# Stripe Connect

Group: Payments

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

## Projects that use it

- [Creator community platform](https://venuspaneliya.com/work/creator-community-platform/): $10K+ a month in payouts
