SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? Choosing the right Stripe Connect configuration is error-prone: dashboard access, fee collection, loss liability, and charge patterns interact in complex ways, and some combinations are blocked or silently create liability mismatches. This Skill guides you through a structured discovery process and produces a validated recommendation plan. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Business research and auto-fill: Provide a company URL or description and the Skill researches your business model, parties, payment flow, and fee structure, auto-filling discovery answers with confidence levels. - Compatibility validation: Cross-checks every proposed configuration against a compatibility matrix, blocking invalid combinations (for example, Stripe-owned losses with destination charges) and explaining the fix. - Recommendation plan generation: Produces a markdown plan covering Accounts v2 configuration, charge pattern, fee economics, embedded components, and implementation next steps. - Use Case: You are building a marketplace that pays out sellers. Describe your business, and the Skill recommends Express dashboard with platform-owned fees and losses, destination charges, and the correct application fee calculation. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to recommend a Stripe Connect configuration for your marketplace or platform, optionally providing your company URL.

FAQPage Schema
How do I choose the right Stripe Connect configuration for my marketplace?

Provide your company URL or a business description and the Skill researches your model, then maps findings to a recommended configuration. Marketplaces typically get Express dashboard, platform-owned fees and losses, and destination charges.

What is the difference between direct, destination, and separate charges in Stripe Connect?

Direct charges make the connected account the merchant of record, destination charges make the platform the merchant of record with automatic transfers, and separate charges and transfers allow multi-seller splits and hold-and-release payouts. The Skill selects the pattern based on who owns the customer relationship.

Should I use the legacy Stripe account types or Accounts v2?

Use the Accounts v2 API with explicit dashboard, fees_collector, and losses_collector fields instead of the legacy standard, express, and custom types. The Skill reframes account type questions into v2 configuration dimensions.

Why is my Stripe Connect configuration combination blocked?

Combinations like Stripe-owned loss liability with destination charges are blocked because disputes debit the platform balance while recovery requires platform-owned negative balance liability. The Skill explains the failure mechanism and recommends the nearest allowed alternative.

Can I use application_fee_amount with separate charges and transfers?

No, application_fee_amount is not compatible with separate charges and transfers. Platforms using that pattern collect fees through transfer math, transferring less than the charge amount and retaining the difference.
