account now with all requirements other than TOS, still can't make a transfer

Then I don't know I'm sorry

#

Easiest is to create a custom account instead since they behave similarly

topaz glade Nov 13, 2021, 12:37 AM

#

ok, thanks for your help. I guess there's no way to do it for Express accounts then.

tough wagon Nov 13, 2021, 12:38 AM

#

I'd recommend reaching out to support to confirm

topaz glade Nov 13, 2021, 12:49 AM

#

thank you, I sent the question to the support now.
