How to Trigger an Instant Payout

You can trigger an Instant Payout in the Credit Cards section in Invoicing & Payments Settings. Just look for the Instant Payouts section:

Start Instant Payout

After clicking the "Start Instant Payout" button, Time To Pet will check to determine if you have connected a debit card to your Time To Pet Payments account. A debit card is required to trigger an Instant Payout. If no debit card is identified, Time To Pet will provide step-by-step instructions on how to connect a debit card.

If a debit card is already connected, Time To Pet will show you the balance available, the fee, and the amount sent to your account:

After clicking the checkbox agreeing to pay the fee, you can start the payout.

Additional Notes

Stripe only supports one payout account at a time. Instant Payouts are only available for debit cards (not bank accounts.) After an instant payout is processed, we recommend that a merchant add their bank account back (as it's more reliable than a debit card for standard payouts due to debit cards expiring or needing to be replaced). A merchant needs to verify ownership each time they change their payout account (either debit or bank account) by entering either the account number currently on file or the debit card number currently on file. Once confirmed, the option to switch payout accounts appears.
