Hi there

#

Can you tell me which type of charge flow you are using?

#

Direct Charges, Destination Charges, Separate Charges & Transfers?

#

And are you using Subscriptions?

#

@acoustic heron Do you wanna jump in here

#

Hi @thorn gust I am 90% sure we are using direct charges with payment intents. We are not using subscriptions.

#

No, I am wrong. We are using destination payments

#

Okay so with destination charges you determine how much you transfer each time (or how much your app fee is). So really you control this here and you can just calculate the amount you want to keep in your platform each time.

#

So even in the example where an user might have a coupon that takes 100% off, and technically no stripe payment takes place from their side, we can still initiate a destination charge that pays the vendor the full amount?

#

And are we able to make it that vendor sees correct customer information?

thorn gust Sep 7, 2022, 4:50 PM

#

Ah okay so this is a bit different

#

Didn't realize you would be handling 100% off as well.

#

Are your Connected Accounts in the same country as your platform?

acoustic heron Sep 7, 2022, 4:59 PM

#

Yes

thorn gust Sep 7, 2022, 5:01 PM

#

Okay then in that case you would create a separate transfer (https://stripe.com/docs/api/transfers/create) instead of a destination charge here.

#

Since 100% off means there would be no charge at all.

#

But yes you can still transfer however much funds you desire from your platform to your Connected Account

#

What about 50% off discount? Can we make it so customer pays $50, but vendor receives his $100 without a separate transfer?

thorn gust Sep 7, 2022, 5:07 PM

#

No that's not possible.

#

The maximum you can transfer for a destination charge is the amount of the charge

#

So in those cases you would need a separate transfer as well.

Thank you, that's a huge help!
