Hi there

#

Yep you need to use the Connected Account header: https://stripe.com/docs/connect/authentication

#

So you create the Customer and Payment on the Connected Account just like you are creating the Token there

#

Yea but I want this customer on the developer account for other users to use.

Hi. You may want to look into this flow then: https://stripe.com/docs/connect/cloning-customers-across-accounts

Clone customers across accounts

With Connect, you can clone your customers' payment information across multiple connected accounts for reuse.

#

I am doing that

#

But only when saving a card

#

NOT making a payment for a connected account

#

then saving

#

That is done on my Account page, by saving a card for an Account

#

Then I do the clone stuff when already saved

#

However, Id like to do a Save Billing option on the Payment page too at the same time

#

Square has a way to do this that is why I am a little taken back

#

Ah so the issue is you create objects on the connect account first, but you want to move them to the platform account?

kindred root Dec 16, 2022, 9:03 PM

#

I mean that is how Stripe does it, however I dont see how I can move them to platform account

#

If I save on connect account, that doesnt help with another seller account wanting to use that same card

#

That is why I need on platform account, but doing this through making a payment

#

However that token generated on the client, doesnt work with my platform account

#

Cause the JS is using the connected account keys

#

My account page I use my accoutn keys, since its global

#

Yeah there's not a way to copy from connect account to platform. It sounds like destination charges are a better fit for your use case though since all payment data lives on the platform in that case and you can still charge to connect accounts: https://stripe.com/docs/connect/destination-charges

Creating destination charges on your platform

With Connect, you can create charges on your platform account, take fees, and then transfer remaining funds to your connected accounts.

kindred root Dec 16, 2022, 9:06 PM

#

I am doing that option on our EventStore

#

Let me see if the save billing works on there instead of our single form

#

We are using the charge service with application fee

#

Does the same thing

#

I think Destination Charges will work better for you since there's no need for any cloning. Payments work by settling funds on platform account then a transfer to the connect account is automatically initiated. There are caveats though. Destination charges are only recommended for custom and express accounts.

#

So I cant create a payment method in a connected account and clone that to the platform account?

surreal heart Dec 16, 2022, 9:27 PM

Correct
