#Anjali - Stripe Fee
oblique remnant
Hi 👋
I'm a little confused by that description. Can you spell out the flow of funds as you would like to see them a bit more clearly?

ok. customer make payment-> take tripe fee -> split the funds between our platform and service provider. I saw that platform is responsible for stripe fee in case of destination charge

One approach could be to use separate charge & transfers. Then you could examine the stripe fee associated with the initial charge and subtract it from the amount you transfer to the connected account.

I need to subtract stripe from initial charge then the split need to be performed. that means stripe fee cannot reduce either from platform or service provider

subtract stripe from initial charge
Can you clarify what you mean by this? Do you change what you charge the customer in that case?
Let's both take the example shown in the funds flow diagram here: https://stripe.com/docs/connect/charges-transfers#collecting-fees
The Stripe fee is collected at the time of the charge processing. The platform then disperses any payments to the providers according to their own business logic. The platform retains all funds not transferred.
Where would you want to move the payment of the Stripe fees?
