Hello! If you are using separate charges and transfers, you can link the transfer to the charge with source_transaction so it waits until the charge has settled 🙂 our docs explain this here: https://docs.stripe.com/connect/separate-charges-and-transfers#transfer-availability

They also outline how to create the transfer which moves the funds from your platform to your conencted account: https://docs.stripe.com/connect/separate-charges-and-transfers#create-transfer

i had to use transfer_data.destination to make this work. im not creating a charge. im creating a payment intent in my code

      amount: chargedAmountCents,
      currency: 'usd',
      customer: senderStripeCustomerId,
      payment_method: senderStripePaymentMethodId,
      payment_method_types: ['us_bank_account'],
      transfer_data: {
        destination: receiverConnectAccount.stripeAccountId,
      },
      confirm: true,
      off_session: true,
      description: `Admin test charge ${senderUserId} -> ${receiverUserId}`,
      metadata: {
        mode: 'admin_test_charge_transfer',
        senderUserId,
        receiverUserId,
      },
    });```

so my platform isnt really involved

the money has landed in the recipient stripe account but it hasnt automatically paid out yet. should it have? how do i know when it does? the payment intent still has status "processing"

[main aurora]

Ah I see you're doing destination charges like this: https://docs.stripe.com/connect/destination-charges?platform=web&ui=elements

So it's not relevant, but just so you know, you can get the latest charge from a payment intent with this field: https://docs.stripe.com/api/payment_intents/object#payment_intent_object-latest_charge

Can you please share your Payment Intent ID?

[proven grove]

are those id's safe to show in these threads?

[main aurora]

Yes, the only thing you don't want to share publicly are API keys / secrets.

Thanks! Since the payment method is a bank account, it can take a few days to process. Therefore, the funds should be in your account's pending balance which you can check like this: https://docs.stripe.com/connect/account-balances#check-connected-account-balance

Once the payment intent's status is succeeded the funds will be in your account's available balance and folllow your automatic payout schedule. Does that make sense?

[proven grove]

what cli command can i use to see the stripe connect account pending and available balance?
i tried stripe balance retrieve --stripe-account ...Rb0
but all balances are 0

[main aurora]

Hm that should be right. Are you making that request with your platform's API key? Can you share your request ID?

[proven grove]

that was it. i added the api key and i now see the pending balance of 914

[main aurora]

Nice!

[proven grove]

can i make my cli always recognize that key when my intention is to query production so i dont have to add it to history

[main aurora]

There are a few different ways to set and persist API keys for the CLI which you can read about here: https://docs.stripe.com/cli/api_keys

[proven grove]

awesome. ill continue monitoring balances and pi's for a couple more days. once the balance is available, will stripe trigger the payout the next day?

[main aurora]

It should, yes! Feel free to contact us again with the payment intent or account ID if something doesn't go as expected.

[proven grove]

great thanks for your help!
