Hi there!

#

The payout schedule of the connected account will define when the funds will be moved to their bank account.

runic cairn Jul 25, 2022, 10:02 AM

#

There's a button for connect account. When it is clicked the payout will occur

#

So any Api or suggestions?

solar crest Jul 25, 2022, 10:04 AM

#

There are two main option for the payout schedule:

automatic: it will be automatically sent to their bank at a regular interval (like every day or every week)
manual: it will be sent to their bank account when the platform use the payout API: https://stripe.com/docs/api/payouts/create

#

You can learn more about this here: https://stripe.com/docs/connect/manage-payout-schedule

$stripe->payouts->create([
'amount' => 1000,
'currency' => 'usd',
'source_type' => 'bank_account'
], [
'stripe_account' => 'CONNECT_ACCOUNT_ID',
]);

#

above function will payout from our account to Connect one?

solar crest Jul 25, 2022, 10:10 AM

#

Just to be clear, it's a 2 step process:

Transfer funds fomr the platform to the connected account
Then create a payout for the connected account

runic cairn Jul 25, 2022, 10:10 AM

#

Yea, I've done the first part, transfer money to connect account

solar crest Jul 25, 2022, 10:10 AM

#

But yes the code you shared looks correct.

runic cairn Jul 25, 2022, 10:11 AM

#

But confused about payout, like my connect account has some amount. and that needs to payout

runic cairn Jul 25, 2022, 10:11 AM

#

runic cairn $stripe->payouts->create([ 'amount' => 1000, 'currency' ...

this code says that I have insufficient balance in my account.

#

I want that the amount which is hold by Connect Account can payout to it's physical account when the withdraw button is clicked in my application.

solar crest Jul 25, 2022, 10:14 AM

#

this code says that I have insufficient balance in my account.
Can you share the request ID (req_xxx)? Here's how you can find it: https://support.stripe.com/questions/finding-the-id-for-an-api-request

runic cairn Jul 25, 2022, 10:17 AM

#

There's nothing in log, but here's the message that I receive. And this seems like My original stripe is sharing balance to connect account which is not the case I want.

solar crest Jul 25, 2022, 10:18 AM

#

Can you share the account ID of the connected account?

runic cairn Jul 25, 2022, 10:19 AM

#

acct_1LNFW3RmnZ3aT5K7

solar crest Jul 25, 2022, 10:20 AM

#

It looks like this account has no available balance, so it's expected to fail.

#

You can check that yourself by using this on the connected account: https://stripe.com/docs/api/balance/balance_retrieve

#

Also, depending on what you want to do, you could remove the source_type: "bank_account" from your request. But in this case it will still fail since you don't have enough available balance.

got it

#

another thing, when I'm creating the payout, balance retrieval, should I be using Connect account API key ?

turbid tendon Jul 25, 2022, 10:41 AM

#

you should be using your platform API key and the Stripe-Account header

#

https://stripe.com/docs/connect/authentication

runic cairn Jul 25, 2022, 10:44 AM

#

runic cairn

My apologies, I'm still confused that I have balance in this connect account and I'm unable to do the payout

$stripe->payouts->create([
'amount' => 100,
'currency' => 'usd'
], [
'stripe_account' => 'acct_1LNFW3RmnZ3aT5K7',
]);

turbid tendon Jul 25, 2022, 10:46 AM

#

can you share the exact JSON response you got from retrieving their balance?

#

do you have a specific reason for using 'source_type' => 'bank_account' by the way? Do you know what it means?

runic cairn Jul 25, 2022, 10:48 AM

#

$stripe->balance->retrieve();
this will give me my account balance, right?
I have to fix the connect account header for this?

turbid tendon Jul 25, 2022, 10:48 AM

#

yep. It's $stripe->balance->retrieve([], ['stripe_account'=>"acct_xxx"]) I think

runic cairn Jul 25, 2022, 10:49 AM

I'm just using snippets to test the APIs for now, this may work.

turbid tendon Jul 25, 2022, 10:50 AM

#

I don't understand your response , but to be clear unless you are actively using the legacy ACH integration (https://stripe.com/docs/ach-deprecated) there's no reason to use that source_type

runic cairn Jul 25, 2022, 10:51 AM

#

Got it, I removed the source_type.

#

{"object":"balance","available":[{"amount":0,"currency":"usd","source_types":{"card":0}}],"instant_available":[{"amount":510,"currency":"usd","source_types":{"card":510}}],"livemode":false,"pending":[{"amount":510,"currency":"usd","source_types":{"card":510}}]}

turbid tendon Jul 25, 2022, 10:53 AM

#

yep so you don't have available balance.

#

if you just did a charge today it takes a few days before you can pay it out(https://stripe.com/docs/payouts#payout-speed). In the meantime it will be in the pending balance

#

in test mode if you process a charge using the specific test card for this scenario the funds from that charge are available immediately and you can make payouts with them for testing of the manual payout scenario, if that's what you're looking to build.

#

https://stripe.com/docs/testing#available-balance

runic cairn Jul 25, 2022, 11:05 AM

#

Got it.
This is the scenario I did.

Created normal charge (ch_3LPOyODam180tPuS10J0L1U0) (using 4242 card)
Use that charge for transfer in connected account using source_transaction

Even for this scenario, I should do the available balance number?

turbid tendon Jul 25, 2022, 11:05 AM

#

yes

runic cairn Jul 25, 2022, 11:06 AM

#

got it, I'll run this flow

turbid tendon Jul 25, 2022, 11:06 AM

#

source_transaction doesn't really change this, it just means that the request to create the Transfer will succeed without having to wait for the funds in your own account to move from pending to available

#

but you still can't take the money out of Stripe with a payout until after the payout speed in the docs, when the balance becomes available

runic cairn Jul 25, 2022, 11:19 AM

#

roger.
and even if I'm providing source_transaction. I should also mentioned the exact values that needs to be transferred?
Like I have a charge ABC of $10. So, while creating transfer instead of $10 I insert $1 and source_transaction as ABC. Then only $1 amount will transfer to connect account, it'll not take the ABC amount?
Then, If I want to transfer the Exact charge amount, I have to insert the Exact value in transfer amount?

turbid tendon Jul 25, 2022, 11:22 AM

#

yep. Or just use Destination Charges(https://stripe.com/docs/connect/destination-charges) really so the transfer is created as part of the charge.

runic cairn Jul 25, 2022, 11:58 AM

#

yea, but it's like I want to have amount in my account then when everything is cleared then I'll transfer to connected account.

👋 taking over for my colleague. Let me catch up.

runic cairn Jul 25, 2022, 12:48 PM

#

Hi, Is there any way to have a subscription that can be less than daily basis for test purpose? Like subscription charge every 4 hours etc?

cursive oyster Jul 25, 2022, 12:51 PM

#

for testing you could use the test clocks

#

https://stripe.com/docs/billing/testing/test-clocks

Test your integration with test clocks

Learn how to move Billing objects through time in test mode.

#

as for your previous question, I'm sorry for the late reply but the idea is that you can always do the Charges and Transfers separately like so https://stripe.com/docs/connect/charges-transfers

Creating separate charges and transfers

With Connect, you can make charges on your platform account on behalf of connected accounts, perform transfers separately, and retain funds in the process.

thank you, looking into it.
