hello! can you provide slightly more context? What charge type for Connect are you using - destination charges / direct charges / separate charges and transfers?

graceful wharf Sep 23, 2022, 2:33 AM

#

transfers

#

this is a sample

#

#

I want to add our Fee to be reflected on that spot

#

when I do a transfer

#

to a destination connect account

#

any object I can set from here?

#

eager tartan Sep 23, 2022, 2:37 AM

#

that's not possible for a Transfer [0]

[0] https://stripe.com/docs/api/transfers/object

#

are you not collecting payments at all for your business model?

graceful wharf Sep 23, 2022, 2:37 AM

#

we are for standard

#

but when the customer pays to the platform not the standard/direct

#

we need to apply fee when we do the transfer as per my first screenshot

#

this is so the connect account will be able to know that the transfer has a fee which will be charged to the connect account

eager tartan Sep 23, 2022, 2:40 AM

#

to clarify, the customer pays the platform, then you do a transfer to the connected account right?

#

will you only transfer to one connected account?

graceful wharf Sep 23, 2022, 2:41 AM

#

eager tartan to clarify, the customer pays the platform, then you do a transfer to the connec...

yes correct

#

we do the transfer

#

"will you only transfer to one connected account?"

yes that would be 1 per connected account

eager tartan Sep 23, 2022, 2:45 AM

#

then you should look into using destination charges - https://stripe.com/docs/connect/destination-charges

#

and define an application_fee_amount when creating the PaymentIntent

#

this way, the corresponding py_ object on the connected account will show the fee

graceful wharf Sep 23, 2022, 2:47 AM

#

then it would not be a transfer object correct?

eager tartan Sep 23, 2022, 2:48 AM

#

a transfer will automatically be created

#

try it out

graceful wharf Sep 23, 2022, 2:48 AM

#

will it reflect from here?

#

eager tartan Sep 23, 2022, 2:48 AM

#

yes, the transfer will reflect on your platform account also

graceful wharf Sep 23, 2022, 2:49 AM

#

hmm ok let me test it out

#

just to clarify this is when we do transfer correct?

eager tartan Sep 23, 2022, 2:51 AM

#

when you create a payment, the transfer will automatically be done

graceful wharf Sep 23, 2022, 2:51 AM

#

this is the code we used for transfer

#

#

so just to clarify I will replace this with destination charges object?

eager tartan Sep 23, 2022, 2:54 AM

#

yes

#

but to be clear, the payment collection will be done using that PaymentIntent also

graceful wharf Sep 23, 2022, 2:54 AM

#

got it will test it out now

#

it did not went through

#

#

and it is recorded on the main payment

#

it should be on transfer

eager tartan Sep 23, 2022, 3:07 AM

#

the payment is incomplete, did you collect the payment method or pass in a payment method id?

graceful wharf Sep 23, 2022, 3:08 AM

#

can show me refference to that

eager tartan Sep 23, 2022, 3:08 AM

#

maybe can you paste the PaymentIntent id here too? let me take a look at it too

graceful wharf Sep 23, 2022, 3:14 AM

#

here it is

#

eager tartan Sep 23, 2022, 3:15 AM

#

the PaymentIntent id in your screenshot that starts with pi_

graceful wharf Sep 23, 2022, 3:15 AM

#

oh wait

eager tartan Sep 23, 2022, 3:15 AM

#

i can't copy the id from a screenshot, so if you can, please paste that id here

graceful wharf Sep 23, 2022, 3:16 AM

#

pi_3Ll2C5KhLpImRHOf126QoMpm

#

pi_3Ll2AnKhLpImRHOf1AhKnU5k

#

Im doing this on test mode

eager tartan Sep 23, 2022, 3:18 AM

#

when creating the PaymentIntent, include payment_method=pm_card_amex_threeDSecureNotSupported and confirm=true so that you can see how it works
https://stripe.com/docs/api/payment_intents/create#create_payment_intent-payment_method
https://stripe.com/docs/api/payment_intents/create#create_payment_intent-confirm

graceful wharf Sep 23, 2022, 3:28 AM

#

I set it to card

#

as noted here

#

im having an error

#

#

eager tartan Sep 23, 2022, 3:30 AM

#

did you include payment_method=pm_card_amex_threeDSecureNotSupported like i mentioned earlier?

graceful wharf Sep 23, 2022, 3:34 AM

#

testing now

eager tartan Sep 23, 2022, 4:08 AM

#

@graceful wharf what do you want to clarify about the transfer object?

graceful wharf Sep 23, 2022, 4:14 AM

#

hi

#

I created a transfer through this

#

#

it processed but the platform was charged again by stripe fee

#

while if using transfer object. there is no fee charged

#

can i use transfer and apply an application fee amount to that transfer?

eager tartan Sep 23, 2022, 4:17 AM

#

a transfer is essentially moving the funds. If you want to apply an application fee amount to that transfer, then you would just transfer less. There's no application_fee_amount parameter to apply to the Transfer object

If we're talking about showing the application fee on the corresponding payment object, then like what i said previously, you would want to use a destination charge instead.

graceful wharf Sep 23, 2022, 4:18 AM

#

but if we use destination charge, there would be a stripe fee correct?

eager tartan Sep 23, 2022, 4:18 AM

#

whenever you accept a payment from a customer, there would be a Stripe fee

#

you are accepting payments from customers on the platform right?

graceful wharf Sep 23, 2022, 4:19 AM

#

but its not a payment from the customer, its a transfer/payout to the connect account

eager tartan Sep 23, 2022, 4:19 AM

#

maybe lets clarify this first

#

where are the funds to transfer/payout to the connect account coming from?

graceful wharf Sep 23, 2022, 4:19 AM

#

from the platform

eager tartan Sep 23, 2022, 4:19 AM

#

and how is the platform getting that money?

graceful wharf Sep 23, 2022, 4:19 AM

#

through the customer purchasing

eager tartan Sep 23, 2022, 4:20 AM

#

alright, are you creating a PaymentIntent on the platform when the customer purchases something?

graceful wharf Sep 23, 2022, 4:22 AM

#

1.) Customer Pays

Item 1 = from connect account 1
Item 2 = from connect account 2
2.) Platform Receives the payment since those are 2 different accounts
3.) Platform does the transfer to the account 1 and 2
- Using transfer object = No Fees for transfer , but platform needs to charge them Platform Fee
- Using Payment Inten = Works but stripe has fees, platform also able to charge Platform Fee

eager tartan Sep 23, 2022, 4:23 AM

#

okay, so you need to transfer to 2 different connected accounts from a single payment

graceful wharf Sep 23, 2022, 4:24 AM

#

+yes

#

we already achieved that using transfer object but with no platform fee

#

if we just take away the platform fee. from the transfer it would not reflect on the connected account why the recieved is deducted

eager tartan Sep 23, 2022, 4:25 AM

#

then ignore whatever i said about destination charges. Using Separate Charges and Transfers is correct. If you as the platform want to charge them a platform fee, then simply transfer less

#

you can add metadata or a description on the corresponding py_ object

#

to indicate what's the platform fee

graceful wharf Sep 23, 2022, 4:26 AM

#

can you point me to that refference?

eager tartan Sep 23, 2022, 4:27 AM

#

https://stripe.com/docs/api/charges/update
https://stripe.com/docs/api/charges/update#update_charge-description
https://stripe.com/docs/api/charges/update#update_charge-metadata

#

after creating the transfer, the response destination_payment will contain the py_ object that you would update with the corresponding description and/or metadata

graceful wharf Sep 23, 2022, 4:31 AM

#

which is where for the fee?

eager tartan Sep 23, 2022, 4:32 AM

#

you would explicitly state how much the fee is that you're charging

#

none of this is automatic

#

it's not possible to display the fee on the Transfer object (i.e. the place where you've pointed out in this screenshot before) when using Separate Charges and Transfers

#

so the workaround here is for you to explicitly inform the user by passing in a String in the description , or key-value that mentions how much the application fee is in metadata of the py_ object

graceful wharf Sep 23, 2022, 4:36 AM

#

oh

#

ok let me test it out

#

so basicly deduct our fees from the transfer and update the description

eager tartan Sep 23, 2022, 4:37 AM

#

yes, that's right!

graceful wharf Sep 23, 2022, 4:37 AM

#

is there a way to define the description upon transfer?

eager tartan Sep 23, 2022, 4:37 AM

#

no, unfortunately not

graceful wharf Sep 23, 2022, 4:38 AM

#

aha ok got it. I will play around with what you have shown
