How would I allow user to user payments.

Hi. How would one go about implementing user to user payments? I do not want a percentage of any payments. How do sites like Shopify do it? They support multiple payment gateways and let the users decide and get payments from customers.

    Stripe Connect supports this and is what a lot of marketplaces use: https://stripe.com/connect

      Yep this is the answer here. Just gotta be careful to calculate your margins carefully, the pricing can be spendy if you are doing low volume, low amount payments. For example if you were to take a $10 payment and pay it out. You would end up paying about $.85 in fees. Some businesses will find this cheap, but if you are in a low margin business that could be deadly.

    As well as Stripe Connect, you can also do this with PayPal, GoCardless, Mangopay and probably others. They each do it differently though.
