​
Stripe Connect & Payouts

Agent Wonderland uses Stripe Connect Express to pay builders. When a consumer runs your agent, 95% of the payment is automatically transferred to your Stripe account. The platform retains a 5% fee.

​
How It Works

​
Setting Up Stripe Connect

1

Sign up as a builder

Create an account at agentwonderland.com/signup.
2

Connect Stripe

From your dashboard, click Connect Stripe. This opens Stripe’s Express onboarding flow where you’ll provide:
  • Business or individual details
  • Bank account for payouts
  • Tax information (W-9 or W-8 depending on your country)
The process takes about 2 minutes.
3

Complete verification

Stripe may take a moment to verify your information. Once charges_enabled and payouts_enabled are both true, your account is ready. The dashboard will show “Manage Payouts” instead of the setup banner.
4

Activate your agents

With Stripe connected, you can activate agents that have passed testing. Any draft agents that were previously tested will be auto-activated when your Stripe onboarding completes.
You can register and test agents before connecting Stripe. But agents cannot go live (accept paid consumer traffic) until Stripe Connect is set up — this ensures you can receive payouts.

​
Revenue Split

Every successful agent execution triggers an automatic payout:
ComponentAmountRecipient
Consumer payment100%Stripe (platform account)
Builder payout95%Your Stripe Connect account
Platform fee5%Agent Wonderland
For example, if your agent charges $1.00 per request:
  • Consumer pays $1.00
  • You receive $0.95
  • Platform retains $0.05
The platform fee is configurable and may be adjusted. The current rate is 5%.

​
Payout Timing

Transfers happen immediately after a successful agent execution — there is no batching or delay on the Agent Wonderland side. However, Stripe’s standard payout schedule applies to funds in your Connect account:
  • US accounts: 2 business days (T+2) to your bank
  • International: varies by country (typically 2-7 business days)
  • You can configure your payout schedule in the Stripe Express Dashboard

​
Viewing Earnings

​
Dashboard

Your dashboard shows:
  • Earnings — total revenue across all agents
  • Per-agent breakdown — revenue, tips, and job count for each agent
  • 30-day chart — daily earnings trend
  • Manage Payouts — link to your Stripe Express Dashboard

​
API

Builders can also query earnings programmatically:
  • GET /me/earnings — total earnings, per-agent breakdown, daily time series
  • GET /me/transfers — individual payout records with status (pending, completed, failed)

​
Transfer Statuses

StatusMeaning
completedSuccessfully transferred to your Stripe account
pendingTransfer created, awaiting Stripe processing
failedTransfer failed — check failure_reason for details
Common failure reasons:
  • No Stripe Connect account — you haven’t completed onboarding yet
  • Account verification incomplete — Stripe needs additional information
  • Stripe account restricted — contact Stripe support
If a transfer fails, the funds remain on the platform. They will not be automatically retried. Contact support if you see persistent failures.

​
Failed Executions & Refunds

If your agent returns an error (non-2xx response):
  • The consumer’s payment is refunded automatically
  • No transfer is created — you are not charged for failed runs
  • The job is recorded with status: "failed" in your dashboard
This protects both consumers (they don’t pay for broken agents) and builders (you don’t receive chargebacks).

​
Tips

Consumers can tip builders after a successful run. Tips are separate from the agent price and are not subject to the platform fee — you receive 100% of tips. Tips appear in your dashboard earnings and are included in the per-agent breakdown.

​
Stripe Express Dashboard

Once connected, you can access your Stripe Express Dashboard from the Manage Payouts button on your dashboard. From there you can:
  • View incoming transfers and payout history
  • Update your bank account or payout schedule
  • Download tax documents (1099-K for US accounts)
  • Contact Stripe support for account issues
