Add support for Stripe Identity

[rlee1990]

Will this support more of stripes futures such as identity? Stripe already supports this for mobile. It would be nice to see more of Stripes features supported instead of having to send it to a browser or other workarounds.

We are dependent on the implementation of the official stripe react native sdk to implement the native bindings. Once that is done we will implement it.

Okay cool.

Hi. Any update on this? Or an ETA? Looking at ways to implement identity verification in my app. Would rather wait for this if it's close to being implemented.

I'm don't fully understand how you guys are using the React SDK so apologies if this is missing the mark but it looks like they have support for Identity now - https://stripe.com/docs/identity/verify-identity-documents?platform=react-native

@leidig54 As a workaround I use webhooks and server functions to use the link option.

Do you mean using the VerificationSession API from the "No Code" section? I'll take a look.

Would be great to get a native implementation if possible down the line for the best UX.

@leidig54 Yes that's what we are using as a workaround until a native solution

@remonh87 Have you looked into this recently? As mentioned previously, Stripe has documentation for Identity using a React SDK. We are looking to integrate Stripe Identity into an app we are building now but our Flutter developer has suggested using the web SDK instead.

Will Stripe Identity support flutter any time soon?

[remonh87]

I will take a look next month see what can be done. Btw I am not working for Stripe so it will best effort, no guarantees.

Hi @remonh87 any new updates on this?

Me and @jonasbark are the only maintainers of this library at the moment and do this in our free time (besides having both our own companies). Stripe is a huge sdk and it cost us a lot of time maintaining this sdk on 3 platforms, so we do not want to add an extra maintenance burden. We encourage the community to implement an sdk for this and we are happy to provide some help.
