hi there!
Support says that I need ask my client to create a new connected account of type custom.
that's correct
How would I migrate existing subscriptions from an express old connected account to a new custom one?
there is some information about this here: https://docs.stripe.com/billing/subscriptions/migrate-subscriptions

cool ! Maybe there is also a way to migrate a payment history ? 🙏

what do you mean by "payment history"?
rare river
list of transactions for the account. All the received payment with money amount and dates

no that's not possible. but you could store that info on your own database, or on the customer's metadata maybe.

last question, while migrating subscriptions from one connected account to another, I will be able to migrate payment methods as well. So, would customers be charged for a new subscription as well as they were for the old one?

I'm not sure what that means. once the Subscription are migrated, then customer will be charged on the new connected account

My platform has connected accounts, and these connected accounts have customers who buy subscriptions from them. We'd like to change the type of connected accounts. But do not want them to lose subscriptions of their customers. So if we after creating new connected accounts migrate all their customers' subscriptions will these subscriptions be running just like nothing has happened? Or customers of these connected accounts will need to, let's say, provide credit card info again?

yes, that's the whole point of doing a migration.

Ok one more question not related to the issue. I have created a connected account with prop controller: {
fees: { payer: 'application' },
losses: { payments: 'application' },
},
If the payer of the fees is set to application, does that meen that all the charges now are destination charges (go through application account)? Or it still may be direct charges ?

I'm not very familiar with this. I recommend doing some tests in test mode to see how this works.
