Hello hanzo
If I did the above would the saved payment method be available when the customer was going to do transactions with another seller account?
This doc would suggest that I will have to clone the customer for each connected account, is this true?

I'm not really keen on cloning the customer for every connected account they transact with because then if they add a card to one connected account after they've been cloned it would theoretically not show up when they trasact with a different seller.

seems like you're creating direct charges. In that flow, you'd need the payment method that you're trying to charge to live on the connected account.
So yeah, cloning would be the only option here.
I'm assuming you're using direct charges with Standard accounts?

Yes, using standard accounts. Will the saved payment methods show up in the payment element for the user to select or will we have to setup some ui prior to payment collection and allow them to select a saved payment element, then create the payment intent with the selected payment method?
wheat valve
Right, It won't show up on the payment element automatically, no. You'd need to create the UI to handle that flow.

My mistake in wording, I understand I have to render the payment element, but what I'm asking is will the payment element handle displaying saved cards and allow the user to select them or will we have to setup the ui to display the saved cards and allow the user to select from them?

Payment Element won't handle displaying saved cards. You'll need to build that yourself
