I'm retrieving a BalanceTransaction object, and it has "available_on": 1430265600, which has already passed, but funds are still not availble

what time zone is this timestamp in?

edgarjs: its unix timestamps so utx

*utc

edgarjs: the timestamp is utc

markin, dqsf ok so I'm doing it right, but funds still aren't available

edgarjs: I'd email support@stripe.com with these type of questions. They'll be able to look up your account details and see what's going on

ok, thank you

API question-- is a card guaranteed to have an associated country (Two-letter ISO code representing the country of the card)?

Anyone home? dqsf?

don't ask to ask, just ask :P

calibrun: yup

yanokwa: just ask your question

I definitely had an amex card process without giving a country. bug with the API? is it something I should follow up with somehow?

calibrun: id email support@stripe.com about that

The bin code of the card should provide a country

markin turnaround time for email seems to take a few days. any faster support options?

yanokwa: depends on the issue

markin: bin code? the country also doesn't show up for that particular purchase/card in the dashboard

calibrun: yeah so stripe should pick that up automatically based on the first 6 digits of the card number , hence I'd email support@stripe.com

markin: sounds good, thanks

hi shinichi

i am studying the "Connect",

I did read documents and api doc

carefully many times

but there are some confuses, could you make it clear for me

sure, just ask your questions

so, we have: "Platform" (me), Seller (Connected account), Customer (End user whom seller sell product to)

is customer charge go to Seller account

not platform?

i mean: seller and customer do a transaction directly, and platform just observe and may charge seller application-fee

or customer charge goto platform, later then, platform will payout the seller

you can do that, just charge directly to the seller's account https://stripe.com/docs/connect/payments-fees#c...

or you can do the later by charging through the platform

so, I have built an app that use my keys to charge user

if i use connect

would app use keys of "seller"

instead of mine

you'd never use the seller's api keys, you'd use the stripe-account header if you want to make charge charge come from the sellers account https://stripe.com/docs/connect/payments-fees#c...

so, I have my client app, that integrate with connect, use platform keys

when user buy a product, the payment process will generate a token

for charge

you'd generate a token using their publishable key and then you'd pass the stripe-account header when you create a charge

mmm, so, if charge through platform, is fund will goto platform bank account

and platform need do manual transfer to connecter account?

if you set the destination on the charge, Stripe will automatically make a transfer from your account to the connected account

yes, seem more clear

thanks you so much

you're welcome

Hello

I've asked this question multiple times before, both on here and SO but I still don't have an answer

stripe: whats the question?

If you refresh the page after you're charged you get this error '\Stripe\Error\InvalidRequest' however you cannot catch it

stripe: what does your php code for that page look like?

So if a user refreshes the page once they purchase a product, how am I supposed to give them a user-friendly error

it should be catchable, my guess is you're just not catching the right stripe call

It's a try/catch charge

do you also create a customer?

Yeah, I've tried heaps of different phrases such as removing the \ at the start, and it still doesn't work

Yeah I've made a customer, everything works fine except for this

so you should have a try/catch around the customer creation

I will see if that works

Are the catch errors the same for the customer?

yeah

okay thanks

Are all of them necessary though?

it depends, you could just catch the base Stripe error or if you want more specific handling you could handle them individually

That fixed the problem, awesome

thanks for the help

you're welcome

If you're not saving the customer's details, what's the point of creating one?

stripe: there wouldn't really be one, you could create charges against their card in the future, but if you're only doing one time charges and making the customer enter card details each time, no real purpose

thanks
