HI there!

Hi, can you help me with my query please?

Can you clarify what you mean by "for any connected sub-business account"?

#

When creating a PaymentIntent (or customer) with connect, you can either create it on the platform account, or on the connected account using the Stripe-Account header https://stripe.com/docs/connect/authentication

Thanks for the info. Here is my scenario. I create two businesses under Stripe connect standard mode, say Biz-1 and Biz-2. Now can I create two customers, say Cust-1 and Cust-2, to use the same customer (say Cust-1) account to create a PaymentIntent for Biz-1 and Biz-2?

I'm sorry I don't understand this part:

can I create two customers, say Cust-1 and Cust-2, to use the same customer (say Cust-1) account t
What is "cust" here? A Stripe account, or a customer object?

Cust-1 and Cust-2 are two customer accounts that I want should be used with Biz-1 and Biz-2 Stripe connect accounts in standard mode. I hope I am able to convey my point

I think I understand. You have the platform account and 2 connected account (biz-1 and biz-2). And you want to be able to use a customer object on both biz-1 and biz-2?

#

Yes, correct. Thanks

Got it! Then you should create the customer and PaymentIntent once on the platform account, and then clone the customer and PaymentIntent to the connected accounts: https://stripe.com/docs/payments/payment-methods/connect#cloning-payment-methods

#

Thanks for the information. Can I create the Customer at the platform level and create the PaymentIntent at the connected account level? Or do I need to create both Customer and PaymentIntent at the platform level and then clone them at the connected account leve?

#

If you want both connected account to have access to the PaymentIntent, then you need to create it at the platform level so you can clone it on the connected accounts.
If you only use the PaymentIntent on a single connected account, then you can created it on the connected account directly using the Stripe-Account header.

Ok, so I want the PaymentIntent to be created at the connected account level but the customer to be created at the platform level and used at the connected account level
