Stripe Card and ACH Represenations

My client is using Stripe for payments via a gravity form and is also migrating subscriptions from a previous provider. In that process they encountered these questions. Can anyone tell me what Stripe Card Representation and ACH Representation Gravity Form is set up for?

What Stripe Card representation do you want to import your card data into?

When deciding on your card representation, you should check with any third-party services you use for their preferred card type and consider what you currently use in Stripe. If you use src_ in your current Stripe setup, we recommend updating to the Payment Intents API, which offers a broader feature set. The Payment Intents API is the unifying API for all Stripe products and payment methods and is compatible with both card_ and pm_ types.

  • Payment Methods (pm_)
  • Cards (card_)
  • Sources (src_)

What Stripe ACH representation do you want to import your ACH data into?

When deciding on your ACH representation, you should check with any third-party services you use for their preferred ACH type and consider what you currently use in Stripe. If using the Payment Intents API, we recommend importing pm_ objects. You are required to hold mandates for the bank accounts being imported.

  • Bank Accounts (ba_)
