Stripe Connect
Stripe Connect runs the creator platform’s payouts: $10K+ a month, automated. Payout state lives in the platform’s own database, with Stripe as the rail, not the record.
What I do with Stripe Connect
- Idempotent webhook handlers for every Connect event
- Payouts gated on fully verified accounts
- Dunning and retries for failed charges
