Hi, can you share the request id where you're trying to create this account? Here's how you can find a request ID: https://support.stripe.com/questions/finding-the-id-for-an-api-request

Taking a look
The reason why you're seeing this error is because the Account Create API defualts to 'full' Dashboard access: https://docs.stripe.com/api/accounts/create#create_account-controller-stripe_dashboard-type. You cannot use controller.fees.payer: "application" when using full access Dashboard. You would need to pass the other values to work on this request.
lucid gazelle
so is the way that I have this configured not applicable then? Because this is saying I want full Stripe Access Dashboard and for my platform to get charged the stripe fees?
which seems like is the issue because I cannot use the full access dashboard with the application fee paying option?
edgy hull
Yes, with Direct charges the Connected Accounts would pay the Stripe fees.

So I have to pick one of these two options
- Express Account
- Either Destination/Separate Charges and transfers
- my Platform Pays Stripe Fees
- Platform is liable for a negative balance
- Full Stripe Account
- Direct Charges
- my Connected Accounts Pays for Stripe Fees
- Strip[e is liable for a negative balance in connected accounts
The only way for my platform to cover the srtipe fees is through the express account?
Is there any way to use option 1 but Stripe is liable for the negative balance in connected accounts?
edgy hull
Let me test some things, hang tight
lucid gazelle
no rush, I appreciate the help!
My ideal scenarios would be (best case to worst case)
option 1
Express Account
Platofmr Pays for Stripe Fees
Separate Charges and Transfers
Stripe is Responsible for Negative Balances
option 2
Express Account
Platform Pays For Stripe Fees
Direct Charges
Stripe is Responsible for negative balances
option 3
Express Account
Platform Pays for Stripe Fees
Direct Charges or Seperate Charges
Platform is Responsible for Neg Balances

Yeah, upon testing these what you're looking is not possible. Wtih dashboard type of express, the Connect application/ Platform must control losses.
If you use Direct charges, the connected accounts would pay for the fees.
You could charge application fees on the payment with Direct Charges
