How seller payouts and Stripe Connect work

Set up seller payouts, complete Stripe Connect verification, understand available balances, choose a bank or debit destination, transfer earnings, and troubleshoot payout delays.

The short answer: Open Payouts in the seller sidebar, complete Stripe verification, and add an eligible payout destination. Check the Stripe payout balance and payout report for available, pending, and paid amounts.

Before transferring

Understand payout availability

Seller order details record fees and proceeds. Stripe may show available and pending funds separately, and refunds or holds can change the amount eligible for payout.

First reconcile the 5% marketplace commission and 2.9% transaction fee using the seller fee guide. Then review recent order completion, refunds, holds, and prior transfers.

Stripe Connect

Connect and verify the payout account

  1. 1

    Open seller payout setup

    Open Payouts in the seller sidebar, then Stripe payout balance.

  2. 2

    Start Stripe onboarding

    Enter accurate identity, business, ownership, contact, and tax information requested by Stripe.

  3. 3

    Complete verification

    Resolve missing requirements until the connected account can receive payouts.

  4. 4

    Add a destination

    Add an eligible ACH bank account or supported debit card for the relevant currency.

  5. 5

    Return to EzBuyCo

    Confirm that Stripe shows the connected account as ready for payouts.

Verification is controlled by the provider EzBuyCo can open and display the connection workflow, but Stripe determines identity requirements, payout capability, destination eligibility, and some timing.
Transfer earnings

Choose an amount and destination carefully

Review the available balance and payout schedule in the connected Stripe account. If manual payouts are enabled for that account, review the amount and destination in Stripe before submitting.

A payout marked paid by Stripe can still take time to appear at the bank. Check Stripe payout details and your bank statement if arrival is delayed.

Troubleshooting

Fix common payout blockers

  • Payouts not enabled: return to Stripe and complete outstanding identity or business requirements.
  • No destination: add an eligible bank account or debit card for the payout currency.
  • Balance unavailable: review pending funds, holds, refunds, and Stripe verification status.
  • Destination rejected: confirm account ownership, routing details, currency, country, and provider eligibility.
  • Payout delayed: compare the Payout report, Stripe status, and bank posting before escalating.
Security

Protect payout changes

Limit payout access to trusted account owners, use a unique password, protect email and phone recovery channels, and review any notification about changed banking or identity information.

EzBuyCo support should never need your full online banking password, full card number, or one-time authentication code. Use the provider-hosted setup flow for sensitive financial details.

Common questions

Frequently asked questions

Why are Stripe payouts not enabled?

The connected account may have outstanding identity, business, ownership, tax, or payout requirements that must be completed with Stripe.

Why is my full seller balance not available for payout?

Stripe can hold pending funds, and refunds or verification requirements can affect payout availability. Check the connected account for the current status.

Who controls final payout arrival time?

Stripe and the receiving bank or debit network control provider processing and final posting after EzBuyCo sends an eligible transfer.
