Hello, I've created this coupon:
evt_1PIVar2eCkIhIZ06JYUDaYt8

And I would like to created on the connected account that I pass through the api on Create Coupons.
Is that possible ?
Can a coupon belong to an connected account ?

#

I cannot find my coupon on the connected account.

#

Hi there ๐Ÿ‘‹ that Coupon was created on a Connected Account, though that may not be recommended since you're working with Express accounts here. Can you elaborate on how you tried to find the Coupon after you created it, which wasn't successful?

#

I don't know how to find it on my dashboard

#

I supoosed that I had to use the connected account dashaboard

little fable
#

You won't find it on your dashboard, it doesn't exist in your account.

#

Then where can i find it ?

little fable
#

You might be able to see it if you view the dashboard as your Connected Account, but I'm not entirely certain on that since Express Connected Accounts don't get full dashboard access and we're not too familiar with the dashboard in this forum.

We primarily focus on helping developers work with our API, so I'd expect you to be able to find it if you listed the Coupons for your Connected Account via the api:
https://docs.stripe.com/api/coupons/list
https://docs.stripe.com/api/connected-accounts

One more question.

#

when I created a coupon through my api I pass the connected account id ...

#

Why is that not recomended ?

little fable
#

Because you're using Express Accounts, where we recommend using Destination Charges rather than Direct Charges:
https://docs.stripe.com/connect/destination-charges
With a Destination Charge structure, all payment activity happens on the Platform Account, so objects created on the Conneted Accounts can't be used as part of the payment process.

Create charges on your platform account, collect fees, and immediately transfer the remaining funds to your connected accounts.

#

I won't be able to use these coupons in products of my connected accounts ?

little fable
#

You wouldn't create Coupons or Products on the Connected Accounts, becasuse the objects you create to process the payments would be on your Platform account and won't be able to reference objects from different accounts.

next ridge
#

So, my coupons will be on my platforms account and they won't reach the products placed at my connected accounts ?

#

It that right ?

little fable
#

products placed at my connected accounts
If you're working with Express Connected Accounts, I would not recommend creating any objects on the Connected Accounts.

next ridge
#

Is late for that ๐Ÿคฃ

#

So, taking in cosideration my situation ... my coupons will be on my platforms account and they won't reach the products placed at my connected accounts ?

little fable
#

No, I don't know what you mean by "won't reach the products", but Coupons created on your Platform account cannot reference Products that belong to another account.

next ridge
#

I can create Coupons through my API aiming my connected account ? Right ?

#

Somehow I'm doing it in my integration and I'm able to apply the coupon on my checkoutsession. .. ๐Ÿค”

little fable
#

Then you're probably creating the Checkout Session on the Connected Account, using a Direct Charge flow. Hard to say without any details though.
