hi! what does "control their balance" mean?
Debit or Credit them
not sure about the dashboard but in the API you can make a Transfer to them or use Account Debits (e.g. https://stripe.com/docs/connect/account-debits)
I saw that in the dashboard (in test mode) I could "View dashboard as this account" and then refund a specific payment/client... Is this possible in production/regular mode?
are you using Direct or Destination charges?
I'm using Setup Intents
that doesn't answer the question
then refund a specific payment/client
what payment is that? is it a Direct Charge on the Express account's dashboard? Is it a "payment" as the result of a transfer from a Destination charges. I can't answer you without that information as it drastically changes how refunds work here
I create a PaymentIntent and confirm it via my backend calling Stripe's API to a "Setted Intent" that was created "within an Express Connect account" for the merchant
can you share an example PaymentIntent ID

ok that's a Destination charge
I saw that in the dashboard (in test mode) I could "View dashboard as this account" and then refund a specific payment/client... Is this possible in production/regular mode?
if you do that you are not refunding the customer. You are reversing the transfer from the Destination charge(sending the money from the connected account back to your platform). It doesn't interact with the end-customer at all.
you can do this in livemode too as far as I know(though you generally wouldn't once you're past a certain point of complexity, you should have some kind of user-dashboard for your employees to manage orders and issue refunds etc that can call our APIs.
