hi! you can't access them after deleting them no. You also can not delete them if they still have any balance so I think your concern there is perhaps moot

#

What if we don't have balance but have volume, can we still track transfers?

fallow grotto May 31, 2023, 11:27 AM

#

I'm not sure what that means in terms of the API

#

what does 'having volume' mean?

mystic moth May 31, 2023, 11:32 AM

#

I mean they received transfers

#

then they will have a pending or available balance on their account and can't be deleted
https://stripe.com/docs/api/accounts/delete

Custom or Express accounts created using live-mode keys can only be deleted once all balances are zero.

#

So in this screenshot, 1st account which has volume but not balance cannot be removed?

#

Did you tried to remove that account and you got an API request failure ?

mystic moth May 31, 2023, 11:55 AM

#

No, I don't want to remove it before making sure I'll be able to track the user a transfer was made to if that user is removed

wet smelt May 31, 2023, 11:57 AM

#

If that account has pending balance then the API will throw an exception in all cases.
You can check that account balance via API:
