Destination charges are created on platform, so platform is responsible for stripe fee. This is the expected behaviour.

You can consider charging a higher application fee to cover the stripe fee.
lapis drift
please check this image and in here platform fee and stripe fee is being charged seperately. this screenshot is from payment of our competitors platform
this one is from our platform, here it just has platform fee
how can i charge platform fee and stripe fee seperately?
please guide
these both screenshot are from customer account
i want that my customer should also be charged as the first screenshot charges, two fees seperately
vernal flame
Can you share with me the IDs of these two paymentIntents?
lapis drift
yes sure please wait
this one is for ko-fi payment
"id": "ch_3PTx6LHIfTQUSBVX0x9JNT4K"
"payment_intent": "pi_3PTx6LHIfTQUSBVX0Q3eiUid"
and for our platform it shows this
it does not show on my customer account however i did find it on platform account
id": "cs_live_a1s9h2hu3Pi5A8IaPUQkEjO38FDO1XDIOdUDHnF7TyciZrIw460wTIjX2l
payment_intent": "pi_3PRwyOGuORJUccAU0v8Zp0mS"
vernal flame
Ok, pi_3PTx6LHIfTQUSBVX0Q3eiUid is a direct charge (https://docs.stripe.com/connect/direct-charges), and why the connected account is responsible for the stripe fee.
lapis drift
and what about this pi_3PRwyOGuORJUccAU0v8Zp0mS?
vernal flame
pi_3PRwyOGuORJUccAU0v8Zp0mS is a destination charge, and platform is responsbile for stripe fee
lapis drift
can you guide me how to create a direct charge using .net or maybe guide me to a link or something?
vernal flame
You can refer to the link that I shared earlier,
lapis drift
can we use direct charges on express account?
vernal flame
It's not recommended, you should use destination charges for express accounts.
lapis drift
but if we still want to use it can we use it?
vernal flame
I'm strongly against it. Express account doesn't have full Dashboard access, so they aren't able to handle disputes as standard account do.
lapis drift
how can we check if our platform account is standard or express?
vernal flame
A platform is a standard account
lapis drift
so our account whose keys we are using is standard account?
and we can use direct charges?
right?
vernal flame
It depends on the type of the connected account.
To summarize
- If the connected account is a standard account, use direct charge
- If the connected account is a express/custom account, use destination charge
lapis drift
do i implement a check in my code for that?
vernal flame
are you asking how to retrieve the type of an account ?https://docs.stripe.com/api/accounts/object#account_object-type
lapis drift
hello i have a question. on our platform the creators connect their stripe account with our platform so they are connected account and supporters just click on fund and ther are redirected to checkou page so to charge a direc t charge on supporter i think we need their stripe account id, right? but in our case we just get customer id
vernal flame
Are you asking how to retrieve the account ID of a connected account?
lapis drift
no i'm asking that to charge a direct charge to our supporters who fund the creators, supporters should also be a connected account?
vernal flame
is the supporter the payee or payer?
lapis drift
payer
vernal flame
Then no, they don't need to be a connected account.
