How to easily track your payments


🔹 1. How Do Stripe Payments Work with Bsport?

When a customer makes a payment for a service or subscription in your business, the funds are not immediately credited to your bank account. Instead, they go through a Stripe Connect account, which we manage for you.

💡 Bsport handles all Stripe transactions and organizes your payments.

⚙️ Payment Process:

1️⃣ The customer makes a payment (via credit card, Apple Pay, Google Pay, SEPA, etc.).

2️⃣ The funds are first received in your Stripe Connect account.

3️⃣ After processing and verification, the funds are scheduled for payout.

4️⃣ Stripe transfers the funds to your bank account according to the defined payment schedule.

📌 Important: Your customers' payments are not immediately available in your bank account. They must first go through Stripe’s processing and payout delay (explained below).


⏳ 2. Processing Times: SEPA vs. Credit Cards

💳 Credit Card Payments

Immediate processing

✔ After processing, Stripe applies a payout delay for security and fraud prevention.

🏦 SEPA Direct Debit Payments

Minimum 3 business days for validation

🔄 Funds are only available for payout after validation and payout delay.

💡 Example:

  • A SEPA payment made on Monday will be processed by Thursday at the earliest.

  • A credit card payment made on Monday is processed immediately but will only be available for payout after the defined payout delay.


🚀 3. Understanding the Payout Delay (Minimum T+3 Days)

Stripe applies a payout delay for security and fraud prevention on all online transactions. This means that a credit card payment will not be available for at least 3 days, just like SEPA payments (in addition to their own validation period).

Minimum delay: 3 days (non-reducible).

✔ This delay ensures that the payment is legitimate before releasing it.

✔ Even if you opt for daily payouts, this delay still applies.

🚨 Even with daily payouts, you will not receive a payout on the same day as the transaction.


📅 4. Choosing Your Payment Frequency

You can customize how often Stripe sends payments to your bank account:

Payout Frequency

How It Works

Best For

Daily Payouts

Available funds after the payout delay are sent daily

Businesses with high transaction volume

Weekly Payouts

Payments are sent every Friday and arrive on Monday

Most businesses

Monthly Payouts

Option to choose a specific day of the month

Long-term financial planning

💡 Weekly payouts are the most common, as they balance cash flow and processing times.


🔄 5. Which Transactions Are Included in a Payout?

A payout only includes transactions that have completed their Stripe processing period.

🗓️ Weekly Payouts - Example

If your payout is scheduled for Monday, it will include:

  • Transactions made from Thursday (previous week) to Wednesday (current week)

  • The payout is sent on Friday and received on Monday

Transaction Date

Included in Payout?

Thursday (previous week)

✅ Yes

Monday (current week)

✅ Yes

Friday (current week)

❌ No (included in the following week’s payout)


💰 6. Refunds & Disputes: Impact on Payouts

Refunds are automatically deducted from your next payout.

Disputes (chargebacks) are also deducted if lost.

If the balance becomes negative, Stripe will block future refunds until the balance is positive again.

📌 Example: Refund Deduction

  • Expected Payout: €1,000

  • Refund Processed: €300

  • Final Payout Amount: €700

🚨 If your balance turns negative, Stripe may suspend future payouts or request a bank transfer to cover the deficit.


📊 7. Tracking Payouts via the Bsport Back Office

You can check which transactions are included in a payout directly from your Bsport Back Office.

🛠️ How to Check Payout Details?

1️⃣ Go to Settings → Bsport Subscription.

2️⃣ Check the list of payments at the top of the page.

3️⃣ Copy the reference number below the payout amount.

4️⃣ Go to Reports → Payments.

5️⃣ In the filters section:

  • Click Current Year.

  • Click Add Quick Filter → Select Bank Transfer.

  • Paste the reference number.

You will see all transactions included in the payout.

🚨 If the reference number is unavailable, contact Bsport support.
