Manual payout would be one way and Using Separate Charges & Transfers flow would be the other way where you only transfer funds to the connected account after the order has been fulfilled

Is there any way to get a webhook for when a transaction is no longer pending but available? That's my main concern with the manual payout way, I'm not sure how to find that out without sending an individual API call for each transaction in Stripe.

[stoic relic]

I believe we send balance.available webhook event when the funds become available

[untold prairie]

Will that event provide details of which specific transactions were made available?

[stoic relic]

No, that event payload contains a Balance object
https://docs.stripe.com/api/events/types#event_types-balance.available

[untold prairie]

So back to individual API calls then. Do you know if there's a limit to how long it can take to go from pending to available, where after that time I could assume it's available?

[stoic relic]

I think the availability varies by account type and the country it is in afaik. This doc might help: https://docs.stripe.com/connect/account-balances

Ah looks like we document your usecase here: https://docs.stripe.com/connect/account-balances#holding-funds

The recommendations are the same as I explained before
