Payouts & Balance Transactions API

Overview

The Payouts API allows you to track, filter, and reconcile money movements from Flex to your Shopify store. Using these endpoints, you can fetch payout records, filter them by date ranges, and drill into the associated balance transactions.

Reconciliation

Flex provides all the data you need to reconcile payouts with your Shopify records.

How money flows:

Customers transact on your Shopify store.
Flex processes the payment.
An order is generated in your Shopify Admin with a corresponding payment.
The payment amount, minus Flex fees, is deposited into your Stripe account.
Within 24–72 hours, Stripe settles the funds into your linked bank account.
