Hi 👋

#

You are referencing this method, correct?
https://stripe.com/docs/js/tokens_sources/create_token?type=cardElement

#

I'm happy to keep discussing Tokens but I want you to be aware we do not currently recommend this integration path. Using one of our Payment APIs is the preferred approach and will likely make accepting local payment methods (e.g. Australian banks) much easier.

#

Unfortunately, we are onboarding our users in our own platform and are mainly using the stripe API to do that

charred monolith Jul 20, 2022, 10:46 PM

#

Okay so you are looking to create a bank account token?
https://stripe.com/docs/api/tokens/create_bank_account

visual chasm Jul 20, 2022, 10:47 PM

#

Yes, that's what I was using before but it doesn't seem to work for banks outside of the US

#

Like the Australian bank, I don't see a parameter for the bsb# there

charred monolith Jul 20, 2022, 10:49 PM

#

I don't think this approach was designed to work with banks outside the US but let me check

visual chasm Jul 20, 2022, 10:49 PM

#

#

sa the card token was only meant for US?

charred monolith Jul 20, 2022, 10:50 PM

#

Honestly Tokens were deprecated by the time I started so I'm still playing catch up.

#

So are you using Custom accounts and you need to use Tokens to create the external account for payouts?

visual chasm Jul 20, 2022, 10:51 PM

#

yes

#

If we can do it via tokens, that would help a lot.

#

But just in case we can't

#

Should I do it in another way? If so, what can you recommend?

charred monolith Jul 20, 2022, 10:56 PM

#

Okay I'm looking into the Token approach.

#

My colleague mentioned that the BSB should work as the routing_number parameter. Can you test that out and let me know?

visual chasm Jul 20, 2022, 11:03 PM

#

Sure, I'll try it out

#

but if that's the case, then what about canada who has these three?

charred monolith Jul 20, 2022, 11:13 PM

#

I believe if you look on that very table you will see this text underneath it when you have selected Canada:

When using the API to create a bank account, combine the transit and institution numbers to create a full routing number (for example, 12345678).

visual chasm Jul 20, 2022, 11:31 PM

#

oh okay thanks

visual chasm Jul 20, 2022, 11:53 PM

#

For Australia using the BSB as the routing number flags an error

#

Can you share the request ID?

#

Here's how you can find a request ID: https://support.stripe.com/questions/finding-the-id-for-an-api-request

granite slate Jul 21, 2022, 12:03 AM

#

#

https://stripe.com/docs/connect/testing#account-numbers that's the one I use, let me test and check our code too I'll be back

#

yeah 110000 / 000123456 is what you want

visual chasm Jul 21, 2022, 12:05 AM

#

it works now!

#

I'll try canada

#

I think this should work for most of the countries we support now. Thank you so much!

granite slate Jul 21, 2022, 12:10 AM

#

awesome

visual chasm Jul 21, 2022, 12:48 AM

#

So are tokens really depceciated

#

or not yet?

granite slate Jul 21, 2022, 12:59 AM

#

no they are not

#

For Connect + Payout they are the canonical way to collect bank account details
