#mhenrixon - Account Statement Line
gleaming burrow
What do you mean?

I am seeing if you can disable that. But unless you are doing destination charges on behalf of the merchant, it will be your platform's statement descriptor that is sent to the bank
gleaming burrow
It isn't a merchant, it is a service, more like paying for someones time
strong pond
I'm sorry, I meant the connected account
There are a couple kinds of charges you can make, this is the most common to be used with express accounts https://stripe.com/docs/connect/destination-charges
gleaming burrow
We can't use destination transfers because we don't want to require the connected account to exist on stripe until they want their money.
I guess I could change that logic to avoid it for the first checkout/payment intent and use it for subsequent payments.
strong pond
Ah so you are doing separate charges and transfers? You charge as the platform, later create the account, and make a transfer to it then?
In that case it would also be your platform's statement descriptor on the bank statement.
Had to drop off looking in to disabling that setting for a moment anyways. I will be able to look again in a minute
gleaming burrow
We noticed that otherwise stripe pays the receiver immediately and we need to delay payout until confirmation from both people
strong pond
Ah I see
So yes, in this case, they can set whatever they want in that field but it will not be used
I will see if you can disable that setting from appearing to them to avoid confusion though
gleaming burrow
Yeah, I was thinking I clicked something wrong in the onboarding somehow
Any step we can remove for the user is amazing (apart from the KYC, they should do all the KYCses)
strong pond
Unfortunately I am not finding a way to explicitly skip that page in express onboarding
You can set this when you create the account https://stripe.com/docs/connect/statement-descriptors#set-the-static-component-for-a-connected-account
For some account settings this does skip the page for the user but I have not gotten a chance to test if it does
Would you be able create a test account with that set and click through the onboarding process yourself at the moment?
