I see the '👀' emoji reacting to the recent post - is there any additional info we can provide to help identify the best solution?

hello! no, you'll want to do Separate Charges and Transfers

fathom hill
#

We're remitting insurance premium, and would definitely prefer to directly transfer funds to insurance entity (without it hitting our platform account) - is this possible?

hexed pilot
#

i think the key point here is that you want to transfer funds to more than a single party. If you just want to collect payment for a single party, using direct charges would work

#

Do we have to pay an additional 2.9% fee when we execute a transfer?

#

Or only 2.9% when collecting funds from cardholder?

hexed pilot
#

Stripe charges a fee when you collect payment from a cardholder. There's no fee for a Transfer

fathom hill
#

amazing - thanks for clarifying

#

do you know if there's any tax implications if ALL funds hit our platform account, before disbursement to corresponding connect accounts?

#

Rather than direct charge to connect account that is ultimately collecting funds

hexed pilot
#

unfortunately we can't really advise on tax, you'll need to talk to an expert about that

#

We'll speak with our accountant

#

We could create 3 direct charge payments (each for a different product_ID)

#

Rather than running a transfer

#

Have you seen that implemented before?

hexed pilot
#

you could, that would work too. From our perspective, you're essentially doing direct charges on different merchants. That's quite normal. As an example, if you were providing software as a service e.g. Shopify, they would charge to the merchant directly too

#

Is it possible to have 1 invoice that’s linked to 3 different connect accounts (under our single shared platform account)?

hexed pilot
#

linked in what way?
