Hi! Let me help you with this.

Hello! Sounds good

You can use the transfer_group in payment_intent_data: https://stripe.com/docs/api/checkout/sessions/create#create_checkout_session-payment_intent_data-transfer_group

[marble burrow]

hmm, what should the transfer_group be?

is there any code snippet i can use?

from what i understand there are 4 main chunks

these 3 from here from here https://stripe.com/docs/connect/charges-transfers

and this section
from here
https://stripe.com/docs/checkout/quickstart

not too sure how i can combine them together since in the case of the await stripe.checkout.sessions.create({}) method, it will itself generate the price etc?

[subtle tundra]

For you case, instead of creating a PaymentIntent (1st step), you create a Checkout Session, with the transfer_group parameter. It can be any unique string. It's important that you use the same string for transfers.

[marble burrow]

so, I will create a checkout session, and then I will call the step 2 (stripe.transfer.create()) and step 3 (stripe.transfer.create()), with the same transfer group as the checkout session?

[subtle tundra]

Yes.

[marble burrow]

Hmmm, I see, so each time I need to generate a brand new transfer group?

[tawdry horizon]

Not necessarily as far as I know. Though also you can create those transfers without setting a transfer group and Stripe will create one for you

All you really need to do here is create a transfer and pass source_transaction='pi_12345' when creating the transfer like in this section https://stripe.com/docs/connect/charges-transfers#transfer-availability
