Cash Balance Transactions represent when funds are moved into or out of this balance. This includes funding by the customer, allocation to payments, and refunds to the customer.
You can store multiple cards on a customer in order to charge the customer later. You can also store multiple debit cards on a recipient in order to transfer to those cards later.

Source objects allow you to accept a variety of payment methods. They represent a customer’s payment instrument, and can be used with the Stripe API just like a Card object: once chargeable, they can be charged, or can be attached to customers.
Stripe doesn’t recommend using the deprecated Sources API. We recommend that you adopt the PaymentMethods API. This newer API provides access to our latest features and payment method types.
