[View source](/marketplaces/transfer-transactions/track-webhooks.md) When a funds transfer takes place between one of your user's balance accounts and a counterparty bank account, balance account, or card, Adyen sends a transaction webhook to your server. This webhook informs your server that Adyen has deducted funds from or credited funds to your balance account. [Transaction webhooks](https://docs.adyen.com/api-explorer/transaction-webhooks/latest/overview) can be used in combination with [Transfer webhooks](https://docs.adyen.com/api-explorer/transfer-webhooks/latest/overview) to stay fully up to date about the status of your transfers. While a transfer webhook is sent for every status change, transaction webhooks are only sent when the funds from the transfer are credited or debited from the balance account. ## Requirements | Requirement | Description | | ----------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | **Integration type** | You must have an [Adyen for Platforms](/adyen-for-platforms-model/), [Issuing](/issuing/account-structure-resources/issuing-enterprise/), or [Payouts](/payouts/payout-service/) integration. | | **[Webhooks](/development-resources/webhooks)** | Subscribe to the following webhook(s):- [Standard webhooks](/development-resources/webhooks/webhook-types#webhook-structure) - [Transfer webhooks](https://docs.adyen.com/api-explorer/transfer-webhooks/latest/overview) (optional) - [Transaction webhooks](https://docs.adyen.com/api-explorer/transaction-webhooks/latest/overview) | | **Setup steps** | Before you begin:- Make sure that your server can [receive and accept webhooks](/development-resources/webhooks/configure-and-manage). | ## Types of transaction webhooks The values returned in the transaction webhook can vary depending on the following factors: * Whether you are **sending funds from (outgoing)**, or **receiving funds to (incoming)**, the balance account. * Whether the transfer is **internal** or **external**. ## Sending funds (outgoing) Adyen sends webhooks for: * [Outgoing external transactions](#outgoing-external-transactions): Transactions that result from [payouts to your users](/marketplaces/managed-payouts). * [Outgoing internal transactions](#outgoing-internal-transactions): Transactions that result from [sending funds from a balance account to another](/marketplaces/internal-fund-transfers). ### Outgoing external transactions 1. You send a POST [/transfers](https://docs.adyen.com/api-explorer/#/transfers/latest/post/transfers) requesting a EUR 100.00 transfer to a transfer instrument. ** #### Outgoing external transfer request **Outgoing external transfer request** ```json { "amount": { "value": 10000, "currency": "EUR" }, "balanceAccountId": "BA00000000000000000000001", "category": "bank", "counterparty": { "transferInstrumentId": "SE00000000000000000000001" }, "description": "Your description for the transfer", "priority": "regular", "referenceForBeneficiary": "Your reference sent to the beneficiary of the transfer", "reference": "Your internal reference for the transfer" } ``` 2. After the transfer is [**booked** ](/marketplaces/payout-webhooks/#payout-transfer-booked), Adyen sends a [balancePlatform.transaction.created](https://docs.adyen.com/api-explorer/transaction-webhooks/latest/post/balancePlatform.transaction.created) webhook with the following information: | Parameter | Description | | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | [accountHolder](https://docs.adyen.com/api-explorer/transaction-webhooks/latest/post/balancePlatform.transaction.created#request-data-accountHolder) | An object containing information about the account holder that owns the source balance account. | | [amount](https://docs.adyen.com/api-explorer/transaction-webhooks/latest/post/balancePlatform.transaction.created#request-data-amount) | An object containing the value and currency of the transaction. | | [balanceAccount](https://docs.adyen.com/api-explorer/transaction-webhooks/latest/post/balancePlatform.transaction.created#request-data-balanceAccount) | The balance account that sends the funds. | | [id](https://docs.adyen.com/api-explorer/transaction-webhooks/latest/post/balancePlatform.transaction.created#request-data-id) | The unique identifier of the transaction event. | | [transfer](https://docs.adyen.com/api-explorer/transaction-webhooks/latest/post/balancePlatform.transaction.created#request-data-transfer) | An object containing information about the related transfer. | ** #### Outgoing external transaction webhook **Outgoing external transaction created** ```json { "data": { "id": "EVJN00000000000000000000000001EUR", "amount": { "value": -10000, "currency": "EUR" }, "status": "booked", "transfer": { "categoryData": { "priority": "regular", "type": "bank" }, "id": "3JNC3O5ZVFLLGV4B", "reference": "Your internal reference of the transfer" }, "valueDate": "2023-08-11T16:19:35+02:00", "bookingDate": "2023-08-11T16:31:02+02:00", "creationDate": "2023-08-11T16:19:35+02:00", "description": "Your description of the transfer", "referenceForBeneficiary": "Your reference sent to the beneficiary of the transfer", "accountHolder": { "id": "AH00000000000000000000001", "reference": "Your reference for the account holder", "description": "Your description of the account holder" }, "balanceAccount": { "id": "BA00000000000000000000001", "description": "Your description of the balance account" }, "balancePlatform": "YOUR_BALANCE_PLATFORM" }, "environment": "test", "type": "balancePlatform.transaction.created" } ``` ### Outgoing internal transactions 1.
