Hey Jack, how is it going?

Hi Seth, so you want to charge an appropriate application fee to cover the processing fee, am I right?

somber oriole Oct 30, 2024, 5:24 AM

#

yes thats correct

grave needle Oct 30, 2024, 5:27 AM

Ok. The processing fee can only be determined when the charge is succeeded. The workaround here is to estimate and charge a sufficient application fee on the connected account first, and refund some of it after the payment (https://docs.stripe.com/api/fee_refunds/create)

Ah nice one. There wouldn't be any limitations based on location of the connect account and the platform?

grave needle Oct 30, 2024, 5:30 AM

#

No, you can create application fee refunds in any of your connected accounts
