Integrate with Fifth Third BankBeta

Stripe collaborates with multiple bank partners to support its Global Payments and Treasury Network. We’ve added Fifth Third Bank as a new bank partner for Stripe’s Treasury product.

If you’re already using Stripe Treasury, this guide describes how to get started with Fifth Third Bank in your existing integration. You can create and maintain connected accounts that have financial accounts at both Evolve and Fifth Third Bank. By the end of October 2024, Stripe Treasury will support Treasury feature parity across both bank partners. You can use this guide to determine if and how to introduce Fifth Third Bank capabilities to your users.

If you’re launching with Treasury for the first time, see Get started with a new Treasury integration using Fifth Third Bank.

Stripe Treasury accounts structure

The overall structure of Treasury accounts remains unchanged. You can continue using Connect to maintain your existing platform account, along with a connected account for each of your users. Because each connected account represents a user, it’s associated with that user’s KYC and compliance information. As you enable additional Stripe products for each of your connected accounts (such as Payments with additional payment methods, Treasury, or Issuing), you can reuse that user’s information without needing to re-collect it.

Each connected account can create and maintain one or more Treasury financial accounts, each of which represents an FDIC insurance-eligible account. Treasury financial accounts are each created with one bank partner (historically with Evolve and now also with the option to use Fifth Third Bank). Each connected account can have up to three total financial accounts across bank partners, unless your platform has been approved for a higher limit. If you have a business reason for a higher limit, contact your sales representative or email us.

Each financial account on both Evolve and Fifth Third Bank can receive funds from the Connect payments balance, and can transfer funds to and from other financial accounts and external bank accounts.

You can use the same APIs with your Fifth Third financial accounts that you use with your Evolve financial accounts. The APIs behave the same, apart from a few key differences:

1. OutboundTransfers sent from a Fifth Third financial account over wire or ACH use later cutoff times than transfers sent with Evolve.
2. Stripe Payouts sent from the payments balance arrive into a Fifth Third financial account faster than payouts into an external bank account or an Evolve financial account.
3. You can use a new capability, treasury_fifth_third, to manage compliance for your connected accounts.

There might be additional near-term differences while we build Fifth Third Bank to parity with Evolve, such as an interim limit on received debit amounts.

Before you start integrating

Plan how you introduce Fifth Third Bank features

Consider how to introduce Fifth Third financial accounts into your product based on your business model and user requirements, and plan how you’ll sequence moving operations to Fifth Third Bank.

Feature availability on Fifth Third Bank

See the following table for the currently available Stripe Treasury features for Fifth Third Bank.

After releasing these features for Fifth Third Bank, we’ll develop additional features for Fifth Third Bank, including:

• Remote deposit capture for check deposit
• Same-day ACH for Outbound Transfers/Payments and Inbound Transfers
• Platform financial account at Fifth Third Bank
• Close financial accounts with Fifth Third using the API
• Create a CreditReversal

If you request a financial account Feature that hasn’t been released yet for Fifth Third Bank, Stripe returns the following error: “You cannot request {_feature_} on a financial account with bank fifth_third.”

Get access to Fifth Third Bank features

To request access, contact your sales representative or enter your email below.

Get access to Fifth Third Bank by updating disclosures

To access Fifth Third in test mode, contact your Stripe sales representative. To access Fifth Third Bank in live mode, you must submit the following to Stripe’s compliance team for approval. This must include:

• Any live or planned UX, or marketing that names a bank partner
• Updated the language wherever you reference FDIC pass-through insurance eligibility
• UX including user balances with disclosures, bank statements, and transaction history

You must send previews of your planned updates using the Compliance Intake Form. After Stripe’s compliance team completes the review, we’ll grant you access to Fifth Third in live mode. Then, you can publish your approved disclosures.

Bank partner disclosures

You must update any part of your current integration (including marketing assets, landing pages, other websites, dashboards, and so on) that displays a disclosure for existing bank partners to also include information about Fifth Third Bank.

If you intend to hold user funds at both Evolve and Fifth Third Bank, your disclosure must read: “[Company Name] partners with Stripe Payments Company for money transmission services and account services with funds held at Fifth Third Bank and Evolve Bank and Trust, Members FDIC.” If you only hold user funds at one bank partner, you can edit the above language to name the appropriate bank partner.

FDIC pass-through insurance eligibility disclosures

If you reference FDIC pass-through insurance eligibility anywhere with your existing integration, or if you plan to introduce new references, you must accompany that text with the following approved disclosure language. This language differs from our previous example. Update it accordingly.

Stripe Treasury Accounts are eligible for FDIC pass-through deposit insurance if they meet certain requirements. The accounts are eligible only to the extent passthrough insurance is permitted by the rules and regulations of the FDIC, and if the requirements for pass-through insurance are satisfied. The FDIC insurance applies up to 250,000 USD per depositor, per financial institution, for deposits held in the same ownership capacity.

Learn more about FDIC disclosures.

Update your product user interface to show multiple partners

Balances

In your product user interface, disclose each balance separately when a user has balances at two bank partners (for example, the old partner and Fifth Third Bank). Ensure users can clearly see which bank is associated with each balance. If you’re certain that one balance will always be 0 USD, consult internal counsel and compliance to decide whether or how to display that balance. Make it clear to users how many financial accounts they have open, which institutions hold these accounts, and if they have a balance over 0 USD.

You must provide a specific disclosure for each individual balance, indicating which bank holds the balance. This ensures that the Connected Account is aware of their potential insurance limits at each bank.

Transaction history

You can maintain a single transaction history per connected account, but you must display information for both financial accounts (such as transaction activity, opening and closing balances, fees, yield, and so on). If you offer a single inclusive transaction history, make sure that it’s clear to the user which financial account is associated with each transaction.

If you enable ABA forwarding, you must allow the connected account to view all three transaction receipts involved in each forwarded transaction, not only one transaction receipt. You can generate these receipts using Stripe’s hosted regulatory receipts. By doing this, you can represent each forwarded transaction once, not individually as three transactions.

Learn about sequencing the move of operations to Fifth Third and maintaining two bank partners simultaneously.

Statements

You must either show one statement that includes all financial account balances and transactions or provide multiple statements, one for each financial account. This applies as long as both financial accounts are open and have at least one transaction in the month.

Test mode

You must use the same live mode APIs for Fifth Third Bank as you use for Evolve. As a result, Fifth Third Bank differs from Evolve in only three areas in test mode:

• When you create a financial account with Fifth Third Bank in test mode, you can specify features[financial_addresses][aba][bank]="fifth_third". All test mode financial accounts receive addresses with Stripe Test Bank instead of a specific real bank partner like Fifth Third Bank. Money movement flows behave the same for all test mode accounts.
• You can request the new treasury_fifth_third capability in test mode.
• You can test ABA forwarding in test mode.

Platform financial account

Your platform’s financial account remains open at Evolve. For now, we won’t open a second platform financial account at Fifth Third Bank. However, we plan to introduce this within a few months. Until then, instantly transfer funds from your platform financial account at Evolve to your connected accounts’ financial accounts at Fifth Third Bank using Stripe network transfers.

Request Fifth Third Bank access for new or existing connected accounts

Use POST /v1/accounts to create a new connected account. To enable the account to use Stripe Treasury, request the following required capabilities for the account:

• transfers (required for all connected accounts)
• treasury (required for your Treasury integration)
• treasury_fifth_third (new and required for Fifth Third Bank access)
• Continue to request the same capabilities you currently request.

When you request capabilities, the requirements.currently_due hash on your connected account’s Account object populates with the requirements that must be fulfilled to enable the capabilities. If the connected account already provides fields, Stripe reuses them without requiring resubmission. You can continue to use either hosted onboarding or the Stripe API to collect fields.

If you already have a connected account with Treasury enabled, use POST /v1/accounts/{{CONNECTED_ACCOUNT_ID}} to update the account with the associated ID with a request for the treasury_fifth_third capability.

Requesting the treasury_fifth_third capability doesn’t require any new fields compared to the treasury capability. However, Fifth Third Bank access requires either a URL or a product description that’s at least 10 characters. This differs from the treasury capability, which has no minimum character requirements for the product description. Therefore, if the connected account hasn’t provided a URL and has a product description shorter than 10 characters, you must provide a URL or update the product description to meet the 10-character minimum. Preview the treasury_fifth_third capability on each live connected account to make sure that there are no additional requirements for that account.

The following two fields help you confirm that each connected account is supportable for Stripe:

1. URL: Provide a URL to ensure the highest chance that your connected account is approved for supportability. Stripe reviews each connected account’s URL to make sure it qualifies as a supportable business. We recognize legitimate cases where a connected account doesn’t have a URL (for example, it isn’t an online business or hasn’t launched a website yet), so a URL isn’t strictly required by the Accounts requirements hash, and we won’t block access to the treasury_fifth_third capability if the connected account can’t provide a URL. However, we expect you to provide a URL if one is available, and we’ll perform manual compliance reviews to make sure that you collect URLs. A URL is already a requirement for the card_payments and us_bank_account_ach_payments capabilities, meaning you might already collect a URL if you request either of these capabilities.

2. Product description: If you don’t submit a URL, we assess the product description field to determine if we can support your connected account, which must be 10 characters or longer. If an existing connected account has no URL and a product description under 10 characters, you must provide a longer description to gain access to Fifth Third. We recommend guiding connected accounts to submit a product description that reflects the purpose of opening a Treasury financial account and its intended use. We rely on this description for ongoing account reviews, so a description minimizes the likelihood of restrictions or other issues with the financial account. As a best practice, make sure that descriptions meet a 30-character minimum.

You can submit product descriptions or any other requirements ahead of time, or wait until the user switches operations to Fifth Third. Requesting the treasury_fifth_third capability before then won’t affect your users’ live Payments or Treasury business operations.

After you fulfill all requirements for both the treasury_fifth_third and treasury capabilities, you can use your connected account to create financial accounts at Evolve and Fifth Third Bank.

Check the status for a connected account’s access to Fifth-Third

As your connected accounts onboard onto Fifth Third, Stripe will review each connected account to make sure that it’s a supportable use case. Your users might need to provide additional information, such as proof of licenses for their industry. Based on the information they provide, Stripe might not support the account. After you fulfill requirements for the treasury_fifth_third capability, the capability’s status changes, and we provide the capability.updated event. If it has an active status, the connected account can immediately begin creating Fifth Third Bank financial accounts.

If the capability has a status of either pending or inactive, Stripe uploads a file to the Documents section in your Dashboard with each connected account, its status, and next steps. This is an interim process until Stripe enables follow-up actions directly from the Stripe Dashboard and the API.

The uploaded file includes one record for each connected account. The file includes both an “Account Status” and a "Status Description,” and provides an explanation and next steps. Below are the possible explanations and next steps you might see:

• Under review: This account is still being assessed by Stripe and isn’t ready for migration yet.
• The account is missing information: This account can’t be cleared yet because it’s missing a product description or doesn’t have a working URL.
• The account isn’t eligible for migration: The account is a prohibited business and the Fifth Third Bank Treasury capability can’t support it.

If we identified the account as “Not Eligible for Migration,” we also include the business category and sub-category assigned by Stripe. This helps you understand why Stripe has blocked the migration because the account falls under either Stripe Treasury’s prohibited and restricted business list or Stripe’s prohibited and restricted business list. Contact us if you have any questions.

Troubleshoot compliance plan error codes

When you request the treasury_fifth_third capability for your platform’s connected accounts, you must provide a URL or a product description to establish the supportability of your connected account using Fifth Third Bank. If you submit a URL, you might encounter error codes.

• invalid_url_format: The format of the URL you submitted is incorrect or a string. Update the URL to a valid format (for example, .com or .org).
• invalid_url_denylisted: This indicates that the submitted URL is on a Stripe “denylist.” Reach out to us for support.
• invalid_url_website_inaccessible: The URL you submitted might be password protected. Your connected account’s website must be accessible to allow supportability assessments.
• invalid_url_website_incomplete: The URL you submitted returns a 404 status error code.
• Invalid_url_website_other: If Stripe returns this error, reach out to us for support.

If the URL field continues to return errors or you can’t remediate it with your connected account, submit a product description instead.

Create financial accounts at Fifth Third Bank

Create a FinancialAccount

To create a new FinancialAccount at Fifth Third Bank for a connected account with the required capabilities active, use POST /v1/treasury/financial_accounts and include the connected account ID as the value of the Stripe-Account header of the call.

Specify features[financial_addresses][aba][bank]="fifth_third" when creating the financial account to make sure that it’s not created at Evolve. After you create the financial account, you can’t change its bank partner.

Until externally addressable accounts at Fifth Third Bank become available in October, you must also specify features[financial_addresses][aba][requested]="false" for your financial accounts. After they’re available, request an externally addressable account number and routing number (financial_addresses.aba) by specifying features[financial_addresses][aba][requested]="true".

To create a Fifth Third financial account for a connected account, make sure that the connected account doesn’t have a financial account with a negative balance. To avoid a 404 error, all financial accounts must contain a balance of 0 USD or higher.

You can request the same features on the Fifth Third financial account that you’ve requested on your Evolve financial accounts, including outbound_transfers, outbound_payments, and other features. If you request a financial account Feature that hasn’t been released for Fifth Third Bank yet, Stripe returns the following error: “You cannot request {_feature_} on a financial account with bank fifth_third.”

Update, retrieve, and close a FinancialAccount

There are no changes to the APIs used to update a financial account and retrieving fields. For more information, see Working with financial accounts. You can close an Evolve financial account using the API. Until we support the ability to close a Fifth Third financial account using the API, you can contact us to close your financial account.

FinancialAccount webhooks

We support all financial account webhooks, including:

• account.updated
• treasury.financial_account.created
  • Triggered whenever a new FinancialAccount is created.
• treasury.financial_account.closed
• treasury.financial_account.features_status_updated
  • Indicates that one or more Features have changed status. This is reflected in changes to the active_features, pending_features or restricted_features arrays.

Moving money with Fifth Third financial accounts

Overview of money movement

Stripe Treasury offers many types of money movement in and out of financial accounts. You can categorize each transaction type in four ways:

• Credit or debit: A credit is an instruction to send money out of an account and decrease assets, while a debit is an instruction to receive money into an account and increase assets.
• Received or originated: This specifies whether the credit versus debit is applied to the financial account (received) or to the other party’s account (originated). For example, an originated credit sends money out of the financial account, lowering the balance, while a received credit brings money into the financial account, increasing the balance.
• Rail: Each type of money movement is supported by one or more rail, such as ACH, wire, Stripe network, check, and Issuing transactions.
• (Optional) Funds in or funds out: This is an optional way to specify whether money leaves or enters a financial account.

Stripe Treasury money movement APIs

The following table describes the available Stripe Treasury money movement APIs.

Originate Transactions for the financial account

Originate a credit with an OutboundTransfer or OutboundPayment

To move funds out of a Fifth Third financial account, you can create an OutboundTransfer to send funds between two accounts with the same owner, or OutboundPayment to send funds between different account holders.

You can transfer funds to another financial account owned by your platform using the Stripe network. Funds arrive within an hour. To send over the Stripe network, you must enter a financial account ID into the destination_payment_method_data field instead of an account and routing number.

Alternatively, you can instruct Stripe to send the transaction using wire or ACH. If you submit before the published cutoffs, you’ll receive tracking information by the end of the day when you originate a wire. Depending on the destination bank and the time of submission, our bank partner might send domestic wire transfers over either FedWire or CHIPS network. If you originate a wire out of a financial account at Evolve, it’s sent using FedWire. If you originate a wire out of a financial account at Fifth Third Bank, it’s sent using CHIPS provided the receiving bank accepts CHIPS and the wire is sent during CHIPS operating hours; otherwise, it’s sent using FedWire.

For wires sent using FedWire, locate the IMAD and OMAD fields in the tracking_details[us_domestic_wire][imad] and tracking_details[us_domestic_wire][omad] fields.

For wires sent using CHIPS, locate the transfer’s System Sequence Number in tracking_details[us_domestic_wire][chips]. You can share these IDs with the receiving bank to track the wire transfer’s status.

If you submit ACH transactions before the published ACH submission window cutoffs, you’ll typically receive tracking information from your bank by the end of the day.

The originated wire and ACH cutoff timing with Fifth Third Bank is extended later than the Evolve timeline:

If you submit transfers shortly after the cutoff, they might still be processed that evening, but it’s not guaranteed.

By the end of October 2024, financial accounts will receive an externally addressable account and routing number. Until then, recipients see originated transfers from a central Stripe-owned originating account (with the 042000314 routing number). These transfers will function as expected, with a custom descriptor for providing context about the originator. After financial accounts receive their own account and routing number, transfers will display these details.

For more information about these APIs, see OutboundTransfers and OutboundPayments.

Originate a debit with an InboundTransfer

You can originate debits using InboundTransfers. InboundTransfers are always originated using ACH and are subject to Originated Transaction submission cutoffs.

Payouts from Stripe payments

If you or your connected accounts use Stripe Payments, you can send acquired funds into your Fifth Third financial account using the standard Payouts APIs. You can continue using your current payout setup, and switch to pay out into Fifth Third financial accounts by following the instructions below.

When you create payouts without accelerating access to pending funds, transferring funds into Fifth Third financial accounts results in faster payout speeds compared to Evolve financial accounts or external bank accounts.

Decide whether you want to set up an automatic payout schedule or only create manual payouts, and whether to accelerate access to pending funds:

• Automatic or manual: You can set up an automatic payout schedule for a connected account to pay out funds daily or on another cadence. You can also create manual payouts at any time with an automatic payout schedule. Automatic payouts always populate the reconciliation_status on the Payout object and trigger the corresponding payout.reconciliation_completed event; however, manual payouts don’t.
• Standard or accelerated access: You can accelerate access to pending card funds to pay out in either a manual or an automatic payout. When you acquire card payment volume, funds typically become available in the balance two business days after funds are received. You can pay to accelerate access, by either creating an instant manual payout (method=instant), or setting a connected account to an accelerated automatic payout schedule (delay_days=1), associated with respective fees. This won’t accelerate access to pending funds from ACH or other payment methods, only cards.

To accelerate access to funds, you must obtain a one-time platform credit risk approval if you haven’t already enabled accelerated or instant payouts with Stripe. Enabling accelerated payouts might increase your platform risk by allowing connected accounts to withdraw funds more quickly. To access this feature for cards or for ACH, contact your sales representative.

Payout timing improvements

Payouts that you create into Fifth Third financial accounts arrive faster than payouts sent to external bank accounts or to Evolve financial accounts.

Manual payout options

You have two options for manual payouts: standard and instant.

• Standard manual payouts: These only include settled payments funds, not pending payments funds. Settled funds are expected to arrive within a few hours, meaning that new card payments arrive in approximately 1-2 days after pay-in capture. This timing is an improvement compared to payouts into Evolve financial accounts or external bank accounts, where settled funds arrive approximately 1 day after the payout request or 2–3 days after pay-in capture. Stripe doesn’t guarantee precise payout timing.

• Instant manual payouts: These draw from both pending and settled funds. When you acquire card payment volume, funds typically become available in the balance two business days after funds are received. Other payment types, such as ACH payments, take longer. Funds are pending until they’re available. When you create an instant manual payout, you can include all funds in the instant_available balance. Instant manual payouts are expected to arrive within a few hours, which is the same behavior for Fifth Third financial accounts as for Evolve financial accounts or external bank accounts.

If your platform isn’t enabled for faster payouts and you’re interested in adding this ability, contact your sales representative or email us.

Automatic payout options

You can optionally set up an automatic payout schedule for each connected account. Stripe creates payouts on a specified cadence (such as daily) for all funds that are made available, and sends the funds to your specified external bank account (such as the financial account).

You can control the speed of your automatic payouts by setting two parameters on settings.payouts.schedule:

• interval: You can define how frequently funds are paid out. You can set this to daily, weekly, or monthly. Alternatively, you can set this to manual, which disables automatic payouts in favor of manual payouts only.
• delay_days: If your business is based in the US, you can define the number of business days that charges are pending before they’re made available for standard payouts. The default is 2 days. You can set a higher number to lower risk or a lower number to accelerate access to pending funds.

You can set intervals to daily and delay_days=2, in which case funds arrive approximately 1–2 business days after pay-in capture. This timing is an improvement over the current process with Evolve, where funds would arrive 2–3 days after pay-in capture.

You can accelerate access by setting interval to daily and delay_days=1, in which case funds arrive approximately 1 business day after pay-in capture. If you’re interested in funds arriving on non-business days, contact your sales representative.

Use POST /v1/accounts/{{CONNECTED_ACCOUNT_ID}} to update the payout schedule.

Update payouts to use a Fifth Third financial account

Set up a financial account for payouts

Before you can send payouts to a Treasury financial account or receive top-ups from a Treasury financial account, you must set the financial account as an external account (BankAccount object) connected to the relevant Stripe account. You now have the option to set up an external account by specifying the financial account id. You must also request the intra_stripe_flows feature on your Financial Account.

• Platform accounts: Use the Stripe Dashboard to create a BankAccount object you can use for payouts from, or top-ups to, your platform account.
• Connected accounts: Use POST /v1/accounts/{{CONNECTED_ACCOUNT_ID}}/external_accounts to specify the new financial account id in the financial_account parameter to create a BankAccount object you can use for payouts from a connected account

curl https://api.stripe.com/v1/accounts/acct_xxx/external_accounts \

  -d "external_account[object]"=bank_account

Stripe returns the following:

{
 "id": "ba_xxx",
  ...
}

Create a manual payout

After you set up your new Fifth Third financial account to have a bank account id, call POST /v1/payouts to specify the destination parameter value as the new bank account id.

Update an automatic payout setup

If you have connected accounts on your platform with an automatic payout schedule, you can send payouts to their new Fifth Third financial account. Set the default_for_currency parameter to true on the external account you created for the Fifth Third financial account.

Payout reversals

You can create payout reversals for payouts into financial accounts with an active ABA feature.

Receive Transactions into the financial account

Receive a credit from an existing FinancialAccount

To move funds from an existing financial account into a Fifth Third financial account, create an OutboundTransfer or OutboundPayment from the existing financial account. If you enter a Fifth Third financial account ID in the destination_payment_method_data for an OutboundPayment, the transaction is sent over the Stripe network.

  -d "destination_payment_method_data[description]"="OutboundTransfer to my Fifth Third financial account"

Receive a credit or debit from an external source

In October, Fifth Third financial accounts will receive externally addressable account and routing numbers (VBAN) after you request and enable the financial_addresses.aba feature. Your connected accounts can share the account and routing numbers for their Fifth Third financial account to received credits (wire and ACH) and received debits (ACH) from external parties. They will also be able to use microdeposits to authenticate with the account.

You can initiate reversals for debits by creating a DebitReversal. You must create a DebitReversal within 24 hours; however, we’ll extend this window in the coming months. Until we support CreditReversals, email Stripe support to reverse a credit.

Issue cards on a Fifth Third financial account

Your Issuing integration will remain unchanged, and you won’t need to reissue cards to your users. You’ll have the ability to redirect existing cards from current financial accounts to the new Fifth Third financial accounts without affecting users. This is new functionality, and currently isn’t possible.

You can update your existing card to switch from being funded by an existing financial account to a new Fifth Third financial account:

You can migrate a card by updating it with a new financial account ID:

curl https://api.stripe.com/v1/issuing/cards/ic_xxx \
  -u "
sk_test_4eC39HqLyjWDarjtT1zdp7dc
:" \
  -d financial_account=fa_xxx

Stripe returns the following response:

{
  "id": <card Id>,
  "object": "issuing.card",
  "financial_account": <new Financial Account Id>,
  ...
}

Authorizations will remain associated with the same financial account, even if the card is redirected to a different financial account. If there are further card events, they will impact the original financial account’s balance. For example, incremental authorization requests can occur up to 30 days later, depending on the spend category. To avoid unintended declines, we recommend using ABA forwarding. Learn more about setting up ABA forwarding during your migration.

You can also issue new cards that draw from a Fifth Third financial account by specifying the new financial account ID when creating a card.

You can create a Fifth Third financial account and request the card_issuing feature:

Your complaints tracking process has one update. After adding Fifth Third Bank, the complaint_channel field for each complaint includes the following new channels:

• Employee
• Executive
• Filer On-Behalf Of
• Bancorp Incident
• Consumer Reporting Agency
• Fed
• CFPB
• BBB
• Board of Directors
