What's new?

We updated details.payout_totals and details.adjusted_payout_totals objects against transactions to include details about the Paddle fee rate and exchange rate applied to a payout for a transaction.

payout_totals object or null

Breakdown of the payout total for a completed transaction.

exchange_rate string

Currency exchange rate, including margin if applicable. 1.0 if the transaction currency matches your payout currency

fee_rate string

Paddle fee rate that was applied to this transaction.

adjusted_payout_totals object or null

Breakdown of the payout total for a transaction after adjustments.

exchange_rate string

Currency exchange rate, including margin if applicable. 1.0 if the transaction currency matches your payout currency

How it works

details.payout_totals and details.adjusted_payout_totals give you a breakdown of the payout total for a completed transaction.

To help you better understand how a payout total is calculated, we've added an exchange_rate field to the payout_totals and adjusted_payout_totals objects. This field shows the exchange rate applied to the payout total, including margin if applicable.

We also added a fee_rate field to the payout_totals object. This field shows the Paddle fee rate that was applied.

You can learn more about Paddle fees on the help center.
