this is my entire function:

// Handler for checkout.session.async_payment_succeeded event
async function handleSuccessfulPayment(session: Stripe.Checkout.Session) {
    console.log("Received successful payment");
    const { transferGroupId, vendorsInTransaction } = session.metadata as { transferGroupId: string, vendorsInTransaction: string };
    const vendors = JSON.parse(vendorsInTransaction) as { price: number, stripeAccountId: string }[];

    for await (const { price, stripeAccountId } of vendors) {
        try {
            console.log("values", session.payment_intent)
            const transfer = await stripe.transfers.create({
                amount: price,
                currency: 'usd',
                destination: stripeAccountId,
                transfer_group: transferGroupId,
                source_transaction: session.payment_intent as string,
            });
            console.log(`Transfer created successfully: ${transfer.id}`);
        } catch (error) {
            console.error(`Error creating transfer for vendor ${stripeAccountId}:`, error);
        }
    }

    return new Response("Transfers processed successfully", { status: 200 });
}

also I'm unsure which webhook event I should use, checkout.session.async_payment_succeeded or checkout.session.completed

Hello

[lyric wigeon]

Hey

[lethal hollow]

So to clarify, you are attempting to create Transfers to multiple Connected Accounts after a successful transaction?

[lyric wigeon]

yeah

[lethal hollow]

Gotcha, then you want to listen to both of those Event types and when you receive one of them you retrieve the Checkout Session and expand the PaymentIntent: https://docs.stripe.com/api/checkout/sessions/object#checkout_session_object-payment_intent -- from that you look at latest_charge (https://docs.stripe.com/api/payment_intents/object#payment_intent_object-latest_charge) and that is the ID that you pass as the source_transaction for your Transfer

If you aren't familiar with Expansion then take a look at: https://docs.stripe.com/expand

[lyric wigeon]

okay 1 sec i'm just trying to implement that rq

I'm getting this error now:

Error creating transfer for vendor acct_1PmjLAIARny5XvyV: StripeInvalidRequestError: The currency of source_transaction's balance transaction (cad) must be the same as the transfer currency (usd)

also I did this:

const paymentIntent = (await stripe.checkout.sessions.retrieve(session.id, {
    expand: ["payment_intent"]
})).payment_intent as Stripe.PaymentIntent;

and for the source transaction I put source_transaction: paymentIntent.latest_charge as string,
this is what you meant right?

[lethal hollow]

Yep that all looks good but the error is pretty self-explanatory, no?

[lyric wigeon]

yup

i fixed it thanks i was just a dumbass

just to clarify, the checkout session can be in any currency tho right?

[lethal hollow]

Well you control that but yes

[lyric wigeon]

okay thanks for the help appreciate it

[lethal hollow]

Sure thing

[lyric wigeon]

quick question, if i were to charge fees would I subtract it directly from the amount?

[wispy ledge]

Hi 👋

My colleaguea had to go so I'm stepping in.

This sounds like a separate charges & transfers funds flow, correct?

[lyric wigeon]

alr np, yup your correct

[wispy ledge]

Okay in that case you retain whatever funds you want by reducing the amount you transfer to the Connected accounts.

[lyric wigeon]

ok thanks that's what i was wondering thanks

also this is my first bigger solo project, what would be the best practice for storing the fee % rate? env vars?

[wispy ledge]

Unfortunately that would be up to you to determine. I don't know enough about your system architecture to advise and it's outside the scope of my area of expertise

[lyric wigeon]

ok no problem, thank you

have a good day

[wispy ledge]

You too 👋
