#Smiley Dev - Connect Subscriptions

Yea, I know, I am going to use Standard.
I guess there is no problem using standard or express for that, btw.

What you're describing doesn't sound like something we recommend/support. With Standard accounts the Subscriptions should be created on the connected accounts themselves, not your platform account, so on_behalf_of would not apply.
If you're using Express accounts you can create a Subscription on your platform account and then make separate Transfers to multiple connected accounts, but you can only make the Subscription on_behalf_of a single account.

Oh gotcha, if then I will use standard account, with this, is it possible?

Can you tell me more about what you're trying to build so I can provide recommendations?

There are two connect accounts as a seller and they upload products to the site, then users subscribe monthly payment $10, it will be transferred to them each one $4(totally $8) except application fee.
What I want to know is that how can send the payment two accounts at one time.

That would be possible with a Subscription on your platform account with separate Transfers to the connected accounts.
This is a more advanced integration that requires a significant amount of logic on your end, but it is quite possible.
This is our documentation for separate charges and transfers: https://stripe.com/docs/connect/charges-transfers
You would need to combine that approach with a Subscription on your platform account.
So it would be Subscription that charges $10 on your platform and then you create two Transfers for $4 each to each connected account.

It cannot be automatically transferred through the subscription?
I need to create charges-transfers for that?
copper sun
You need to create separate Transfers, yes, using the Charges generated by the Subscription as the source for the Transfers.
It can only automatically be done if you have a single connected account to send the money to. For multiple you need to handle the separate Transfers on your end.

Yea, It seems I will need to calculate some application fees, and logics, gotcha, thank you!
copper sun
With this approach it's less about using application fees and more about only transferring what you don't want to keep, but yeah. 🙂
