Hello! Taking a look 🙂

Your platform can facilitate dispersing payments across multiple connected accounts with separate charges and transfers: https://docs.stripe.com/connect/separate-charges-and-transfers

This means the charge is created on the platform, then it keeps a portion and transfers the appropriate amounts to the connected accounts.

but the invoices are paid to the merchant of trade not the platform. so i cant do transfers to multiple connected accounts

or are you saying once an invoice is paid, the platform charges that account the "platform fee", then that charge is complete it transfers it to who ever it needs

[worthy summit]

Separate charges and transfer allow you to specify the settlement merchant with the on_behalf_of parameter: https://docs.stripe.com/connect/separate-charges-and-transfers?platform=web&ui=stripe-hosted#settlement-merchant

So even though the charge is created on the platform (allowing them to keep/disperse funds as needed) it still appears as if it is for the connected account to the customer. Does that help?
