Describe the bug
Stripe is now allowing Link to be displayed in the Payment Element. This means that, when the new checkout experience is enabled, Link will show as an option, regardless of whether or not Link is enabled as an express checkout option.
According to Stripe:
If you would like to turn it off, you can navigate to your Stripe Dashboard and within your payment methods settings, you will be able to turn off Link for your integration from within the Link section.
However, if an account is connected via OAuth, the merchant cannot manage their payment methods at https://dashboard.stripe.com/settings/link or https://dashboard.stripe.com/settings/payment_methods since they're controlled by the Stripe WooCommerce Extension.
This essentially means that merchants who onboard via OAuth are locked into offering Link by Stripe.
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Connect a Stripe account via OAuth.
- Enable the new checkout experience.
- Disable Stripe Link in the express checkouts settings.
- Attempt to purchase a product.
- Notice that Link is offered in the Payment Element.
Expected behavior
Either:
- Enabling/disabling the Link option in express checkouts will also prevent Link from rendering in the payment element.
- There is a separate option for enabling/disabling Link in the payment element.
