Bank Transfer and Manual Settlement API
Bank Transfer and Manual Settlement API
A bank transfer and manual settlement API for teams that need invoice-led receivables, hosted card fallback, and offline payment recording on one balance record.
Workflow Outline
Money may arrive outside Flint through bank transfer, check, or another offline process, but the invoice still needs to update on one receivables record.
The same customer-specific balance may need hosted card fallback and offline settlement depending on how the buyer pays.
Your product needs manual payment reversals and clear invoice balance transitions instead of tracking external settlement in a separate ledger.
What This Solves
Teams searching bank-transfer or manual-settlement APIs usually need a receivables workflow where money may arrive outside the hosted payment page but still needs to update invoice state, customer balance, and support-visible history correctly.
Offline payment recorded against an open invoice
Record a check or bank transfer directly on the invoice so collectible balance and support-visible state update together.
Hosted fallback after send
Offer hosted invoice card collection first, then record external settlement later without leaving the same invoice workflow.
Partial external settlement
Move the invoice to partially paid when an offline payment covers only part of the collectible balance and keep the remaining amount visible.
Reverse a mistaken manual payment
Undo an offline payment entry on the same invoice record instead of repairing separate receivables state by hand.
