Hi, what do you mean by 'transfer' and is 'another account' the Platform account or another Custom Connect Account?

grim spindle Feb 18, 2023, 12:44 AM

#

@unique gull One Custom account to another custom account

#

Like one accont balance to another account balance

No, this is not possible. A work around would be that the Platform uses account debits, https://stripe.com/docs/connect/account-debits for Custom Connect account 1. Then, later transfers this fund to Custom Connect account 2, https://stripe.com/docs/api/transfers/create .

@unique gull I can create a charge from Account 1. But, it is not returning the id like the "ch_xxx" format. If I use the source as a stripe account, then the id is like "py_xx", which I can not use as "source_transaction" while creating a transfer.

I'd highly recommend that you test in your test environment so ensure that this is what you're looking for.

If I could then it would be awesome.

#

The API call returns the Payment created on the platform account (note: it does not return a Charge) so it's an expected behavior: https://stripe.com/docs/connect/account-debits

#

So, how I can move funds from account 1 to account 2?

unique gull Feb 18, 2023, 12:55 AM

#

You can't directly. What from the above work around is not clear?

#

@unique gull Suppose Account 1 has available balance 100 USD, and he wants to send the funds to another user account 2, amount 10 USD.

How can I do that?

I don't need to send directly. But, I need a way that could.

1/ Platform uses account debits, https://stripe.com/docs/connect/account-debits for Custom Connect account 1.
2/ Platform created a transfer to Custom Connect account 2, https://stripe.com/docs/api/transfers/create

Have you tried this? Is it not working?

It is only possible when the Stripe Owner Platform account has sufficient balance. Otherwise not
