Stripe Elements is really good. It has been an absolute help.
Now if only we could get something similar for the Connect account stuff. So many different edge cases for countries and businesses, that the only reasonable approach is to autogenerate a form, and hope it makes sense.
Example: Japanese business need to put in their address in kana and kanji, both personal and business address. They also need to specify their gender (and are the only ones who have to do this). I believe they also need some form of personal and business IDs.
Form validation? Forgettaboutit!
Note: I realize these requirements are most likely not strictly determined by Stripe.
Here's hoping Elements expands to Connect accounts in the near future! :)
- edwinwee 9y agoElements works with Connect! Any platform can integrate it. We're also working to improve the connected account flow. In the US, we recently launched Express Accounts to help with this, and we hope to bring it to Japan soon. https://stripe.com/docs/connect/express-accounts https://stripe.com/docs/connect/express-accounts

So many different edge cases for countries and businesses, that the only reasonable approach is to autogenerate a form, and hope it makes sense. We're working on it! Express international support will ease most of the pain in this space (coming soon), and we have talked through ideas for how we can make Elements that handle things like international bank account and routing numbers. We also want to make it easy to migrate from Custom to Express, since you'll get i18n/L10n for free as it lands, and we'll handle things like requesting additional information from your users and showing the right (validated!) fields.
