Payout reconciliation report
Reconcile each payout with the batch of transactions it settles.
The Payout reconciliation report helps you match the payouts you receive in your bank account with the batches of payments and other transactions that they relate to.
The payout reconciliation report is only available for users with automatic payouts enabled, and is optimized for users who prefer to reconcile the transactions included in each payout as a settlement batch. If you use manual payouts or prefer to track and reconcile your Stripe balance like a bank account, see the Balance report instead. To help you decide which report is right for you, see the guide for selecting reports.
Note
You control the timing and amount of instant payouts, so Stripe can’t identify which transactions are included in each payout. You’re responsible for reconciling instant payouts against your transaction history.
To get started, use the controls at the top of the screen to select a date range.
The Balance summary section shows your starting and ending Stripe balance for the selected date range, along with a high level summary of your activity during the period.
The Payout reconciliation section provides a breakdown of the automatic payouts that were received in your bank account during the selected date range. The transactions included in those settlement batches are grouped by reporting category.
The Failed payouts section provides a breakdown of failed automatic payouts, if any. This section is only visible if there are failed automatic payouts in the selected time range.
The Ending balance reconciliation section provides a similar breakdown of the transactions that hadn’t been settled as of the report’s end date.
Downloading data
You can download the data displayed in a section of the report as a CSV file by clicking Download in the upper right corner of that section. The Payout reconciliation and Ending balance reconciliation sections allow you to download multiple types of reports:
- Summary: This downloads data in CSV format exactly as you see it in the Dashboard.
- Itemized: This downloads the full list of individual transactions that are summarized in the Dashboard. You can include custom metadata associated with those transactions to speed up the reconciliation process.
In addition, you can download itemized data for a single category of transactions by hovering over that category and clicking Download.
Data availability
Stripe computes all your data on a daily basis beginning at 12:00 am. The data for each day is defined as account activity that takes place between 12:00 am and 11:59 pm. This data is normally available in reports by 12:00 pm on the next day.
For example, all account activity from 12:00 am to 11:59 pm on 16 September 2025 is available in the Payout Reconciliation reports tab by 17 September 2025 at 12:00 pm.
Payout reconciliation reports for automatic payouts can take longer to prepare, so the 12-hour SLA doesn’t apply in the following cases:
- First-time automatic payouts for users previously on the manual payout plan
- Automatic payouts that occur more than 180 days after the previous automatic payout
You can request reports for a partial day through the Reporting API, but reports in the Stripe Dashboard are always for a complete day.
Stripe also issues webhook events twice a day when the data for 00:00 UTC and 12:00 UTC becomes available for reporting. For more details, refer to the Reporting API integration pattern.
