When a payment is received or captured, Adyen sends a balancePlatform.transfer.created webhook to inform your server of the incoming funds and balancePlatform.transfer.updated webhooks after every status change. We send these webhooks for every split item in the payment or capture.
Example
In the example below, a payment is split at capture the following way:
EUR 70.00 sale amount is booked to your user's first balance account.
EUR 3.44 transaction fee is to your user's second balance account.
EUR 10.00 is booked to your liable balance account as your platform's commission.
