Embed financial services in your platform

Stripe Treasury is a banking-as-a-service API that lets you embed financial services in your marketplace or platform. With a single integration, enable your customers to hold funds, pay bills, earn yield, and manage cash flow.

How it works

Banking-as-a-service

We’ve partnered with banks to enable ACH and wire transfers, FDIC pass-through, insurance-eligible accounts*, and faster access to payments funds**, all within your platform.

Building blocks for financial services

const account = await stripe.accounts.create({ country: 'US', capabilities: { treasury: {requested: true}, issuing: {requested: true} } }); const treasury_account = await stripe.treasury.accounts.create({ account: account.token, currency: 'usd' });
const financial_account = await stripe.financial_account.retrieve({ id: 'fa_123', stripe_account: '{{CONNECTED_STRIPE_ACCOUNT_ID}}', }); //Financial Account Balances const availableBalance = financial_account.balance.cash; const inboundPendingBalance = financial_account.balance.inbound_pending; const outboundPendingBalance = financial_account.balance.outbound_pending;
await stripe.accounts.update( account.token, { payouts: { schedule: {delay_days: 0, interval: 'hourly'} } } ); await my_custom_event_handler( 'received_credits', (received_credit) =﹥ { await stripe.withdrawal.create({ description: 'Transfer 30% of credits to Capital repayment account', type: 'balance_transfer', account: treasury_account.token, amount: received_credit.amount * 0.30, currency: 'usd', payment_method_data: { account: capital_loan_account.token, } }); });
