but I can’t see the connection here!
There is no direct connection actually, you can use metadata to keep tracking the link between the Connect Account object and the Customer Object

Is the customer id == connected account id?
No, just imagine two different objects that represent the same person/entity

I see so they are completely independent, thanks a lot MR os4m37

https://stripe.com/docs/connect/subscriptions?locale=en#create-a-subscription-for-the-connected-account

but here it says The Customer object involved in the transaction represents the connected account, not the end customer

how do you translate this in your understanding?

[open olive]

You consider the Connected Account as an end customer to your platform account.

What is blocking you from creating a Customer object that represent one of your Connect Account ?

[golden saddle]

Exactly, this is the question how do I do it? please tell me, I'm new to Stripe

[open olive]

You simply create a new Customer object

For that Connect Account

[golden saddle]

aha

the thing is in my business model the user have to create a connected account using the onboarding process (it will represent a restaurant let say) and they will subscribe to my app afterwards

so I want the connected account to be billed in this case

so here as you say I just create a customer object on that connected account

thanks Mr os4m37

Not on that Connected Account

You create a Customer on your PLatform Account

that' will map to your connected Account

There is no direct link between these two objects

You can keep track of this link using metadata

I see

that was exactly what I want to be sure about, thanks a lot Mr os4m37
