Payouts

In this guide, you'll learn how to get real-time notifications when a payout is made within a user's account.

Use Case Overview

If you're building features for reconciliation, cash flow management, or financial reporting in your app, knowing when a payout is initiated in your merchant's account is essential for maintaining accurate financial data.

With Alloy, you can receive real-time alerts allowing your app to react to changes in your merchant's accounts.

Getting a Payout Alert

Let's build a simple workflow that sends a notification to your server when a payout is initiated in your merchant's account.

Navigate to the Alloy workflow builder. Click New Integration and search for Stripe.

On the Workflows screen, click New Workflow.

Next, select a trigger for the workflow. Search for Stripe Trigger in the list of connectors. Drag the Stripe Trigger into the Workflow UI and select the Trigger workflow when payout created action. Add this action to your workflow.

Next, use the Stream Data connector to stream the result from the Stripe trigger connector to your servers.

Your completed workflow should look like this:

You can use this information to update a user's financial records with you and also to alert them.

Wrapping Up

Alloy provides integrations with payment systems like Stripe, Square, and Recharge, enabling you to gain real-time access to transaction data when a critical event like Payout creation occurs.
