Cross-border payouts

US only

Cross-border payouts enable you to pay sellers, freelancers, content creators, and service providers in their local currencies. You can transfer funds to connected accounts in other countries with your existing platform account and charge configuration.

Supported countries

Cross-border payouts enable platforms in the US to pay out to Express and Custom connected accounts in the following countries:

Banks in some countries have special requirements for payments received from outside their country’s borders. These countries might also have higher minimum payout amounts.

We also support Crypto payouts to select countries. To view additional supported payout countries, view our Crypto Payouts docs.

Stripe isn’t responsible for providing direct support for accounts on the recipient service agreement. However, the platform can reach out to Stripe for support for these accounts.

Restrictions and requirements

• The platform must be in the US.
• Connected accounts must be Express or Custom accounts.
• The platform must be the business of record. Consequently, destination charges with on_behalf_of (OBO) aren’t supported.
• Connected accounts must onboard under the recipient service agreement. That means transfers to recipient accounts take an extra 24 hours to become available in the connected account’s balance.
• US connected accounts don’t support cross-border payouts; onboard US connected accounts using the full terms of service.
• You can’t make cross-border Instant Payouts.
