AFAIK it has to pass through the platform

#

@sweet knoll Thank you for your reply.

#

you'd have to do a https://stripe.com/docs/connect/account-debits from one and then a transfer to the other

Debiting Express and Custom accounts

With Connect, your platform can directly debit the Stripe balance of an Express or Custom account.

#

Yes, it has to pass through the platform.

#

Is it possible to add payment method to connected account and get them?

#

#

in that case you will have to create a customer

#

for your connect account

#

and this is the other solution

torpid venture Jul 21, 2022, 8:18 AM

#

How do i do that?

sweet knoll Jul 21, 2022, 8:18 AM

#

you will treat the connect account as a normal customer

torpid venture Jul 21, 2022, 8:18 AM

#

yes

sweet knoll Jul 21, 2022, 8:18 AM

#

and you can do a direct charge to the other connect account

#

How to implement treat the connect account as a normal customer

sweet knoll Jul 21, 2022, 8:19 AM

#

but it's no longer called a transfer between connected accounts

#

How to implement treat the connect account as a normal customer
you forget that they are a connect account 😆

torpid venture Jul 21, 2022, 8:20 AM

#

then is it possible to transfer money between customers in stripe?

sweet knoll Jul 21, 2022, 8:20 AM

#

more seriously, you create a customer and you add the payment method and you do a direct charge to the other connect account
https://stripe.com/docs/connect/direct-charges

Creating direct charges

With Connect, you can make charges directly on the connected account and take fees in the process.

#

in my platform, there are 2 types of users: athletes and coaches.

#

but athletes can become coaches and vice versa

#

so when athlete makes a payment, the athlete becomes a customer in stripe and coaches should be connected account.

#

But this should be done vice versa

sweet knoll Jul 21, 2022, 8:22 AM

#

in that case you'd have to create a customer and a connect account for each individual

#

use the customer when you want them to pay

torpid venture Jul 21, 2022, 8:22 AM

#

so for one user, i have to create both

#

?

sweet knoll Jul 21, 2022, 8:22 AM

#

and the connect account when they want to get paid

#

there's no one good answer to be honest

torpid venture Jul 21, 2022, 8:23 AM

#

is it possible to create a customer and connected account at the same time?

sweet knoll Jul 21, 2022, 8:24 AM

#

it's two different flows

#

technically you can

#

but for the connect account it's a bit more complicated

torpid venture Jul 21, 2022, 8:25 AM

#

Ok, I see. thank you for your help.
