hello @twin viper! i'd start off from this page and go through the use case that is relevant to your business : https://stripe.com/docs/connect
you can create a card to be attached to the seller's Stripe account using https://stripe.com/docs/api/external_account_cards/create
twin viper
So it means:
- Create an connect account!
- Create a debit card for this account!
I also wanted to ask
Does this method work in any region?
tidal mantle
debit cards a.k.a instant payouts are only supported in certain regions i.e. in Canada, Singapore, and the United States

I understood you! but my business is in Lithuania! what advice can you give me?
the task is this: I need to withdraw money from the buyer's card and give part of the amount to the seller
tidal mantle
so if the seller is in a region that doesn't support debit cards. Then you should add a bank account to the seller instead.
twin viper
if I withdraw money from a client using Instant payouts
how will I pay the seller?
tidal mantle
i think there may have been some confusion here
to be clear, the client (i.e. this is a Customer to Stripe) can pay using debit cards in any region
the restriction is on the Seller (i.e. this is a connected account to Stripe), if the Seller is not in a region that supports debit cards, then you can just add a bank account
so the client pays using a debit card, and you can payout to the seller that has either a bank account or a debit card

In my case, in order for me to pay the seller, do I need to add the seller's bank account? without him how?
tidal mantle
depending on which connect account type you're using, you may have to collect the seller's bank account and add it to their Stripe account.
If you're using Standard/Express : you will not have to collect this information, the seller will fill it up in their Stripe Dashboard.
if you're using Custom : you will need to collect this information and add it to their Stripe account.
More information on each Stripe connected account type can be found here : https://stripe.com/docs/connect/accounts

I understood!
That is, if the business is for Lithuania, then we only need to work with bank accounts?
tidal mantle
for the seller, yes
