Hi ๐Ÿ‘‹

The difference between these two are how you get the funds. If you use transfer_amount, the charge is created on your Platform account but only the amount you specified is transferred to the Connected Account.

On the other hand, if you specify application_fee_amount, then the entire charge amount is sent to the Connected Account and then the application fee amount is transferred back to your platform account.

ahh interesting

#

but payment intents and the resource creation doesn't change

#

just the backend flow of payouts?

#

Correct?

Nope, just the movement of the money

#

With the Application Fee amount, there are more payment objects created to move the money back and forth, so tracking dow the Stripe fees can get more complicated. But, as far as charging the customer goes, it's all the same
