hello @cyan ravine! To clarify, do you mean you want to create a customer on a connected account? Or do you mean you want to onboard a connected account to your platform?
Actually my scenario is that i want to pay money to customers from my stripe account . how to achieve that?
Customer register through app and link their bank account through plaid. Then from that linked accounts we fetch transactions of customer and we calculate deduct spare amount from that transaction amount . That deducted spare amount goes in customer virtual wallet , but in actual it goes to admin account. Now the customer can withdraw money from wallet so in this case i need to transfer money from admin account to customer account
if I understood correctly, your customers are paying via ACH debits [0]? The payment goes into the customer's virtual wallet. The customer is also allowed to withdraw their money from this virtual wallet. And you would like to know how to return the funds from the virtual wallet to the customer?
yes
return funds from virtual wallet it actually means it will deducted from admin stripe account and transfer to customers
the only way would be to refund from the original payment : https://stripe.com/docs/ach#ach-refunds
is there any option that when we create customer we create connect account for that customer?
hmm, gimme a while to think about it and then get back to you
ok
@cyan ravine what Connect account type are you planning to use?
you can create a Customer and then a connect account, only if you're using Custom connected accounts.
You would do the following :
-
Collecting and verifying bank accounts - https://stripe.com/docs/ach#manually-collecting-and-verifying-bank-accounts
-
Create the connected account with the (basic) information you've collected from the customer -
https://stripe.com/docs/api/accounts/create -
If you need to collect more information on the connected account, you can use Connect Onboarding : https://stripe.com/docs/connect/connect-onboarding
-
Clone the bank account to the connected account : https://stripe.com/docs/connect/cloning-customers-across-accounts#creating-tokens
-
Create a bank account with the Stripe-Account header [0] : https://stripe.com/docs/api/external_account_bank_accounts/create
