Hi 👋
Stripe is not designed to transfer funds to Customers. If you wish to transfer funds from your account to others, Stripe Connect is likely your best option.
In that scenario, each individual you wish to transfer funds to would need to create a Connected Account through your platform account and you could use that relationship to create Transfers: https://docs.stripe.com/api/transfers

Yes, that's what I was planning to do, but when I generate a link with the API, and try the onboarding, it asks a lot of questions, like "Provide with a description of your company". Isnt there a process that asks maybe only for number, email and payment methods?
kindred prism
No.
halcyon sorrel
Can I pre-fill those questions with the API so that the customer only has to answer a few questions?
kindred prism
Yes, you do that by providing more details when you first create the Account: https://docs.stripe.com/api/accounts/create

Ok, thank you!
kindred prism
Happy to shed what 💡 I can 🙂

Sorry one last question, for these following questions, what are the names of the attributes that I have to provide to the API in my backend so it doesn't show in the connect process onboarding:
