Let me try and dig up the documentation on this - give me a minute

#

Found it! https://stripe.com/docs/terminal/designing-integration#locations

Design an integration

Plan the high-level architecture for your Terminal deployment, including readers, SDKs, and locations.

#

The main goal for setting this location is to optimize auth rates

Excellent, thank you! If I have any extra questions about this, I'll bring them up, but that looks to me like it'll be enough to satisfy my ops team. 😄

My ops team came back with a request:

They would like to know the expected impact on authorization rate that using a central location for our platform account would have, as compared to the current transactions using the "ungrouped readers" location.

We don't have specifics on what the expected impact would be - that's something support may know more about (you can contact them at https://support.stripe.com/contact)

Nothing from your side really has much to do with that, I assume? Cool, thank you for the confirmation! 🙂

👍 We mostly handle developer/technical questions here so things involving trends and impacts to auth rates are usually better to ask support 🙂

I had assumed as much (so much that I was hesitant to even ask in the first place!). I do thank you for helping me! 👍
