If the other account is connected to your account you can use the Transfers API to transfer funds.

#

https://stripe.com/docs/api/transfers

Stripe API reference – Transfers – curl

Complete reference documentation for the Stripe API. Includes code snippets and examples for our Python, Java, PHP, Node.js, Go, Ruby, and .NET libraries.

My use case would be the following

On a specific action -> transfer X amount of funds to an account

#

if an account is not connected, how would i go about creating it etc?

#

iirc the customer has to create an account if one does not exist

#

Currently you can only send funds via Stripe to other Stripe accounts that you are connected to

#

It's not intended to be a way for you to pay other people, although there are features in planning for that.

#

I understand but appears to be the best way to attempt to do that type of flow right now on Stripe

#

If I dont have an account id how would u recommend me go about obtaining/redirecting a customer to create one?

Currently, you would need to onboard that individual as a Connect Account: https://stripe.com/docs/connect/accounts

Thank you for the clarifications. I'm going to look into it further.

It sounds fairly simple to do 🙂

It can be but I would read through very carefully. Connect is designed to allow for complex, multi-party payments and business models.

#

Yeah i gotcha, I've seen the use case that I'm currently planning on multiple diff platforms

#

Hopefully Stripe have something specifically for this use purpose very soon though

Yeah I just always caution people to review all the docs since initial configurations made for one use-case can have downstream consequences when attempting to shoe-horn in new use cases.
