Destination Charges only works when the connected account as a destination is set before the payment is succeeded.

If your system doesn't know the connected account ID before the payment is succeeded, I'd recommend using the Separate Charges and Transfer flow: https://docs.stripe.com/connect/separate-charges-and-transfers which the payment will be collected first, then transfer the funds to the connected account when the destination connected account is known

Create separate charges and transfers

Create charges on your platform account and transfer funds to multiple connected accounts.

Ah gotcha

#

Makes sense ty

#

Another question, if I want to refund buyers with in-site credit, do they need their own connected account?

tight dove Jul 30, 2024, 3:43 AM

#

If the fund is refunded to the original payment that the customer is made, then no connected account is needed

#

What about if you want to support multiple countries; what burden is there on the developer to understand & handle the payment regulations of each country?

#

I read that stripe handles currency exchange, and I believe embedded onboarding will ask for your country's tax forms. But it's still hard to understand the potential edge cases

#

What is the country of your platform, and which type of connected account (Standard, Express or Custom) do you use?

still lion Jul 30, 2024, 3:48 AM

#

Platform is USA. Merchants use express accounts.

#

I want to support merchants from 3rd world countries u feel

Hi @still lion I'm taking over this thread

#

Looks like you need cross-border payouts, and this is the list of supported countries https://docs.stripe.com/connect/cross-border-payouts#supported-countries

Cross-border payouts

Transfer and pay out funds around the world.

#

Note that Cross-border payouts is only avaialble for US platforms

#

Thank you, this seems perfect. Would you say this is how a platform like Fiverr is agnostic about their merchant country of origin?

#

I'm also a bit curious why the original account has to be from the United States

#

If you don't know it's alright, I'll be good from here

If you don't have a US entity to set up a Stripe US account, you can consider using Atlas https://stripe.com/atlas
