As soon as you create a connected account through the API, it's a completely separate account. The only way for a connected account to be conected to multiple platforms is through the oauth flow (https://stripe.com/docs/connect/oauth-standard-accounts)

Questions re: Transfer + Manual Payout flow
Assume my platform has a positive Stripe balance and I want to issue a Transfer to a connected Account and then create a Payout on behalf of the connected Account (so that they receive the funds in their external account)
- Does my Transfer.create request need to specify a source_type? Or will a null source_type default to withdrawing the funds from the outstanding platform Stripe balance?
- Assuming the Transfer.create request is successful and the funds are coming from the platform's Stripe balance, should I be able to create the Payout immediately after? Or should I expect there to be a settlement time even in this circumstance?

source_typeisn't required when you create a Transfer. If you leave it out, it'll automatically pull from your available card balance
- If you're creating the transfer from available funds (and not using
source_transaction) then yes, you should be able to pay out the funds

Awesome.
Just to clarify: "available card balance" here would be my platform's Stripe balance (assuming it is sufficient)?

correct
