#Sosa-separate-charge-transfer

Hi 👋 Invoices already generate their own underlying charge, so you don't need to create a new one. Instead you can find the Payment Intent related to an invoice, and then find the Charge related to the Payment Intent.

thank you for your answer, but to get the charge generated from the invoice, the customer must pay first ?
storm plank
Correct

Okay so we must use the webhooks for example and listen on the invoice payment event and then catch the charge generated and make our tranfers ? or there is another way ?
storm plank
Yup, that would be the best way to trigger the additional steps after payment. invoice.payment_succeeded would be a good event to listen for.

ok thank you, i'll try that

👍 sounds good, we'll be here if that doesn't seem to do what you're looking for.
