hi there! If the country which your Stripe account is in supports the specific currency, you can add the bank account in that particular currency : https://stripe.com/docs/payouts#supported-accounts-and-settlement-currencies
Otherwise, you'll need to open a Stripe account in that particular country that supports that settlement currency. https://support.stripe.com/questions/requirements-to-open-a-stripe-account-in-another-country?locale=en-x-debug
Thank you for your response, in this case how do the API Keys work, I think those are different for each account right.
I'm sorry If I misunderstood.
yes, you'll need to use different API keys to make the API request to the respective accounts
Can't I use a single primary account and different region accounts and respective bank accounts attached to that so that I can use the API keys of Primary?
that's possible to some degree. What you're referring to is what we call Connect. You would need to create/connect the regional accounts to the main account. When making the API call for the regional account, you would use the platform's (main account) secret key, and define the connected account id (regional) in the StripeAccount header : https://stripe.com/docs/connect/authentication
With this Stripe can do the payouts to reginal bank accounts right.
just so you're aware, you would still need to create another Stripe account
to make sure we're on the same page, can you give a few examples of regional bank accounts?
INDIA, CHINA, AUSTRALIA, CANADA, UK
What we need is that the amount collected from each region customers should be a payout to respective region bank account
to avoid the conversion fee for customers and business as well and Tax purpose
Stripe doesn't operate in China at the moment. You can open a Stripe account in the other countries listed though
So, if we want Stripe to do the payouts to region bank accounts, we must have a Stripe account for each region, which is not possible through Connect. right?
Connect is in essence a parent account, with many child accounts
so what you're looking to do is possible through Connect
Ok, thank you for the information. How can I establish the Connect and create the child accounts?
you would want to go through this guide for a start : https://stripe.com/docs/connect/explore-connect-guide
Also, you'll likely want to use Standard Connect accounts : https://stripe.com/docs/connect/explore-connect-guide
and this guide for how to accept payments : https://stripe.com/docs/connect/enable-payment-acceptance-guide
there's some repeat information in those guides i think
