View Stripe transfers to reconcile payments received

Reconciling Stripe transfer payouts received to your bank account in respect of event ticket sales, online donations and booking charges is made easier using the Stripe Transfers report. This report can be found in the respective Calendar module, Giving module and Bookings module, with each module's report prioritising results based on the module you are viewing. The report respects the user's module permissions to ensure confidentiality of personal data where a user doesn't have permission for a module - for example, a user that has Calendar module permissions but doesn't have Giving module permissions can view the payout detail relating to event tickets but they are unable to see the payout details pertaining to individual donation amounts and givers - they only see an anonymised total of donations.

Transfers (Payouts)

The Transfers section of each report lists each transfer ID and the Stripe payout date to your designated bank account. It may take 2-7 working days for payouts to show on your bank statement, with the first transfer for a new Stripe customer taking between 5-10 working days. The Stripe transfer reference in the report will correspond to the reference shown on your bank statement.

Top Tip!

Within your Stripe control panel, you can manage the frequency of Stripe transfers, choosing monthly, weekly, daily or even on-demand. Select the Settings menu within the Balance area of your Stripe account.

Minimum transfer amount

Stripe transfers are subject to a minimum transfer volume of £1. This means that if you were to receive a card payment of £1, then after fees, this would be under Stripe's minimum transfer volume. A transfer will be made once further card payments have been processed, taking the transfer volume over the £1 minimum transfer volume.
