Delayed payments like Upwork (Stripe Connect) - Bubble.io tutorial 

Hi there, The 'Stripe Connect - Create Checkout Session' action isn't really suitable for purchasing multiple products. However, the latest version of the plugin has an action called 'Stripe Connect - Create Checkout Session (Multiple Items)' action that is designed for this. I've also written a detailed guide on how to use this which you can see here: forum.bubble.io/t/how-to-process-shopping-cart-payments-with-stripe-connect-multiple-sellers-one-payment/334077 I will also hopefully be releasing a video tutorial in the next few days. Hope that helps and if you've any questions just let me know 🙂

​@@CranfordTech yes i have a question, in my backend workflows im creating an order, and in front-end im scheduling that workflow api when confirm purchase button is pressed. How do I pass all the information correctly? and should I do it in backend workflows or the front end after scheduling that API Workflow? Also, there's no action available in backend workflows that open an external website for stripe checkout.

​@@krypto305 you won't be able to access the URL created for the checkout session via the backend workflow. It's a little hard for me to give specific advice without seeing your editor setup, but you could create the order in the backend and then create the Checkout Session in the front end 🙂 Does that make sense?

@@CranfordTech it makes sense but the problem I see with it is: that if multiple orders are checkout from the different sellers would it be feasible for stripe marketplace plugin to send automated payments to all the sellers

@@krypto305 yes this is feasible, but it's a bit more complex than what I show in this video. You'll need to use the 'Separate Charges and Transfers' approach with the 'Create Checkout Session (Multiple Items)' action. I recommend watching this video I just released for full details: www.youtube.com/watch?v=K5i1KR Hope that helps 🙂

Yep, you want to have your freelancers create an Express account as part of their onboarding. I recently released this tutorial video on the subject which may be useful: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ABOpNKw6r0s.html You can also see an example on signing up merchants/sellers in the sign-up flow of my Etsy app: bubble.io/page?type=page&name=metsy-registration&id=stripeconnectmarketplace&tab=tabs-2 Hope that helps and if you've any other questions just let me know 🙂

Good idea! You could potentially only release the payment once both parties have approved the work.

Very sorry, don't know how I missed that! I consider the pros and cons of the separate charges & transfer method to be as follows: PROS - More robust; you have the funds on your connnected account immediately - Can transfer funds to multiple parties CONS - In most cases, the platform and connected account must be in the same region - Adds complexity; you need to ensure you have sufficient funds in the platform account to transfer

Thank you for your quick and elaborate answer! @@CranfordTech

@ThisGuyNarrates no problem 🙂 if you have any other questions just let me know.

@@CranfordTech what about financial regulatory for this approach? you almost certainly need licensing in order to hold funds.

Hi there, this is a good question and something I should have addressed in the video. The plugin comes with an action called "Stripe Connect - Create a Refund". The below demo app has a section called "Refunds" that show you how to use it: stripeconnectmarketplace.bubbleapps.io/version-test
