Different payment account

    Hi there! Hope everyone is safe and well during such trying times.

    I have a woocommerce site with Stripe payment processor. I’m wondering if woocommerce can choose different payment account depending on the States field user select at check out.

    For example:
    – Customer select California in states drop down, then when making payment it will be transacted to my California’s payment account. If they select New York in states drop down, when they make payment it will be paid to my New York’s payment account.

    Is this something possible? I am open to using other payment processors as long I can do this. Thank you!

    Hi there,

    Thanks for reaching out.

    I understand you are looking to set up more than one Stripe account and have funds distributed to either account based off of the customer’s location. You have also mentioned that you’d be willing to use other payment gateways to accomplish this.

    Currently, it’s not possible to connect more than one Stripe account to a single store. Having multiple payment processors would not work as an option either, since you cannot control which gateway a customer will use, and the funds can’t be captured by one gateway yet sent to the other.

    This might be possible with custom code, allowing you to connect more than one Stripe account to a single store and then distributing funds based off of the customer location. I would recommend reaching out to the following paid services for help with this project: https://woocommerce.com/customizations/

    I hope this helps!

    Hey there Lacey,

    Thank you so much for your reply and advise, I appreciate it!

    Actually I’m using a local payment processor (eGHL from Malaysia) but didn’t state it initially as most people wouldn’t know it. Does which payment processor matter in this case or this customization is mostly on woocommerce check out side?

    To further elaborate, in each state of the country I have a franchisee. So what I would like is that if a customer select a particular state, that state’s franchisee will handle the order as well as having the payment sent to their payment processor’s account.

    Currently all payments goes into 1 account and every 2 weeks we need to redistribute the funds to each franchisee which is a major hassle accounting wise.

    Certainly willing to pay for customizations, just want to know if this can be done technically. I wouldn’t want to get sweet talk by a developer/company and at the end couldn’t be done.

    What do you think?

    Howdy,

    I definitely understand the potential concerns here. I would hate to redirect you to customizations support as well and find out that it cannot be done or at least done the way you intended.

    It’s actually hard for me to say exactly what is possible with the payment gateway you are using, as it’s a third-party plugin with code I’m not familiar with. I would recommend submitting the inquiry with one of the WooExperts or Codeable, and they should at least be able to tell you whether or not this would be passible from a developer’s perspective and should provide a quote for the job before you actually need to commit to anything.

    I’m sorry I couldn’t definitively answer, but I hope this ends up working out for you!
