# Requirements for accepting co-badged cards

You may have received communications from Stripe regarding [EU regulation 2015/751](https://eur-lex.europa.eu/eli/reg/2015/751/oj). This regulation requires merchants to enable consumers to select a preferred card network when making a payment with a co-badged card. Please see our documentation for in depth information on how to update your integration, if applicable.
Requirements for your compliance with co-badged card regulations in Europe depend on the nature of your integration. Stripe-hosted UIs, such as Checkout and Payment Element, meet all the requirements outlined in our documentation. You can migrate to a Stripe-hosted UI to leverage these features. For other integrations, you are fully responsible for ensuring your integration complies with the regulation requirements.

Note that non-compliance with these rules can result in fines, penalties, and other actions from card networks, regulators, and Stripe beginning as early as September 2024, so it’s important to confirm that your account is compliant as soon as possible.
### Stripe connectors
[Stripe-owned connectors](https://docs.stripe.com/connectors) are compliant by default, however you will need to update to the latest plugin version.
