Several of our clients are B2B and use the company name for reference. They are using Stripe 1.4.4 not are not seeing the business named included in the Stripe site info or the payment in passed back to the Order details.

According to Stripe docs -  How the business name is captured:

Payment Element / Checkout - If you're using Stripe's pre-built payment UI, you can enable the "name" field, which collects the customer's name (individual or business name)


API integration - When you create a customer via API, you can pass the name parameter, which accepts either a person's name or business name

We are seeking guidance on how we can get the business name passed when Stripe is the payment method used. 

Can you please look into including Business name (and customer name) into your Stripe.   We would like both, if possible. 

We look forward to your reply.

We did update Stripe to 1.4.4  on cart version 1.4.3,  and it solved some of the issues.  Still working on rather it is the client Stripe settings within Stripe account for validation or if we need to  interface with you about and API update. Will get back

NEXT question -  since you also have sent 1.4.4 PayPal notification out we did go ahead an update PayPal also,  be are seeing issues using it in 1.4.3 cart.  Can you confirm that it should work?  or do we need to roll back?  Seems there are significant coding changes in the 1.4.4 vs 1.4.3 and we wonder if that is part of the problem.

Additional question on PayPal ,  is the AbanteCart On boarding provisioned to allow for act on behalf to take payments via PayPal?
It use to require a PayPal Pro account to do so.

We are still on 1.4.3 AbanteCart -  should we update to stripe 1.4.4?

Also  have you tested Act on Behalf when using the new Stripe process?  One of our clients is have some difficulty with it.
It worked flawlessly prior to your  moving to Stripe AbanteCart connections

On the other hand, the USPS API offers more advanced features for complex shipping solutions, including bulk shipping, custom logistics, and enterprise-level integration. While both APIs are used for interacting with USPS services, the Web Tools API is simpler, while the USPS API is better suited for larger operations needing a more comprehensive shipping and logistics system.

We are WHY2 in the Market Place and have been using the latest USPS API for cart versions starting with 1.4.0 and forward.

Can you please explain what you are referring to "suited for larger operations needing a more comprehensive shipping and logistics system."  What do you think is missing?

Hello,  we are WHY2 in the MarketPlace and our USPS extension has been updated to the OAuth requirements since AbanteCart Verison 1.3.4.

You can check it out here: 
https://marketplace.abantecart.com/usps_integration

And you can look thru our manual here:

https://why2central.net/docs/usps-overview/

and if I had that I would have provided it.  Here is what they said yesterday in a chat support:

And this is why I'm suggesting to reach out to AbanteCart. Because the account creation was made from their application. Not directly from Stripe, all tools that was used is also from the side of AbanteCart Which we don't have access to.

as for locating the created account by them which is blank/new, AbanteCart will have the right tools to locate this for you.

although the extension seem to setup,  within the Stripe account side NO new company was setup.  All was a huge fail.

this test was on a clean new install so there were no unknown issues from other extensions etc.

There should NOT be these ongoing issues with a payment process.  We understand why you moved to the Connect as it is beneficial to your business,  but it needs to work correctly for the users of AbanteCart.

Our fix for the moment for our clients it to turn OFF STRIPE and just use PayPal.

PS,  we provided you with Stripe info to fix previous issues on your side.  IMO it should NOT be our responsibility to spend our time and energies interacting with STRIPE to be able to provide you (AbanteCart) how to manager your Connect to work correctly.   Over the 15+ yrs we have interacted with AbanteCart we have provided a great deal of our time in supporting and improving AbanteCart.   And have been happy to contribute,  but you need to step up and work with STRIPE and get this working.

On the above existing account turning it off did nothing. 

I repeat I strongly believe that the connect is still not configured correctly .  Here is my supporting argument for that.

Use an account that has NEVER had any Strip account,  I installed the Stipe (this is a 1.4.2.1 cart)  following the prompts within the extension.

I got the Connected to Stripe successfully (see screen shot)

Only Cards are selected within the extension page as the allow payment methods  -

I then went to test a purchase and you can see that the LINK and the BANK ACCOUNT are enabled.

Additionally, the extension did NOT add the business into my existing Stripe account  as I cannot find it within my account,  nor find the endpoint listed so don't ask for the account ID.

Apparently after spending a great deal of more time with Stripe support it is your ABANTECART CONNECT settings that is causing this result.

PS;  I see there is an API version update released Nov 17   Accounts v2 and Connect improvements: We've made several updates to the Accounts v2 API, including support for listing payment methods.   Since it is payment methods and inability to manage from the client side perhaps this would be a fix??

Yes  we have cleared cache and we have made NO change to the Stripe extension.

However I have a thought and questions:
She had a previous Stripe account prior to Stripe Connect -  is it possible there is something left over?

And when setting up Stripe Connect does your coding establish the endpoint URL and endpoint signing Secret?  Or does account holder need to establish those within their Stripe Account? If they still need to establish

I have not found adequate how to info in the AbanteCart.com website for this.  The instructions https://abantecart.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/AD/pages/17170482/Stripe seem to relate to the non-connect .

As when we arrive at the developers > Webhooks,  there are selections to be made   between Your Account  and Connected and v2 Accounts -  which is correct for your connect extension?

Next do we select ALL events   or only Selected events?   if selected  which ones??

I have PMd you the info.

Which account ID are you asking for?

I contend it is YOU that does not understand,  nor following the steps as presented.   
If you are logged into your MarketPlace account and go the the product you wish to extend support and click on the GET HELP

You will see the status of that previous purchase -  it will tell you if your support is expired date  and if you click on the extend support from WITHIN that page, it will then take you to the main product page  and with AUTOMATICALLY  add the extend support and the support ONLY fee.

armonecity - ALL extensions obtained from the MarketPlace rather they are free or have a fee are considered to be purchased.

Extensions that are provided as part of the core coding should be considered FREE, and they do not show up in the MarketPlace.

Your number 2-  I answered your other post and it is due to your not doing it correctly.

I do agree with you on number 3-  those who have a great number of extensions find it cumbersome to find them with all  a lot of looking.  The search button in the header only searches the extensions within the entire MarketPlace, so that is useless in finding an extension to click on the get help to get to the update support.  A search for the purchases by name would be a great assist IMO.

Seems you aren't going about it correctly .

Step 1  log into your Marketplace account and find the extension you want to update. Click on the GET Help button

Step 2   That will take you to the Product Support Page  click on the Extend Support button.

Step 3   That will open the extension page and you will see the Extended Support for 12  month and the support price. 

Step 4  continue and it will add that item to your cart.

One of our clients is having some issues with the latest Stripe version 1.3.6 is installed in cart version 1.4.2.1
 

Using the Stripe connect the AbanteCart is managing payment methods for you and can only be managed from the extension settings.

Only the card setting is enable in the extension

However,  the payment shows both card and bank.  We have been unsuccessful in trying to have ONLY cards displayed.

Please refer to the images for clarity

We would prefer to have the link for the ability to save a card if customer desires to do so.
