Stripe integration in ineligible countries

Hello everyone,

As we all know Stripe has a limited number of countries where sellers can receive money and sell their services. My work around for that is for any sellers on my platform that do not have a bank account in the eligible countries to be given the choice to select my default bank account at the time they sign up. Because my bank account is in an eligible country they will now be able to accept bookings. And for the users that have bank account in the eligible countries, they will proceed as usual.

My question is can anybody point me to the documentation in stripe that can allow me to customize that please? Or anybody that has had experience with that? That would be of great help!

We implemented a similar solution a couple of years ago.
It’s the post processing that can be a challenge, as well as refunds and partial refunds tracking. Also there are challenges transferring from the default account to the seller account for certain countries. There are also Stripe policy limitations on holding funds as an intermediary.
You can ping me for details at arvindcr@gmail.com. Happy coding!
