There is not -- it's automatically applied to subsequent invoices for that customer, as documented:
https://stripe.com/docs/billing/customer/balance#details

The credit balance automatically applies toward the next invoice finalized to a customer.
You can’t choose a specific invoice to apply the credit balance to.
You can’t choose to not apply the credit balance to an invoice.

Thanks for the reply, I thought so.. but wanted to confirm. Are you aware of any kind of optional "gift balance" feature implementation with the Stripe API's?

[deft raven]

No not specifically -- if the customer balance doesn't behave the way you want it to, you'd need to track this in your own system (possibly reflecting eg current balance in your customer metadata).

[brittle atlas]

yep, that's the path we're going down. Thanks again!
