Hi there, are your vendors registered as connected accounts in your platform?

twilit thicket Jan 13, 2023, 1:46 AM

#

Yes, express accounts specifically.

OK. You can access connected account's balance through Balances API https://stripe.com/docs/api/balance/balance_retrieve#retrieve_balance (remember to set Stripe-Account header so that you can make API calls on connected account. see https://stripe.com/docs/connect/authentication)

May I have a sec to look at this?

#

Ok, this is exactly what I'm looking for.

#

May I ask something else?

#

Sure. And you should also change the manual payout (https://stripe.com/docs/connect/manual-payouts) so that you can manually create a payout when you think the time is right.

Using manual payouts

Send manual payouts to your connected accounts.

Actually, this is everything I need. Thanks

Lastly, you might be interested in listening to balance.available event (https://stripe.com/docs/api/events/types#event_types-balance.available) so that you can automate the whole process and create a payout when the balance meets the threshold.
