Heads up, another broken link. On this page: https://stripe.com/docs/connect/connecting-to-accounts#manag... There's a link to learn more about managed accounts: https://stripe.com/docs/connect/managed-accounts Which just shows "An unexpected error occurred" http://cl.ly/image/3V2k333n0d32

You have two options: you can have sellers link a Stripe account (and we'll do all the downstream work, like collecting their bank account info and verifying their identity). Or you can create a managed account via API, where the seller does everything from within your app and never needs to go to Stripe.
Earlier quoted context omitted.

Stripe's product is for developers. I highly doubt there are developers using IE9. It's an audience Stripe can comfortably choose to ignore.
