To use debit card transfers, you will need to disable automatic transfers in your dashboard: https://manage.stripe.com/account/transfers
This will allow you to accumulate balance on your Stripe account so you can pay out to third party recipients.
Fees are the same as they are for bank account transfers. ($0.25 per transfer, $1 per failed transfer.)
We currently support transferring to Visa and MasterCard debit cards only. This does not include prepaid cards.
These endpoints mirror the customer card endpoints in terms of parameters. They will not change for full launch, but we will be adding a few convenience endpoints as well.
POST /v1/recipients/rp_xxx/cards to create a new card (same parameters/behavior as https://stripe.com/docs/api#create_card).
POST /v1/recipients/rp_xxx/cards/card_xxx to update card_xxx (same parameters/behavior as https://stripe.com/docs/api#update_card).
DELETE /v1/recipients/rp_xxx/cards/card_xxx to delete card_xxx (same behavior as https://stripe.com/docs/api#delete_card).
GET /v1/recipients/rp_xxx/cards to list all cards for the recipient (same parameters/behavior as https://stripe.com/docs/api#list_cards).
GET /v1/recipients/rp_xxx/cards/card_xxx to retrieve card_xxx (same behavior as https://stripe.com/docs/api#retrieve_card).
POST /v1/recipients with card information
POST /v1/recipients/rp_xxx with card information to update the default card.
There are three new webhooks: recipient.card.created, recipient.card.updated, and recipient.card.deleted.
POST /v1/transfers with a card parameter:
curl https://api.stripe.com/v1/transfers \
-u sk_test_012345: \
-d amount=400 \
-d currency=usd \
-d recipient=rp_XYZ \
-d card=card_ABC
-d "description=Transfer to test@example.com"You can use the test debit cards listed here: https://stripe.com/docs/testing

}If your recipient only has one card, you may omit the card parameter. However, if your recipient has both a card and a bank account, you will need to either pass in the card or bank_account parameter:
POST /v1/transfers with a bank_account parameter:
curl https://api.stripe.com/v1/transfers \
-u sk_test_012345: \
-d amount=400 \
-d currency=usd \
-d recipient=rp_XYZ \
-d bank_account=ba_ABC
