I am subscribing to the payout.paid event of stripe.
The payout object has the following object:
{
"id": "po_1H50scIkcSPJwVI7bFSQmBnV",
"object": "payout",
"amount": 1100,
"arrival_date": 1594782118,
"automatic": true,
"balance_transaction": "txn_1H2z37IkcSPJwVI7rVwkvfCT",

}
Ref: https://stripe.com/docs/api/payouts/object
I am able to get this event in my webhook but I am interested in getting the transactions "involved" in this Payout.
Let's say if the payout is of $100 and I have two products of $2 and $5 each, I need to determine how many of those transactions are there from each price.
Not able to find it in docs but from the UI we can do this by going to the individual payout from the payouts screen from the "export" button beside the transactions section header:
You'd use the "List all Balance Transactions" endpoint and specify the Payout ID there: https://stripe.com/docs/api/balance_transactions/list#balance_transaction_list-payout
That way you receive a list of all balance transactions that were a part of that specific Payout.

Unfortunately Stripe does not issue its own invoices for US accounts as per the following documentation:
https://support.stripe.com/questions/download-vat-or-gst-invoices-for-stripe-fees
Therefore it is harder to bulk reconcile processing fees and payouts in the US than in the EU.
Some accountants suggest to use the information summed up under Balances > Payouts > Payout (item)
It would indeed be convenient to collect the fees via the payout object however the API doesn't seem to include processing fees in:
https://stripe.com/docs/api/payouts
Here are some of the line items that our monthly Tax invoice contains in the EU:
Stripe Processing Fees
Refunded Fees
Dispute Fees
Dispute Fees Refunded
Chargeback Protection Stripe Fees
Radar Stripe Fees...
How to list all the fees charged by Stripe via API for accounting purpose?
The section about balance transactions contains all the relevant information. Furthermore all balance types are listed here.
Code example in php
$stripe = new \Stripe\StripeClient(
'sk_................'
);
try{
$transactions = $stripe->balanceTransactions->all(array(
'limit' => 100,
//'type' => 'stripe_fee',
));
}
catch(Stripe\Error\Base $e) {
//echo $e->getMessage();
}
Object Sample

"net": 369,
"reporting_category": "charge",
"source": "ch_1AznDOBVdKJBvdqlKp5lunlU",
"status": "available",
"type": "charge"
}
Note
Webhooks can be setup for all the relevant datapoints in order to fetch balance information.
If the type is "stripe_fee" get the amount directly from the field "amount" otherwise from "fee" or "fee_details"
If connected accounts are used the process also requires to use the connected "account_ids" for fetching data.

When integrating stripe payments (or stripe connect), stripe returns a Stripe::Charge object to the application after a payment has been attempted.
What is best practice for storing this information, that is, what fields should the application store in its database?
I think at an absolute minimum, the application should store:
the payment's id (so it can be looked up in the future),
the payment's status (so the app can know if the payment went through)
the app should obviously record which purchase the payment corresponds to
But there are many other fields in the Stripe::Charge object which seem quite important. However, storing everything could simply be completely unnecessary (overkill).
Here is an example of a Stripe::Charge object returned after a payment intent has been created:
{

}
So the simple, practical question: out of the above info, which fields should be stored in the application's database?
This entirely depends on the needs of your application and there is no universal answer. You can store all of it, none of it, or select fields.
The id is a good place to start, sure. If you were using Customers, you might want to store the associated customer id too. If you were using destination charges, you might want to store the related account. If you wanted to do some custom accounting you might store the amount and the fees.
It depends. Store whatever you like.
I've been attempting to use Stripe Instant Payout to go from charge to a payout in "mere moments" as documented here : https://stripe.com/docs/connect/payouts#instant-payouts
This has proved to be confusing and difficult.
I currently have a Stripe account with a "Connect"ed Stripe profile. I create the charge for the Connect user, (which has an instant pay valid card) and then I create the payout. When I go to payout, using the method here, it fails, saying the balance isn't available.
Why is this? The balance is in pending, but the docs state "You can pay out an account’s available balance plus its pending balance"
#Newah when you place a charge to a Stripe Connect account that charge is not available for payout immediately. You can check when the charge will be available for payout using the balance transaction object https://stripe.com/docs/api/balance/balance_transaction. You can also get this when retrieving a charge by expanding the balance transaction.

The charge will be available for payout on the timestamp set in available_on.
Is it correct to charge a source based on the event data's amount and currency? Sometimes I receive events like:
{

"verified_phone": null
},
"statement_descriptor": null,
"status": "chargeable",
"type": "card",
"usage": "reusable"
},
"previous_attributes": null
}
Notice amount and currency are null. Why isit null even when I have set the amount and currency when creating the source? I also notice its sometimes set correctly. Should I be relying on this properties set? Or should I be storing them in my DB? And store this transaction ID from DB into the metadata of the source for example.
UPDATE
I realized that this event is called when my frontend creates a 3ds source.
stripe.createSource(card).then(function (result) {
console.log(result.source)
})
I am alittle confused, the docs did say
When creating a 3D Secure source, its status is most commonly first set to pending and cannot yet be used to create a charge. In some cases, a 3D Secure source’s status can be immediately set to chargeable. This can happen if the customer’s card has not yet been enrolled in 3D Secure.
But I am using the test card, 4000000000003063 which requires 3ds verification. Why is it immediately chargeable?
status: "chargeable"
type: "card"
usage: "reusable"
The source you are creating is a regular card source, which is distinct from a Three D Secure source. That card source itself is chargeable, but if you try to charge it you will see that it will be declined because the card requires 3DS.
If the card source indicates that Three D Secure is required, then you need to use it to create a 3DS source and proceed with charging that instead : https://stripe.com/docs/sources/three-d-secure#create-3ds-source
Im running Stripe in test mode.
I've created a Yearly billing plan for 100GBP amount, with a 7 days trial ( directly onto Stripe dashboard. )
However, to test the webhooks i've hardcoded the trial_end:
$trialEnd = new DateTime();
$trialEnd->setTimestamp(time()+120);
$user = Users::find($this->user()['user_id']);
$user->subscription($stripe_plan['stripe_plan'])->trialFor($trialEnd)->create($data['stripeToken'], [
'email' => $this->user()['email']
]);
$user->save();
Basically all goes well, but into stripe dashboard the first invoice for 0 GBP is shown, and after one minute i get the Subscription will end in a minute event. After all, the subscription become Active ( from Trialing ) state.
All the webhooks and even the first subscription add reponse i get the trial ends period instead subscription ends.
How can i get the subscription_ends_at timestamp ?
All webhook requests are having the following timestamps:
{
"id": "evt_18baRrIzJLF7fe6PMDPYD0NM",
"object": "event",
"api_version": "2016-07-06",
"created": 1469558315,

"canceled_at": null,
"created": 1469558268,

"interval": "year",
"interval_count": 1,
"livemode": false,
"metadata": {
},
"name": "Full Club Membership - Pay Anually",
"statement_descriptor": "FULL MEMBERSHIP",
"trial_period_days": 7
},
"quantity": 1,
"start": 1469558268,
"status": "trialing",
"tax_percent": null,
"trial_end": 1469558384,
"trial_start": 1469558268
}
},
"livemode": false,
"pending_webhooks": 1,
"request": null,
"type": "customer.subscription.trial_will_end"
}
So if you look at trial_start and trial_end is same with current_period_start and current_period_end.
I've though initially that if this is the current period.. fine, but after trial expires the current period shouldn't be trials one.
There is any method to take the subscription_ends_at field from Stripe api ? And also, after the trial period ends, shouldn't send a invoice with the real amount ?
Also, i created a subscription plan with no trial period. That plan after a client subscribed, i get the correct timestamps.
Thanks in advance!
It looks like you figured it out. Basically, the delay comes from the fact that when the timestamp passes for your trial expiration, your request to create a new Invoice on that billing cycle gets added to a queue. Typically the queue will create the new invoice ~immediately, but it can sometimes go several minutes before triggering.
The first Invoice will always have timestamps for the current_period_* that map to the trial_period_* ones. Whereas, the second Invoice (that shows up with the invoice.created-event) will have the accurate timestamps for the billing period.
Oh, now i understand .. i will explain maybe will help someone :D.
Basically if a subscription got a trial period when you subscribe you will get a invoice for 0. Then, even if you set the trial to expire in 2 minutes with the request , the first payment will occur in about 10 minutes :D ( with that payment (if you set a webhook url) you will get a "type": "customer.subscription.updated" event who will contain all desired informations. At that time you can update your subscription_ends_at .
I didn't wait 10 minutes to see if the new invoice will be triggered.. and created -> removed -> recreated -> removed and so on for 4 hours with different tests.
