Split payments & marketplace flow

Split payment

A split payment divides one incoming payment across several parties — sellers, partners and the platform's own fee — at the moment it settles.

A split payment takes a single payment from a buyer and divides it across several recipients — one or more sellers, the platform’s commission, and any partners or contractors owed a cut — so every party gets their exact share without a manual transfer.

How it works

  • The platform sets a split rule: a flat fee, a percentage, or a per-party breakdown.
  • The buyer pays once, and the money lands in one place.
  • The split engine allocates each share, pays it out, and records who received what.

Unlike a plain payout, the split is defined before the money arrives — the division happens inside the payment flow, not in a reconciliation the following week.

Why it matters

A marketplace rarely keeps the whole payment. Rebuilding who is owed what — across sellers, referral partners and your own take rate — is where platforms quietly lose hours and, when a partial payment slips through, money. Getting the split right at settlement removes both.

How Fynex does it

Fynex splits one payment across many parties at once, each in their own currency, by a standing rule or per transaction — and every split stays traceable back to your books. See split payments for platforms and payouts.
