In Custom Connected Accounts, which statement describes onboarding?

• A. The platform
• B. Stripe
• C. The platform manages onboarding
• D. The customer

Answer: (C)

In Custom Connected Accounts, the platform controls the onboarding process. The platform builds and drives the onboarding flow—collecting the connected account’s required information (business details, tax info, identity verification, bank details, etc.), and guiding the user through setup via the API and UI. Stripe provides the underlying verification and compliance checks, but the onboarding experience itself is owned by the platform. This setup lets platforms tailor the experience for their users, since the connected account holder doesn’t use a Stripe dashboard directly.
