Plaid is just used to authorize the bank account. Once you have the token, you can use it for one-time payments as well as recurring payments as far as I know

Yes that's what I'm doing - exchanging the Plaid token to create a Stripe BA. It all works great but the BA is persisted (since I need to create the BA record to fetch it as a PM on a PI). Is there a way to specify a BA as one time so that it doesn't get persisted?

#

Or would I have to programatically delete the BA after the PI is paid out?

There is not, but you can try deleting the bank account after the first use: https://stripe.com/docs/api/external_account_bank_accounts/delete
