Hold & delay charge transfer to connected account in stripe

Question

does anyone have used stripe connect? I want to have feature of hold & transfer charge amount to the connected account i.e. charge should be captured from customer, but keep it on hold for 3/5 days & then transfer it to merchant. Any information regarding how can i set it in stripe dashboard or through api endpoints would be helpful. Thanks!

Answer 1

You can set the delay_days of an account when creating it through the API. This is the number of days charges for the account will be held before being paid out: https://stripe.com/docs/api#account_object-payout_schedule-delay_days

The docs on payout schedules also discuss it in more detail:
