Three requests. Three different states.

Northstar’s project has design, development and content work to pay for. Each request keeps its own source invoice and next step.

  • Lina Chen

    Northstar content

    $600 USD

    Processing

    The request has been submitted. Delivery has not yet been confirmed.

$3,600 + $1,800 + $600 = $6,000 requested. This is not a delivered total. Fees and any conversion are reviewed separately.

Collection and payout have separate decisions

A client paying an invoice does not by itself release a contractor payout. Review the funding available, the recipient details and the required approvals for that request.

After submission, follow the item status and reference. A return or failure needs its own review before another attempt.

What if the client payment is reversed?

A refund or dispute can arrive after a payout has moved. Agree the release conditions and who handles that follow-up before the first run.

Keep the original collection and payout references available for review. If a hold applies, explain its reason and next step to the contractor.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does client payment release the contractor payout?+
Client collection and contractor payout are separate steps. Review the available funding, beneficiary readiness and required approvals before releasing a payout request.
How do we know the payout arrived?+
Follow the item status and execution reference. Processing means the payment is still moving; wait for the delivery outcome before treating it as complete.
Which payout methods and currencies can we use?+
Your enabled provider route defines the available methods and currencies. Confirm recipient requirements, fees and delivery estimates for the program before release.
What does finance keep?+
Keep the source invoice, beneficiary, requested amount, fee inputs, current status, reason and execution reference with the payout record. Confirm the available export fields during setup.
