hey can you say a bit more what you mean? are you referring to the payment amount staying in your pending balance?

Oh sorry i'm french so sometimes its difficult to explain what I means .
So i create a system to pay with this :

stripe.paymentIntents.create({
                amount: Math.floor(amount),
                currency: "EUR", 
                description: 'Thats just a test',
                payment_method: paymentMethod, 
                confirm: true
            })

and after i want to transfer like this :

    const transfer = await stripe.transfers.create({
                    amount: Math.floor((amount*85)/100),
                    currency: 'eur',
                    destination: docs.stripeId,
                });

but when i try to transfer i have an error :
StripeInvalidRequestError: You have insufficient funds in your Stripe account
So i'm asking if when we are in test mode the payment aren't add to wallet

On the platform, use a test card like 4000000000000077 which skips the pending balance and is made available immediately, then you can use the funds with a transfer
The top two cards here: https://stripe.com/docs/testing#cards-responses

hummmm okay so that will be a problem if my customers's payments have a pending time

#

Well yes, this is just regarding test mode

#

For real payments, there is another option of linking the transfer to the source_transaction:

https://stripe.com/docs/connect/charges-transfers#transfer-availability

Creating separate charges and transfers

With Connect, you can make charges on your platform account on behalf of connected accounts, perform transfers separately, and retain funds in the process.

thanks i have an other question i have this error when i use the source_transaction with paymentIntents id :
StripeInvalidRequestError: No such charge: 'pi_3KEaWUGmJ5WnHwdA0P8N9Iui'
did i have to replace stripe.paymentIntents.create method to stripe.charges.create ?

No you should still use payment intents, but you'll need the underlying charge reference from the payment intent:

Let me know if I can help clarify! payment intents use charges under the hood (think of them like a stateful wrapper around a payment). For this specific scenario you need to provide a reference to that charge.
