Accounts v2

An Account v2 object represents a company, individual, or other entity that your Stripe integration interacts with. It contains both identifying information and properties that control its behavior and functionality. An Account can have one or more configurations that enable sets of related features, such as allowing it to act as a merchant or customer. The Accounts v2 API is broadly available to Connect platforms, and to other users in preview. The Accounts v2 API also supports the Global Payouts preview feature.
