Hi there 👋

No, if your account does not have the funds to cover the transfer then you'll receive an insufficient funds error.

The funds aren't immediately available for a transfer, but you can use the source_transaction parameter to specify the charge that the transfer is associated with and the transfer will occur as soon as the funds are available.

how would this work if i have multiple transactions that should at some point in the future generate a transfer?

#

"this" meaning the source_transaction

Apologies, I meant to link you to this doc in my earlier comment.
https://stripe.com/docs/connect/charges-transfers#transfer-availability

To clarify though, are you referring to multiple payments generating a single transfer?

#

yes, so people pay for different services through our platform, during a timeframe, and at some point we need to transfer x% of what we got to the service providers

#

so there will be multiple payments piling up, and then there should be some server action on our side that decides to transfer x amount to y account

Gotcha, in that case source_transaction won't meet your needs. You'd simply make a transfer once the necessary funds are available.
