Hi 👋

#

hello! any idea what I'm missing?

frosty oasis Apr 7, 2022, 5:39 PM

#

Can you provide a Request ID for this account onboarding link?
Here's how you can find a request ID: https://support.stripe.com/questions/finding-the-id-for-an-api-request

#

Thanks, 👀

#

Hmm...the country for this account is already set. I suspect that is why it isn't asking for it

#

ah interesting, account for the platform or for the connected account?

frosty oasis Apr 7, 2022, 5:49 PM

#

The connect Express account

#

aha okay so follow-up question, this is how I'm creating the account. It seems to default to US, is there a way to say this account can be in US and Canada?

const account = await stripe.accounts.create({
        type: 'express',
        capabilities: {
          card_payments: { requested: true },
          transfers: { requested: true },
        },
        email: user.email,
      })

Well the actualy country does need to be clearly specified so we can handle any currency conversions required when transferring funds.

#

And it defaults to US becuase your account is in the US:

country
optional
DEFAULT IS YOUR OWN COUNTRY

so how does Rocket Rides leave it up to the user?

#

@frosty oasis sorry for the ping, not rushing you but just want to make sure this thread didn't get lost in the shuffle

frosty oasis Apr 7, 2022, 6:18 PM

#

That's fair, some users are kinda bursty and it's distracting

north flax Apr 7, 2022, 6:18 PM

#

no worries 🙂

frosty oasis Apr 7, 2022, 6:20 PM

#

Have you reviewed the Conenct settings in your dashboard? Have you enabled Express for Canada?

north flax Apr 7, 2022, 6:21 PM

#

aha okay so that's probably the basic think I missed.

How do I do that?

frosty oasis Apr 7, 2022, 6:25 PM

#

It's called out here: https://stripe.com/docs/connect/express-accounts#onboarding-express-accounts-outside-of-your-platforms-country

Using Connect with Express accounts

Express enables your platform to manage payout schedules, customize the flow of funds, and control branding. Stripe will handle onboarding, account management, and identity verification for your platform.
