Hi there, you can refer to this page https://stripe.com/docs/connect/required-verification-information for the required information

If I am using an Express account, can I create sub-accounts without collecting information? Is it ok to create a sub-account using the pages provided by Stripe?
real viper
Yup, if it's express account, you don't need to collect the information as Stripe does for you.
wise niche
For example, I am an e-commerce platform and the merchant is my sub-account. Do I need to provide a URL for my merchant to create a sub-account? A page like this.
real viper
Yes, you can share the onboarding URL generated by Stripe to your merchants to start the onboarding process
wise niche
Ok, can I use the Stripe API to generate this web url for my users? In my application, it is not possible for me to generate urls every time I click on the console when a merchant creates a sub-account.
real viper
Yup there you can use the account link API to generate these URLs. https://stripe.com/docs/api/account_links/create?lang=curl
wise niche
Ok, let me take a look at this，thank you!
Need I to create an Account before using the Account link?
real viper
Yes, you can create an Account via Account API, and pass the account ID to the account Link API.

How can I conveniently get the status and missing information of the sub-account? so that I can send it to the merchant for prompt.
real viper
you can check the requirements property https://stripe.com/docs/api/accounts/object#account_object-requirements

If the transfer API is used to transfer money to the sub-account, is it possible that the money can only be transferred to the balance of the sub-account, and then the sub-account can be transferred to the bank card by withdrawal? Can't we transfer directly to the sub-account's bank account?
real viper
For express account, you can use destination charge with on_behalf_of flag to make the connected account the settlement merchant
wise niche
I understand that this function is to pay directly to the sub-account. Can I set a time or an event to trigger the money transfer to the sub-account? For example, I need to make sure the customer receives the goods before the merchant receives the money.

Hey! Taking over from @real viper – just catching up

hi 😁

In cases where you need a delayed transfer to a connected account, you're better off using separate charges & transfers: https://stripe.com/docs/connect/charges-transfers
There's no way to do what you want with destination charges.

When creating a sub-account, can I set the withdrawal period to a specified two days per month? I found that using the API can only be set to one day.

as in you only want the account holder to be able to pay out their balances on certain days?
not sure what you call "withdrawal period" is exactly.
wise niche
Payout settings->Payout schedule
This can only be set to one day of the month, not two days
upper zinc
I'm really not sure what that would mean to have two days(like I can get a payout on the 10th of all the money accumulated over the month, and then on the 11th I might get a payout of any money I might have made that became available that day?). But yes, that's not an option.
if you want a more custom cadence of payouts you'd have to switch the account to manual payouts and implement business logic to call the API as needed to create the payouts (https://stripe.com/docs/connect/manual-payoutsa)
wise niche
Ok, Because my requirement is that the sub-account can payout on 15th and 30th of every month.

if you want a more custom cadence of payouts you'd have to switch the account to...
Oh, the page not found!
