hi
- How can I add application fee amount in separate charge and transfer?
- 'Amount' specified in the payment intent is what?
- Could you please explain the flow for example a customer paid CAD 100 we gets 5% and our user gets 95% after deducting stripe fees from 100usd.
- From our website i will get the amount charges to the customer. Using code, how can i write 5% goes to platform and 95% goes to user?

hey there, looking at this
WIth separate charge and transfer, you effectively collect your application fee by transferring less than the payment amount
there is not an explicit fee
You would calculate the amount to send to your user after the payment
Reserving whatever necessary for your platform
sharp snow
So I need to fetch the amount from stripe after deducting stripe fee? Then deduct our application fee and transfer to connected account?
nova latch
You can inspect the fees for the payment by looking at the balance transfer associated with the charge object:

Correct

Yes, exactly
sharp snow
one more thing. 'amount' specifies in the payment intent refers to which amount? amount chrged to customer or deducted amount after stripe fee?
$paymentIntent = \Stripe\PaymentIntent::create([
'amount' => 1000,
'currency' => 'cad',
]);
// Create a Transfer to a connected account (later):
$transfer = \Stripe\Transfer::create([
'amount' => 700,
'currency' => 'cad',
'destination' => 'acct_1KrMxdPFuBAwSNy4',
]);
amount 1000 means (amount from customer - stripe fee)?
nova latch
it's the amount that the customer will pay. Stripe fees are deducted from that amount and the remainder will go to your platform's balance.
sharp snow
amount 1000 means amount from customer
amount 700 means (amount from customer - stripe fee)?
My question is amount 1000 in payment intent is that customer amount. After that i need to retrieve the amount-stripe fee from stripe dashboard. Then that deducted amount will put inside the transfer amount, right?
nova latch
You can transfer whatever amount you need to the connected account, i don't know what that needs to be for your business
but using made up fee of say 100, if you used amount 1000 for the payment then amount 700 for the transfer, then you platform should end up at net +200 (+1000 payment - 100 fees - 700 transfer)

Hi
Fatal error: Uncaught (Status 400) (Request req_YE39cCK87QrP6d) You have insufficient funds
why this happening?
I am checking in test mode
nova latch
You need to either use the test card that makes the balance available immediately, or use source_transaction:
For test mode the test card is a quick workaround
sharp snow
ok
nova latch
but in live mode you must use the charge reference to link the pending balance
sharp snow
ok
sharp snow
can you tell me how can i do that? I added balance manually from dashboard. It is showing like it takes somedays to wire transfer
So my balance like 0. Then try to add one payment manually. But that amount also not showing up in my account. I can see it in transactions.
nova latch
You can't use source_transaction for that top up flow, you'd need to wait for it to be available
sharp snow
oh
nova latch
In test mode, use the card that skips pending balance to accrue some balance
sharp snow
Then how can i check the transfer is doing correctly?
nova latch
What do you mean?
sharp snow
How can I check the transfer amount going to connected account? I wrote the code for payment transfer. Then in local, i created on checkoput form. It will redirect me to a error sufficient funds. My doubt is how can I check from dsahboard that funds are flowing correctly to connected account and my platform?
insufficient**
nova latch
What do you mean "check the amount"? You create the transfer with the amount, right?
nova latch
$paymentIntent = \Stripe\PaymentIntent::create([
'amount' => 1000,
'currency...
Like this, you set the amount in Transfer::create
sharp snow
No, i meant i need to check whether my code is working or not. I have set the code for payment transfer. I need to check correct amount is getting in my platform and connected account
for that i need to complete checkout. within the checkout action page i write code for payment transfer. There i am getting insufficient funds. fatal error
How can i rid of that?
nova latch
Can you share a specific example? Where are you seeing insufficient funds?
sharp snow
ok
Just i need to know am i doing right or not, thats why
i have the prebuilt checkout form. In its suucess url , i write the code for payment transfer. Chcekout page works fine. After entering card details and pay now button, it will redirect to success url that is to the page conatins payment transfer code. In that page , am getting the error. So this prevents me from checking at the dashboard that what is the collected fee, transfer amount like that
nova latch
Where does this error happen, on your server trying to create the transfer?
sharp snow
yes
nova latch
Note that for success URL returns you likely also want to set up checkout.session.completed webhooks in case the redirect fails for some reason
OK, do you have an example of that transfer request failing?
Like this one: https://dashboard.stripe.com/test/logs/req_YE39cCK87QrP6d
You need to switch to manual payouts to accrue balance, if you haven't already done that
