Basic Concepts¶
How Do Payouts Work¶
-
The starting point is the creation of a request for payout (Payout Invoice) and indication all necessary payment details in the invoice. We validate data at the initial level and save the payout invoice as successfully created.
-
We forward request to the payout gateway where check the funds in the account. If the other requirements of the payment provider are met, the payout is accepted for processing. The invoice gets processed status.
-
During processing, Cascad automatically sends Callbacks to check the payment status. You get Callbacks with statuses via API to the Dashboard and the specified Callbacks URL.
-
Funds are written off from your currency account and credited to the recipient's account.
