hi, not really understanding sorry. An application fee is taken from a payment between an end-customer and a connected account, and goes to just the one platform that's involved.

So is there a hook event that we can call when the fee is received on our end?

[timid terrace]

it's instantaneous, so not sure you need a webhook

not really sure what you mean sorry, I'd need to look at some actual code you're writing or more technical context

[fickle sedge]

Understood. But, when we receive that fee, we want to have it split between a primary account and secondary account. So if we received $0.30 fee, we want a certain percentage to then transfer to the secondary account as we want to have two fee accounts

[timid terrace]

ok, well that is not natively supported really.

is the secondary account also a connected account of your platform, or could you make it be one?

[fickle sedge]

My thinking was it would just be a secondary platform account, but we could make it a connected account if this would make it easier programmatically

[timid terrace]

well it's only possible to transfer from a platform account to a connected account, that is the only possibility.

other than paying the money out to your bank account and then doing the money movement outside of Stripe entirely, which is also an option

if the secondary account is a connected account, then if you have your platform on manual payouts so it accumulates a balance, and the other account is in the same region as you(due to cross-border money movement restrictions) and some other things, then you could use the /v1/transfers API to send some arbitrary amount to it(that you calculate as being some fraction of an incoming application fee you got on a separate transaction).
