hi! you need the public and private keys of your platform, and then you use the Stripe-Account header on requests set to the ID of the connected account https://stripe.com/docs/connect/authentication ; that's all you ever need

as for how to take fees on Orders using Connect, not sure, let me look, this is a new API to me

[plain stump]

yeah sure 🙂

[mild star]

I believe it would be this : https://stripe.com/docs/api/orders_v2/create#create_order_v2-payment-settings-application_fee_amount you pass the application_fee_amount you want to take there

the fee works the same as this : https://stripe.com/docs/connect/direct-charges#flow-of-funds-with-fees

[plain stump]

and then you use the Stripe-Account header on requests set to the ID of the connected account

    const stripe = require('stripe')(stripeKey, {
        apiVersion: '2020-08-27; orders_beta=v3',
        stripeAccount: "acct_1connectedAccountID"
    });

Can I do it just like this, cause I am using the sdk?

[mild star]

well acct_1connectedAccountID is naturally a placeholder for the real ID of the account, but yes, that's how it works, per my link : https://stripe.com/docs/connect/authentication#adding-the-connected-account-id-to-a-client-side-application

[plain stump]

Yeah, but the payment intent is created with the order. So I cant controll it...

[plain stump]

ah nice 🙂
And than the order will be created at the connected account and not at the plattform account, right?

[mild star]

try the parameter I mentioned

[mild star]

if you create it on the backend that way then yes

which again means using your platform secret key and passing Stripe-Account , in the backend call to create the Order

[plain stump]

so I cant init the sdk with the accountid. I need to pass the connected account id in every operation, right?

[plain stump]

like this:

[plain stump]

oh and than the connected account id will also be redirected to the payment intent, right?

[plain stump]

yeah, sure.

[mild star]

depends. On the frontend in stripe.js you have to initialise stripe.js with stripeAccount globally. On the backend in most of our libraries it's set on a per-request basis, so they're different

[mild star]

not sure what that means, it's the end-customer who is paying, not the connected account. Using the Stripe-Account header means the Order/PaymentIntent/other objects are created on the connected account and the money lands directly in their account(minus any fee you specify)

[plain stump]

ah ok 👍

[plain stump]

ah. The order is created with the header. But I cant controll how the payment intent will be created. So I cannot offer this (see screenshot). But if I send the order with the connected account id, than this will be automatically do stripe and offers the value, right?

[mild star]

the PaymentIntent is created by the order

so it will be on the same account as the Order, you don't need to do anything special really

[plain stump]

ah ok, great!

Can I somehow get the total amount of the order in one request, cause I want the fee by percent of the order total amount. I dont want to get the total amount from the frontend cause it could be manipulated. Currently I do this: https://paste.gg/p/anonymous/048af9ade5be447e9ad3e041f8e1bba9

[mild star]

not sure unfortunately, Orders are really new to me

my colleague will be taking over this thread in a moment while I get lunch and might know

[plain stump]

I saw the order have this value

[plain stump]

sure, no problem. Have a great lunch 😉

[plain stump]

@restive kiln u will take over this thread?

[restive kiln]

Yes I will. Just getting caught up on this one now, sorry for the dealy

[plain stump]

no problem 🙂

[restive kiln]

So are you saying that that amount_total does work for you or are you looking for the pre-tax amount to calculate your percentage on?

[plain stump]

I'd like to charge my customers with percentage amount of the total amount from the order. amount_total does work, but I have 2 requests. Can I do this smarter?

[restive kiln]

Gotcha, thanks for the clarification. I am less familiar with the orders API but am looking in to how to do this in one call

[plain stump]

sure, take ur time 😄

[restive kiln]

Unfortunately I am not finding any good leads here though like I said I am not as familiar with it. If you write in to our support team, they should be able to direct you to the team that runs this beta and they will have a better idea on if this is possible https://support.stripe.com/?contact=true

[plain stump]

ok 👍

After I process the Order the customer get's redirected to the given return_url sometime the url get's the query with paymentintentid and paymentintent secret and sometimes with orderid and ordersecret. When does what happen?

[restive kiln]

I am also not immediately sure on that, I can check in to the Payment Intents if you send me their IDs but I may have to direct you to the team that is running the beta again

[plain stump]

ok we can do this 🙂

[plain stump]

Last question. Can I somehow check if the payment elements are loaded? The user enters the page and the iframe loads. It obviesly not directly there, so I want to disable some buttons. How can I check if the <PaymentElement/> are rendered?

[restive kiln]

Would the on ready event help you here or is that something slightly different? https://stripe.com/docs/js/element/events/on_ready

[plain stump]

@restive kiln I cant use this element, cause I develope in react

[plain stump]

hii @vast river are u the person who is going to take over this thread? Cause Pompey went just offline

[vast river]

Hi there 👋 apologies for the delay while I work to get caught up. I'm not the most well-versed in React, so would you mind helping me understand why you can't listen for that event with it?

[plain stump]

no problem. I want to give u a personal example. Which programm languages do u now (web)?

whether backend or frontend does not matter

[vast river]

Ah, a teammate also just pointed me to the props that we have built into our React library that seem like they'd be used to achieve what you're looking for:
https://stripe.com/docs/stripe-js/react#element-components

[plain stump]

yeah, thats the library I use. How do I solve my problem?

[barren geyser]

Hey there 👋
Stepping in here
You can use onReady prop to listen for an event that would fire when the PaymentElement is fully rendered

[plain stump]

hii there.
Just use this in my useEffect function?

[barren geyser]

For example

  const runThisFunction = (e) => { console.log(`PaymentElement rendered`) } 

  <PaymentElement onReady={runThisFunction} />

[plain stump]

ahhh 🤦‍♂️

give me a second to confirm this

worked! Thanks 👍

[barren geyser]

NP! 🙂 Happy to help

Good luck

[plain stump]

Thank u 👌

Hello! Stripe is telling me to update bank info so they are holding my payments. The bank information is/has been the same for years
