Payouts

Payouts renders the balance summary and a list of payouts for the connected account, including information about any upcoming payouts. If you enable the payouts component, connected accounts can also perform instant or manual payouts, or edit their payout schedule and external bank accounts. If Stripe is liable for a connected account’s negative balances, connected accounts can also proactively add money to their balance to avoid a negative balance and prevent business disruptions.

When creating an Account Session, enable the payouts embedded component by specifying payouts in the components parameter. You can enable or disable individual features of the payouts component by specifying the features parameter under payouts:

curl https://api.stripe.com/v1/account_sessions \
  -u "
sk_test_BQokikJOvBiI2HlWgH4olfQ2
:" \
  -d account=
{{CONNECTED_ACCOUNT_ID}} \
  -d "components[payouts][enabled]"=true \
  -d "components[payouts][features][instant_payouts]"=true \
  -d "components[payouts][features][standard_payouts]"=true \
  -d "components[payouts][features][edit_payout_schedule]"=true \
  -d "components[payouts][features][external_account_collection]"=true

After creating the account session and initialising ConnectJS, you can render the payouts component in the front end:

// Include this element in your HTML
const payouts = stripeConnectInstance.create('payouts');
container.appendChild(payouts);

Enabling Instant Payouts might require additional steps:

• If your platform collects fees for a connected account, you must set up Instant Payout monetisation in the Dashboard.
• If your platform is liable for a connected account’s negative balances, your platform must be in a supported country and the account must be in the same country as the platform and must be in the local currency.
• If Stripe is liable for a connected account’s negative balances, Stripe controls eligibility for the account.
