hi, I am trying to implement ACH, what the test account number and routing number provided, when I try to create customer using the token it get the following error: This bank account is not a valid source for payments. Only valid sources can be attached to a customer. You can validate a bank account at creation time by passing the parameter usage='source'. The particular issue is: You must provide the full name of the bank account

irctc018: I think you're missing some fields https://stripe.com/docs/api#create_bank_account...

hi, do stripe api support retrieve by metadata? Ex: return all Customers with {"active_customer": True} ?

kienpham2000: no

ok thanks

good evening...

I was wondering if the enemy has a competing product of stripe "connect"

hi markin

Braintree has Braintree marketplaces which are more like connect and managed accounts

There is a "partners api" which is more like standalone accounts but is being revamped

Hello. I'm playing around with Stripe Connect and had a question related to fees. Instead of the primary account (me) absorbing the transaction and payout fees, is it possible to pass that fee along to the managed account?

kylekampy: you'd want to charge directly then

I must be misunderstanding something. So I won't use `destination` on the charge then?

kylekampy: nope https://stripe.com/docs/connect/payments-fees#c...

Just found that! Thank you so much!

When charging directly, do payouts for managed accounts still have the 0.5% fee?

kylekampy: yes

But they absorb that fee then, and not the "platform" account, correct?

Stripe hasn't started charging the fee so the logistics aren't totally sorted out but if you charge directly, I'd assume the connected account be responsible

hey there, I'm trying to use the ruby Stripe api impelementation, and I've just passed a DateTime object to a subscription create call (the trial_end property). It's saying it's an invalid integer, I'm ugessing because it wants a unix timestamp? Is that true, what is the prefered method to call on a DatETime object to get the thing that Stripe wants?

Oh, interesting. Good to know, thanks. Since those direct charges aren't visible to the platform account, I'm assuming then they don't add up towards the platforms account gross volume. Meaning no better deals at 80k, right?

also, if this is the case, shouldn't the Stripe ruby library actually just take DateTimes?

kylekampy: you'd want to talk to sales, there is some sort of volume pricing when you charge directly but I fogrot how it works

DoctorMonocular: if you have activesupport included (like a rails environment) then you should be able to call .utc on the datetime object

ah whoops I meant .to_time.to_i

ok so like date.utc.to_i?

oh right, date.to_time_utc.to_i

Thanks for your help, markin! I am grateful for your constant help here.

yeah, I think you guys should consider having the ruby library just take a datetime, that would make the api cleaner

DoctorMonocular: I'd file a github issue for that recommendation :)

hey guys

should I generate this script on the backend and pass it to the frontend through an api call? <form action="{{actionUrl}}" method="POST"> <script src="https://checkout.stripe.com/checkout.j...; class="stripe-button" data-key="pk_test_6pRNASCoBOKtIshFeQd4XMUh" data-image="/img/documentation/checkout/marketplace.png" data-name="Stripe.com" data-de

markin: thanks for your help :)

frege: why generate it on the backend?

markin: I guess I could just pass the values. I'm most concerned about the data-key

should it be hardcoded on the front end?

markin: by the way, is there a good implementation of a standard card card form that has the features you might want, basically a cusomizable version of stripe's checkout form?

frege: it depends on your application set up, most application setups have some sort of templating engine that could read the key from some sort of global variable / environment variable

I could just pass this through the api call that frontend makes to the backend

this is the constant key right?

the single one that my company account receives from Stripe

so the managed fee payment is 2.9%+.30+.5%?

DoctorMonocular: there are some pre-made card forms like pskeuocard but I don't tend to like any of them

bostonmacosx:

frege: you have a total of 4 api keys, test publishable, test secret, live publishable, and live secret

frege: the key for that is your publishable key

I gotta learn what their difference is

markin: was there a message there?

bostonmacosx: whoops I meant to type in yes

so a direct payment is more economical

frege: basically the publishable key is for tokenization and meant to be used client side, the secret one is for your server-side code and should be kept secret

frege: public key for things like the stripe.js tokenization

bostonmacosx: you pay the .5% for managed accounts no matter what

gotcha

is that like .pub for ssh-key?

`publishable key` ^

kinda

Hi

ok so how does someone claim their money from a managed account

How can I get fee amount of charging or refunding?

there is an expandable section in the response...

anyone there?

I forget the name exacely "balance_transaction" is expandable in the charge object

then you will receive all the fee infformation in the response

OK

I know markin will answer before anyone

But if I have multiple merchants, and you can buy shit from them, and you can put multiple shits in your shopping shit cart

How do I pay out to multiple people with one stripe transaction?

Duc: you get it

ok,

let me check

thanks bost...

Does refund event data contain balance_transaction too?

ok, bypass last question

what languate you using?

bostonmacosx: what do you mean, you'd add an external account to the managed account

cxmu_: you have to make multiple charges

ok so that is confusing to me

will need to figure it out

markin: heres another question

if i am stripe connect, and i want to control the customer data

can i use my customer data and charge them on behalf of a merchant using my platform?
