i susupected it

Then maybe you can help me understand better this use case and how may I support it, because probably i'm approaching it wrong.

For context, we are building a platform for gyms. So all our connected accounts are gyms and the customer are practitioners of such gyms. We want to allow cross-gym purchases.

There are 3 scenarios we want to support:

Scenario 1
Customer NOT present in Connected Account (Without Payment Method in PLATFORM account)

Scenario 2
Customer NOT present in Connected Account (With Payment Method in PLATFORM account)

Scenario 3
Customer already present in Connected Account (Complete)

Really the only solution is to collect card details in the platform first, no other way around it

The problem is with Scenario 1

There is a way to attach a payment method all in the server? (i mean without using setup intents)

because one idea, was in the same call the first time a customer purchase anything:

1. attach payment method in the platform
2. clone the customer and the payment method in the connected account
3. create a payment intent on behalf of the connected account
4. return the client secret to the frontend and confirm the payment

Use SetupIntent, collect card details on the platform first. Then clone and use it

Okay I see, from the customer's prospetive the UX is a bit worse as they will need 2 steps instead of one to purchase their first membership

but if truly there are no way around it, than it will be it

yep
