Account

This is an object representing a Stripe account. You can retrieve it to see
properties on the account like its current requirements or if the account is
enabled to make live charges or receive payouts.

For accounts where [controller.requirement_collection](https://docs.stripe.com/api/accounts/object#account_object-controller-requirement_collection)
is `application`, which includes Custom accounts, the properties below are always
returned.

For accounts where [controller.requirement_collection](https://docs.stripe.com/api/accounts/object#account_object-controller-requirement_collection)
is `stripe`, which includes Standard and Express accounts, some properties are only returned
until you create an [Account Link](https://docs.stripe.com/api/account_links) or [Account Session](https://docs.stripe.com/api/account_sessions)
to start Connect Onboarding. Learn about the [differences between accounts](https://stripe.com/connect/accounts).

# `create`

```elixir
@spec create(Stripe.Client.t(), map(), keyword()) ::
  {:ok, term()} | {:error, Stripe.Error.t()}
```

With [Connect](https://docs.stripe.com/docs/connect), you can create Stripe accounts for your users.
To do this, you’ll first need to [register your platform](https://dashboard.stripe.com/account/applications/settings).

If you’ve already collected information for your connected accounts, you [can prefill that information](https://docs.stripe.com/docs/connect/best-practices#onboarding) when
creating the account. Connect Onboarding won’t ask for the prefilled information during account onboarding.
You can prefill any information on the account.

# `delete`

```elixir
@spec delete(Stripe.Client.t(), String.t(), map(), keyword()) ::
  {:ok, term()} | {:error, Stripe.Error.t()}
```

Delete an account

With [Connect](https://stripe.com/connect), you can delete accounts you manage.

Test-mode accounts can be deleted at any time.

Live-mode accounts that have access to the standard dashboard and Stripe is responsible for negative account balances cannot be deleted, which includes Standard accounts. All other Live-mode accounts, can be deleted when all [balances](https://docs.stripe.com/api/balance/balance_object) are zero.

If you want to delete your own account, use the [account information tab in your account settings](https://dashboard.stripe.com/settings/account) instead.

# `list`

```elixir
@spec list(Stripe.Client.t(), map(), keyword()) ::
  {:ok, term()} | {:error, Stripe.Error.t()}
```

List all connected accounts

Returns a list of accounts connected to your platform via [Connect](https://docs.stripe.com/docs/connect). If you’re not a platform, the list is empty.

# `reject`

```elixir
@spec reject(Stripe.Client.t(), String.t(), map(), keyword()) ::
  {:ok, term()} | {:error, Stripe.Error.t()}
```

Reject an account

With [Connect](https://stripe.com/connect), you can reject accounts that you have flagged as suspicious.

Only accounts where your platform is liable for negative account balances, which includes Custom and Express accounts, can be rejected. Test-mode accounts can be rejected at any time. Live-mode accounts can only be rejected after all balances are zero.

# `retrieve`

```elixir
@spec retrieve(Stripe.Client.t(), map(), keyword()) ::
  {:ok, term()} | {:error, Stripe.Error.t()}
```

```

Update an account

Updates a [connected account](https://stripe.com/connect/accounts) by setting the values of the parameters passed. Any parameters not provided are
left unchanged.

For accounts where [controller.requirement_collection](https://docs.stripe.com/api/accounts/object#account_object-controller-requirement_collection)
is `application`, which includes Custom accounts, you can update any information on the account.

For accounts where [controller.requirement_collection](https://docs.stripe.com/api/accounts/object#account_object-controller-requirement_collection)
is `stripe`, which includes Standard and Express accounts, you can update all information until you create
an [Account Link](https://docs.stripe.com/api/account_links) or [Account Session](https://docs.stripe.com/api/account_sessions) to start Connect onboarding,
after which some properties can no longer be updated.

To update your own account, use the [Dashboard](https://dashboard.stripe.com/settings/account). Refer to our
[Connect](https://docs.stripe.com/docs/connect/updating-accounts) documentation to learn more about updating accounts.
