Is there a way to connect to Stripe using API versus Connect

I can’t see the option, It only shows the sign in option, I just want to use the API keys to connect to stripe. The idea is to charge customer using our CRM that connects to Zapier, that then connects to Stripe via API.

Having issues with Connect on our CRM, it just keeps making new sub accounts and redoing verification. API works fine, just need to make it work.
