@robust iris yeah that seems to make sense
robust iris
How do I start this process and can I use a combination of the two products?
thorny sigil
we have lots of docs for this but it depends on many factors. You have a lot of high level decisions to make, like which type of connected accounts and funds flows are you going for: https://stripe.com/docs/connect/accounts
but you can read https://stripe.com/docs/connect/subscriptions too

Ah I missed key piece of info, all payments go to the platform host, (us)
thorny sigil
Okay but then why do you think you need Connect?
robust iris
Maybe connect isn't the right product then, if all payments are going to us. I just saw connect as being labelled as "platform". Now it makes snese that this wouldn't fit the use case.
What would the product be then?
thorny sigil
I don't fully grasp what you say sorry
If people are simply paying you, the business, then you would not use Connect
And you use Billing if you charge recurring payments.
robust iris
Yes so going by the use case I said before, onboarding fee (that's held), pay per meeting occurrence and subscription, all payments going to us what would the right product be?
thorny sigil
Billing for recurring payments, and normal payments for one-time payments (no specific product name)
robust iris
Okay thankyou
