Hi, there is not a deposit API. How long would you hold the funds?

@crystal quarry are you here?

@weary mica since the rental are between 1h to 14 days or more that’s the time span. I would like to tie it to the length of the booking.

For your business use case, I think you'd likely want to use this: https://stripe.com/docs/payments/place-a-hold-on-a-payment-method flow. You authorize and amount for a certain time, then capture the manual manually at a later time.

Thanks! 🙏

In your example, you authorize 120EUR, and then capture 100EUR later. It's still not ideal but it would eliminate you charging 120EUR, then having to issue a partial refund, https://stripe.com/docs/refunds later on.
