hi there! do you mean the Customer exists on the connected account, and you want to create a charge on the platform account with that Customer?

exactly

#

that's not possible. What you should ideally do is collect the PaymentMethod on the platform account, then clone it to the connected account : https://stripe.com/docs/payments/payment-methods/connect#cloning-payment-methods. This way you still have the PaymentMethod of that customer on your platform account.

#

you should keep in mind that the Customer id on each account is going to be different, so you'll need to do some mapping in your own database if you want to be able to link them

That's a possible solution. I'll dive into it. Thanks!

#

thinking about it... Can I clone customers between accounts?

#

Cloning is only for PaymentMethods. You'll have to create a new customer.
