Control how funds flow

Connect supports almost any type of money movement you can dream up. Pay out users quickly and reduce operational overhead with Connect’s global routing and payout engine. You can split funds between multiple users, instantly route payments across borders, and specify your earnings on each transaction.

Sellers collect payments

Buyers transact with sellers, often unaware of the platform's existence. The platform may take fees from the transaction. Example: A buyer makes a purchase from a store that is built on Shopify’s platform.

Platform collects payments

Buyers transact with the platform, which transfers funds to the seller after collecting its platform fees. Example: A buyer books a ride using the Lyft app. Part of each charge is transferred to the Lyft driver.

Split payouts between sellers

A buyer makes a purchase and the platform transfers different amounts from the charge to multiple sellers. Example: ClassPass splits funds from memberships among its network of fitness studios and gyms.

Top-ups

A platform funds its Stripe balance from a bank account to send transfers not tied to a charge made on Stripe. Example: A platform tops up its Stripe balance to discount its service to buyers while still paying its sellers or service providers in full.

Payouts

A platform sends funds, unlinked to incoming payments, to their seller or service provider’s bank account or debit card. Example: Cozy sends money to its landlords, funded by its bank account.

Instant Payouts

A seller can move funds from their balance to their bank account or debit card instantly. Example: Instacart shoppers can get paid within minutes of a completed delivery.

Subscriptions

A platform allows its sellers to collect a recurring charge from buyers. Example: Blackbaud enables its non-profits to accept recurring donations.

Account debits

A platform transfers funds from its sellers or service providers to its own Stripe balance. Example: A platform pulls funds from its users to cover dispute fees.
