First payout delays

Your first payout is typically available 7 days after you add your bank account and take your first successful payment on Stripe. This delay allows Stripe to mitigate some of the risks inherent in providing credit services.

This waiting period can be up to 14 days for businesses in certain industries, and up to 30 days in countries like Brazil. To see a full list of payout schedules by country and industry, visit this page.

Reserves

A reserve is a temporary hold on a portion of a business's funds, used by payment processors like Stripe to cover potential losses from disputes and refunds. The size of the reserve is based on the level of risk associated with a business, considering factors such as industry conditions, payment activity, and financial stability.
