@cinder depot there isn't, for now Standard accounts require real data as they are real accounts that can go live
we are working on improving this but it will take a while to ship
as for the second question, creating a PaymentMethod is just a "one-off" and that is not searchable not unless you use it for a payment or attach it to a customer
cinder depot
When we try to complete the direct charge (calling Stripe::PaymentIntent.create) it is saying the payment method is not found
harsh glen
yes that's because your code is creating the PaymentMethod on your own platform account so it only exists there. To use direct charges you need the PaymentMethod on the connected account instead
This is covered in details https://stripe.com/docs/connect/direct-charges#create-a-charge
does that make sense?
harsh glen
awesome!
cinder depot
we are able to send the connected account when we are doing PaymentMethod.create. Do we need to pass the account id when doing PaymentMethod.retrieve? and if so, can we pass it the same way?
elfin hinge
When you say "send the connected account", do you mean pass the Account ID as the stripeAccount?
cinder depot
correct
elfin hinge
In that case, yes you would use the same parameter on the PaymentMethod.retrieve call and pass it in the same way
cinder depot
awesome
