👋 happy to help
wary mantle
connected account has this amount
this is from the main account
not sure what am I doing wrong here
deep relic
const applicationFeePercent = 0.25;
const applicationFee = Math.round((subtotal * applicationFeePercent) / 100);
you're taking 0.25 % as an application fee?
wary mantle
yes
deep relic
so basically you're charging 11.8$ and taking a ~0.03 cents?
wary mantle
correct
deep relic
would you mind sharing the request ID? https://support.stripe.com/questions/finding-the-id-for-an-api-request
deep relic
you're not doing anything wrong
what you're seeing is normal
this is how Destination Charges work
wary mantle
in that case total balance is showing in negative so is that correct too?
As per the amount I feel live we are sending more amount than what we are collecting
deep relic
yes because you are paying the Stripe fees
please look at the flow of funds diagram here
wary mantle
is there a direct way to pass that fees to connected account?
deep relic
in that way you can get the Stripe Fee from the balance transaction
and subtract it from the transfer amount
wary mantle
does this support checkout session?
there is another use case where if there is international card used the stripe fees calculation changes and it will affect this total
in checkout session we may not directly know if they will use such cards
deep relic
does this support checkout session?
yes, you would do the Checkout Session normally as if you were creating it on your own Platform
and then use the charge from that Checkout Session (session.payment_intent.latest_charge) to pass in the source_transaction as explained here https://stripe.com/docs/connect/charges-transfers#transfer-availability
wary mantle
okay, is there a demo app for this which I can take reference and implement in our system?
deep relic
I'm not sure but you don't have a lot to change honestly from what you're doing
basically what you need to do is just to create the Checkout Session
you could also leverage the tax_rates, so you don't have to calculate it yourself
in Checkout Session you can use automatic_tax which will do the calculation for you
wary mantle
so as far as I understand, I can create normal checkout session and after that I create a transfer to collect stripe fees from connected account
