It depends on what you want the cc monthly statement for the payer to read.
Is it you or the secondary party that should appear on the billing statement? Who should the payer call when things go bad, or they want a refund? That is the account you should charge the entire amount to. Once that is done, and the payment is accepted, handle the splitting of money as a secondary transaction. Make a payment from the primary to the secondary account using another payment transaction. I have done this before, for a virtual western interior decorating store site I set up years ago.
