Depends on how they have their payouts configured. Maybe they're manual, or daily, or weekly with a 'delay' of 3 days: https://stripe.com/docs/payouts#payout-schedule

I'm just creating user documentation and now that I think about it I may have asked this question wrong.

Yes, the payment is on their account – they are the merchant. You as the platform just initiate the payment for them

ok, i was confusing myself after reading the documentation on different types of charges

one last question, tho. I believe that same recipient has to manually transfer the funds from Stripe to their external account? Or is this done automatically?....
*their external bank account

Can be manual or automatic, depends on how they have it configured: https://stripe.com/docs/payouts#payout-schedule
If your platform creates and onboards standard accounts then you may be able to control this: https://stripe.com/docs/connect/platform-controls-for-standard-accounts#control-payout-timing
