Global Payouts Public preview

Send payouts to customers, affiliates, contractors, or other third parties in more than 160 countries.

If you need to send money directly to people or businesses that aren’t Stripe account holders, such as customers, contractors, or claimants, use Global Payouts to pay them in their local currency.

Use the Dashboard or Stripe-hosted forms to get started with little to no code, or build your own UI with the API for full control over the integration. You can also manage multi-currency balances that are eligible for the related setting insurance in the US.

Who uses Global Payouts

• Marketplaces that pay sellers, service providers and gig-economy workers
• Insurance companies that send fast auto, home and health claim payouts
• Fintechs that send loan payouts, cash-outs, investment withdrawals and peer-to-peer transfers
• Platforms that pay creators, affiliates, and contractors for ad-revenue shares, royalties and promotional work
• Businesses that send vendor reimbursements, refunds, trade-in credits and other reimbursements using an email address
• Government agencies that distribute financial aid, public claims and relief funds

Global Payouts is best for businesses that already hold the Money Transmitter Licence (MTL) required to move money themselves and want a payouts-only solution decoupled from payments. If you need to transfer funds to connected accounts in other countries, see Connect cross-border payouts.
