It sounds like you're describing destination charges to split funds with one of your connected accounts before paying out to the platform or connected account bank accounts: https://stripe.com/docs/connect/charges#types
you should read about that and contact Stripe support with a detailed description of your needs and concerns if this doesn't provide what you're looking for.

Hi
I just read your message
I was looking the thread
I already read that, it works fine
But my question is more about the interpretation of what is written in Stripe
Hello! I'd be happy to help further, just let me know what specific questions you have!
Because , on the payment details, it is not clear how the money transferred
Destination
Our understanding is like :
The client pays Stripe
Stripe keeps the money without its fees
Stripe the transfert the money to the connected account
And the part that is not clear is : are the application fees transfert to the connected account and then to my account
Or vice Versa
For accountability, the transfert should be at the same second meaning : The application fees should automatically collected , and at the same second the connected account should receive his money
And the part that is not clear is : are the application fees transfert to the connected account and then to my account
Or vice Versa
That depends how you set up your integration. Have a look at the funds flow diagrams in each of these sections:
https://stripe.com/docs/connect/destination-charges#flow-of-funds-app-fee
https://stripe.com/docs/connect/destination-charges#flow-of-funds-amount
Yes, we read that
But does it mean that the connected receive all the money and after transfert the application ?
I’m asking because on the transfert details , I see for every payment 3 lines generated
Not sure I understand what you're asking. There are two different funds flows depending on if you're using application_fee_amount or if you're using transfer_data.amount. Which flow are you referring to?
one sec, I will share some screens
sorry, i was switching device
here is my setup
return stripe.checkout.Session.create(
payment_method_types=['card'],
line_items=line_items,
subscription_data={
'application_fee_percent': 79.36,
'transfer_data': {
'destination': account_id,
},
},
mode='subscription',
allow_promotion_codes=True,
on the plateform, I see this.
Okay, so you're using application_fee_percent, which means the funds flow looks like this:
That's not what you want, right?
but in "payment/all transaction, I can see that 3 lines were created
yes, it's the flow I wanted, but our lawyer and accountant dont understand , looking at stripe, if the money goes like in the schema or if it's not transferred (bank to bank)
looking at my last screenshot, which is what the accountant will receive, there are 3 lines
Everything in the flow I posted above happens inside Stripe.
okay, so it's safe to say that all the money transfert is something internally in Stripe
meaning neither the platform or the connected account receives the funds and then transfer
?
what creates the discussion is the last scrennshot I sent, because it's what the accountant receives
we can see 3 lines
so for the account, it means that the money was transferred 3 times
The money movement you're referring to all happens inside Stripe between the platform and connected accounts.
Once all of that settles the funds will eventually go from pending to available in the Stripe account balances and can then be paid out to an external bank account.
clear
others questions (sorry to bother, its because we are in the insurance sector and there are some regulations )
- is a Stripe account considered as a wallet ( like a revolut account ?)
That's not something I can answer. I recommend you ask support that question: https://support.stripe.com/contact
- what happens if the balance is négative ? for example, if we refunds the 1st customer, then the balance will be -0.71€ ( stripe fees ). Where do stripe will collect the fees ?
This page explains what happens in detail: https://stripe.com/docs/connect/account-balances
thanks for your help
it looks like i just need to understand if money mouvement between the platform and the connected account is considered same as a money mouvement between 2 banks account
