Hello, can you elaborate on "to a Balance to a Connect users' Stripe Dashboard"?

#

Do you mean topup to a Connect Account's Balance?

#

Gosh woops

#

Yes so, say we have a balance of $10000 for a vendor/seller Connect account, but its not updated in the Stripe Dashboard for them

#

Is it possible for us to write Javascript and an API call that would update their Account's Payouts Balance?

#

Do you mean that they should already have the balance, but it's just late on displaying?

#

From API you can confirm their balance by the Retrieve Balance API: https://stripe.com/docs/api/balance/balance_retrieve

For example if Amazon or Ebay or Etsy used Stripe Connect

#

They would have a Balance in their internal databases. Which they would then need to send to Stripe Connect so all the sellers can see their incoming Payouts

#

I believe those companies will leave it to Stripe to manage their Connected Account's balance. Generally they will use our API to topup their Connected Account, instead of managing it themself

Hmm, I guess right now, if someone makes a purchase on our platform => Their Stripe Dashboards wont be updated with their Revenue because we havent built that in yet

#

I'm trying to read up on how to do this

#

Which type of purchase are you building? There are Direct Charges/ Destination Charge/Separate Charge and Transfer

icy cloud Nov 25, 2021, 2:39 AM

#

We are currently using /payments/create

#

But do we need to change that to...

#

No prob, you can start from here: https://stripe.com/docs/connect/charges#types

Create a charge

Accept payments and specify how these funds should be split between your platform and your connected account by creating charges.

Thank you will read up and ask a Q in a bit

{
    ...
    "payouts": {
      ...
      "schedule": {
        "delay_days": 7,
        "interval": "daily"
      },
    ...
  }

#

So after the Destination Charge, you do a Payouts API call it seems

latent bear Nov 25, 2021, 4:15 AM

#

Yeah, there are Automatic Payout and Manual Payout
