Im facing issue with transaction in dev mode.
Can only make test mode charges You can only make test charges right now. Please activate your account to remove this limitation.
this is the error message when I test payment using IDeal
plain stratus
not sure what the issue is, you say you're in "dev mode" , so if some reason you try to make a live charge it's normal to get that error!

I need test some features
in dev mode
im already in dev mode and it says You can only make test charges right now
??
plain stratus
I don't follow sorry.
you're in dev mode, so you'd only use test mode Stripe API requests.
so what's the problem?
test mode charges are working fine, if you get that error it means you are trying to create live mode charges for some reason(like you are using your live mode API keys for some reason, maybe).

im using dev mode API key and payements intents created but fail on purchage
plain stratus
plain stratus
that's not the request that gives that You can only make test charges right now. Please activate your account to remove this limitation error. Do you have that one?
plain stratus
what are "txn details"?
plain stratus
ah ok I see
it's because you're doing this payment on_behalf_of another testmode Express account acct_1L5XsUQl0eAgkw3g
that would have been useful information to share upfront!
but in test mode you need to activate that account with test data, it won't just work
so for example when using Express you need to create the account, go through the onboarding in the AccountLink, and use the test information from https://stripe.com/docs/connect/testing#identity-and-address-verification- (e.g use 1/1/1901 as the date of birth, address_line_1, San Francisco, US as the address, etc) so the account is verified and active in test mode.

Sorry I missed it, I will check it.
also, whats the difference between charge API and paymentIntent API?
Im using paymentIntent API right now. But, charge API looks similar
plain stratus
the Charge API is deprecated and you can't use it at all

Ok. One last question. Is it possible to have clients business name in transaction statement after ideal payment?
plain stratus
you can set statement_descriptor on the PaymentIntent and I believe that should work
plain stratus
not sure what that means
tiny moss
I have multiple connect accounts (express) for multiple clients. And each account is connected to one domain
So, when someone buys an item from website using iDeal payment. Buyer should see connect account's business name in txn statement as a title
That's why I'm trying on_behalf_of
plain stratus
makes sense, in theory that's how it would be done, yep
on_behalf_of controls how the payment is presented to the customer in terms of which merchant is charging them
tiny moss
What's the solution? I have been stuck for too long
plain stratus
the solution to what exactly?
tiny moss
Business name is not displaying in txn statement
Instead name of account person displayed
plain stratus
I'd suggest writing to https://support.stripe.com/?contact=true with a detailed description and screenshots
tiny moss
writing an email would take much time so thought it would be easier to communicate here
I just need an business name in txn statement title based on ACCOUNT_ID of connected account.
plain stratus
afaik on_behalf_of is how that's done
so if it's not working as you expect you'd need to share complete context of an example PaymentIntent, screenshots of what you see, a detailed description of what you expected to see instead, so we can investigate and ask the product team for iDEAL what the options might be
