Frequently Asked Questions
How do employee payouts work in ServiceFlow Pro?
Employees connect their bank account through a secure Stripe Connect onboarding flow. Once connected, businesses can send payroll transfers, and employees can request early commission payouts -- all processed through Stripe's infrastructure.
What is earned wage access (commission advances)?
Earned wage access lets employees request a portion of their accrued commission before the regular pay date. Business owners set the maximum advance percentage, auto-approval thresholds, and optional fees. The advanced amount is automatically deducted from the next payroll run.
Are there fees for instant payouts?
Standard payouts settle in 1-2 business days at no additional cost. Instant payouts (arriving in minutes) carry a 1% fee funded by the employee. There are no monthly platform fees -- you only pay per transaction.
Is employee bank information secure?
Yes. ServiceFlow Pro never stores bank account numbers. All bank account onboarding is handled through Stripe's PCI-compliant Express account flow. Employee financial data is stored and encrypted by Stripe, not on our servers.
Can each business manage its own employee payouts independently?
Absolutely. Each business on the platform has its own Stripe account and independently manages Connected Accounts for employees. Business owners control payout settings, approval workflows, and commission advance policies for their team.
Does this replace our existing payroll provider?
ServiceFlow Pro supplements your payroll by handling direct deposit transfers and commission advances. It integrates with your existing payroll workflow -- calculate pay in your accounting system, then disburse through ServiceFlow Pro's Stripe Connect integration.
