You want to follow https://stripe.com/docs/payments/payment-methods/connect (the one you were using is for the old Sources API)
Oh wait
You can't do what you're trying to do. The balance of a connected account is not a Customer balance.
Customers (for Subscriptions) are entirely separate from Connected Accounts.

Thank you @formal portal .
Could you please let me know how can I do what I want...
What should I follow
how can I subscribe using connected user balance?
how can user make payments from there instead of using his credit card for example?
formal portal
You can't. The balance of a connected account is entirely different from a Customer's payment method.

Thank you
Could you please let me know what is about this page: https://stripe.com/docs/connect/subscriptions
formal portal
Sure, what are you wondering about it?
lilac prairie
"With Connect, you can create subscriptions for connected accounts, optionally taking fees in the process."
formal portal
Ah I see the confusion. The connected account owns the Subscription (instead of the platform). Not "the connected account is paying for the Subscription".
lilac prairie
Oh... got it now...
Just one more question if OK 🙂 ? Is that mean that connected account balance only exist to accept money transferred from the platform and proceed with bank account/debit?
(question is regarding interaction with the platform)
one way -> from the platform to the connected account

thats correct, its for funds paid by the platform for the account providing services
