This guide helps users access the Escrow section and provides insights into Escrow-managed payments. The Transactions tab is active by default, allowing users to view detailed Escrow transfer data by clicking on any row. A scrollable modal displays transaction details and Escrow data, including transfer date, status, amount, and whether the balance is Committed or Escrow.Understanding Escrow-Managed Payments#
Course Types#
Live Courses: Can be configured with both one-time and recurring payment options. The user chooses their preferred payment method. This dual configuration ensures that even if a user selects one-time payment, recurring payment settings are available to handle fund transfers effectively through the escrow system.
On-Demand Courses: Automatically transfer funds upon payment (using Stripe's separate charges and transfers for consistency).
ā ļø Important: There is no escrow flow for on-demand courses as funds are transferred immediately to the teacher's Stripe Account. Payment Types#
One-Time Payment: Users pay upfront for the entire course.
Recurring Payment: Users pay a subscription fee followed by regular installment payments.
Transfer Logic for Live Courses#
š
Payment Frequency Options:Monthly: Payments occur once per month
Weekly: Payments occur once per week
Daily: Payments occur once per day
Recurring Payments#
The subscription fee acts as the first installment. A transfer document is created for the subscription fee with a Transfer Date:One month after the course start date if the frequency is monthly.
7 days after the course start date if the frequency is weekly or daily.
Installment Payments: Each subsequent installment payment triggers the creation of a transfer document, scheduled for:One month after the payment date for monthly frequency
7 days after the payment date for weekly or daily frequencies.
One-Time Payments#
When a user makes a one-time payment for a live course, transfer documents are created as if the payment follows a recurring model.
This means transfer documents will simulate the subscription fee and installment payments, aligning with the recurring configuration for the course. Transfer dates will be calculated in advance, spacing them monthly or weekly based on the course's recurring frequency settings.
š” Key Point: Even one-time payments for live courses follow the escrow system and create multiple scheduled transfer documents based on the course's recurring frequency settings. Accessing Escrow Section#
