# Adds support for disabling payout methods

## What’s new

Adds the ability to [disable](https://docs.stripe.com/api/v2/money-management/payout-methods/disable.md?api-version=2026-08-26.preview) a [v2 Payout Method](https://docs.stripe.com/api/v2/money-management/payout-methods.md?api-version=2026-08-26.preview) for use in outbound money movement, which labels the [usage_status](https://docs.stripe.com/api/v2/money-management/payout-methods/object.md?api-version=2026-08-26.preview#v2_payout_method_object-usage_status) as `disabled` for `payments` and `transfers`.

## Why is this a breaking change?

A payout method can now show `disabled` as the `usage_status` for `payments` and `transfers`. If your integration doesn’t handle payment methods with this value, you might experience unexpected failures.

## Impact

You can now disable a v2 Payout Method to prevent using that payout method for outbound money movement. The resulting status is non-terminal, and you can re-enable the payout method  by creating a new [Outbound Setup Intent](https://docs.stripe.com/api/v2/money-management/outbound-setup-intents.md?api-version=2026-08-26.preview).
