For separate charges and transfers, which condition must be met for availability?

• A. They must be located in the same country
• B. They must be located in the same currency
• C. They must be located in the same time zone
• D. They must be enabled by Stripe in the dashboard

Answer: (A)

When using Stripe Connect, the separate charges and transfers flow is restricted by geography. Availability requires that both the platform and the connected account be in the same country. This is because payout rails, regulatory requirements (like KYC and tax reporting), and banking arrangements are organized per country, and Stripe can guarantee compliance and smooth settlement only within a single jurisdiction. If the platform and connected account were in different countries, cross-border handling would introduce complexities Stripe doesn’t support for this flow. Currency differences or time zones aren’t the gating factor here, and this feature isn’t determined by a dashboard toggle.
