I wanted to use Destination charges https://stripe.com/docs/connect/destination-charges. I'm wondering if I'll be able to hold the funds in the platform account while waiting for the client to confirm that he's been served so that we can proceed to seller payment

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.

Hi @fading brook

#

in that case you need to use separate Charges and Transfers

#

https://stripe.com/docs/connect/separate-charges-and-transfers

Creating separate charges and transfers

Learn how to use Connect to create charges on your platform account on behalf of connected accounts, perform transfers separately, and retain funds in the process.

#

Ohh thank you

#

And do you have some samples I can use to integrate quickly ?

#

What are the steps to integrate with seperate charges and transfers ?

fading brook Jun 21, 2023, 8:54 AM

#

it's all explained in the link I shared

static basin Jun 21, 2023, 9:05 AM

#

I don't understand this part. In my case, the money will be sent to only one seller. Here there are two conntect accounts involved in the transaction

#

How can I get the expected feature by following this guide ?

fading brook Jun 21, 2023, 9:11 AM

#

you don't need to send to multiple sellers

#

it's just an example to show that you can create multiple transfers

#

but you don't have to if you don't need to

static basin Jun 21, 2023, 9:14 AM

#

By doing so ?

fading brook Jun 21, 2023, 9:14 AM

#

you can just create one transfer

#

instead of two

#

How do I hold funds on the platform while waiting for use to confirm that he's been served ?

#

you don't create the transfer

#

once you want to move the funds to the connected account

#

then you create the transfer

static basin Jun 21, 2023, 9:16 AM

#

I'm using booking.id as transfer group because it's the main relationship between users and sellers

#

Now when user confirms payment, Can I use it to fetch the details about the stripe payment and then send the money to the seller ?

#

sorry I need to step away, my colleague will be with you shortly

#

Hi! I'm taking over from my colleague. Please, give me a moment to catch up.

Hi @graceful pike. Thanks for joining

Now when user confirms payment, Can I use it to fetch the details about the stripe payment and then send the money to the seller ?
Can you use the PaymentIntent ID instead?

So I'll need to save the payment intend id in my db using the webhook ?

graceful pike Jun 21, 2023, 9:34 AM

#

Maybe you can search via transfer_group, let me check.

#

No, unfortunately only these fields are supported for search: https://stripe.com/docs/search#query-fields-for-payment-intents

#

But you can also put it in metadata then!

#

And then search by metadata["booking_id"]:"value"

static basin Jun 21, 2023, 9:36 AM

#

graceful pike And then search by `metadata["booking_id"]:"value"`

Yeah that's what I'm doing

#

Let me share the steps I need for the project so that I get the most from your assistance @graceful pike

User books a service, we associate the payment intent with booking id in the meta data as well as the transfer_group identifier
Then seller is notified using the webhook for payment intend succeeded
When seller confirms a service completion, user is contacted to confirm that he's been served or ask for a refund
If user confirms, we create a transfer on behalf of seller connected account
Finally if user wants to be refunded, the admin takes care of the situation by discussing with both parties, then he can whether confirm the seller payment or refund the client.

Could youl help me with step by step insights to achieve that logic ?

graceful pike Jun 21, 2023, 9:45 AM

#

This looks like a common flow. What exact parts are you having doubts about?

static basin Jun 21, 2023, 9:46 AM

#

When user has to confirm a service as completed

#

or ask for a refund

graceful pike Jun 21, 2023, 9:48 AM

#

Then you query the PaymentIntent by metadata and refund it: https://stripe.com/docs/api/refunds/create

#

Or, create a transfer to your Connected Account: https://stripe.com/docs/connect/separate-charges-and-transfers

#

That's great thanks! I'm now getting a clear vision
