This is useless to anyone who would like to use their own existing Stripe account for payments. It force-creates a StripeExpress account, which cannot be managed through Stripe directly. It cannot be deleted on the Stripe side if you want to move away from it at any point. It is permanently bound to WooCommerce, requires WooCommerce support to delete it, and overall makes Stripe inflexible. No idea why WooCommerce thought this was a good idea. It wasn’t. Hi there! Thank you for your feedback. The integration with StripeExpress is designed to simplify the setup process for users who prefer an all-in-one solution with WooCommerce. However, if you prefer to use your existing Stripe account, we recommend using our dedicated WooCommerce Stripe Payment Gateway , which allows for direct connection with existing Stripe accounts. If you have any questions or need further assistance, please feel free to reach out.
