Hi, could you please give me more context on your question?

zealous briar Jan 11, 2022, 5:38 AM

#

Yea. I’m using stripe connect for my application

#

The app has services which are provided by users itself.

#

So basically a user can be both consumers and providers

#

So user will be adding money to their wallet before using a service.

#

Basically the connect account is their wallet.

#

I'm not sure if I follow you, did you encounter a problem in making API call? are you making direct/destination charges or separate charge and transfer?

zealous briar Jan 11, 2022, 6:49 AM

#

I’m not talking about charges here. I’m asking about topup for self connect account.

#

@twin reef

#

Adding money to his own connect account (wallet) for availing services.

Are you referring to this https://stripe.com/docs/connect/top-ups ? i.e., add funds from a bank account?

Adding funds to your platform balance

Platforms can add funds to their balance from a bank account.

zealous briar Jan 11, 2022, 7:36 AM

#

Yes

#

I want to know if I can implement this for every user for adding balance to their own connect account.

You can learn more about the requirements here https://stripe.com/docs/connect/top-ups#requirements

Adding funds to your platform balance

Platforms can add funds to their balance from a bank account.

#

stripe.Topup.create(
amount=2000,
currency="usd",
transfer_data={
'destination': '{{account_id}}',
)

#

Is this possible?

#

#

Hi @zealous briar I think the most effective way is to trying out the API yourself, and you can also come back to Discord if you encounter any problems.

zealous briar Jan 11, 2022, 8:01 AM

#

Ok

zealous briar Jan 11, 2022, 8:45 AM

#

@twin reef I tried this api. This is for adding platform balance right? Can it be used by our users for adding balance to their wallet?

#

Wallet is something we maintain in our application.

#

So that users don’t need to type their card details everytime they use a service from other users.

#

Did you get it? @twin reef

twin reef Jan 11, 2022, 9:00 AM

#

what's the response you get from the API? can you give me the request ID?

#

@zealous briar you can only top up your platform balance yes. You can transfer the funds from there to a specific connected account, instead of topping up the connected account itself.

#

or often what people do is you on your platform you have a Customer which in your system, you say is the same person as the account holder and have the account holder add their card to it. Then you charge the customer (in e.g. a Destination charge) to "top up" the connected account, that's quite common.

#

tranquil spruce or often what people do is you on your platform you have a Customer which in you...

Will there be any charges?

tranquil spruce Jan 11, 2022, 9:42 AM

#

@zealous briar can you elaborate?

#

like do you mean are there Stripe fees to pay?

zealous briar Jan 11, 2022, 9:43 AM

#

If I use destination charge for the topup scenario, will there be any fee which the customer has to pay?

zealous briar Jan 11, 2022, 9:43 AM

#

tranquil spruce like do you mean are there Stripe fees to pay?

Yea
