Hello, thank you 🙂 this sentence is under "Create a refund > refund_application_fee".

for some reason I wasn't able to find it by myself 🤦

No problem, it is a huge documentation 🙂

ok so basically if you do a partial refund
let's say you have charged the customer $100
and from that your application fee was $1
if you do a full refund with the refund_application_fee set to true then the Connect Account will receive their $1 (application fee)
let's say you do a partial refund of $50 to the customer
in that case the Connect Account will receive only 50c

And what is about the stripe payment fee?
flat ore
unfortunately that's not refundable
rigid sparrow
So, basically we never want to refund the whole sum of the charge, always without stripe fee
So let's say the stripe fee is $3. On a full refund, we will refund $100 - $3 = $97
flat ore
that's really up to you
There are no fees to refund a charge, but the fees from the original charge aren’t returned.

How does this work with 50%? Application fee was $1, stripe fee $3, so the connect account gets $96. If now we make a 50% charge to the 97$, how is this calculated?
rigid sparrow
Sorry, I mean 50% refund for the charge with $100 amount but without stripe fee, so $97
flat ore
in that case I think your calculation should be different
so basically 50% of 100 is 50 - 3 = 47
you will refund the customer $47
your Connect Account will get 50c back from you
and you will get to keep the 50c of the original application fee

Perfect, now I understand! Thank you very much!
