Fee charging per configured subaccount
Understand Escrow Account billing
The Escrow Account monthly fee is charged per subaccount while the feature is enabled.
Who pays is defined by isFeePayer in the Escrow Account configuration.
Who pays the monthly fee
isFeePayer | Charged to |
|---|---|
true | The subaccount itself |
false or not provided | The main account |
Subaccounts without the Escrow Account enabled do not generate this monthly fee.
To check the current prices for the feature, go to the fees page with a user authorized to view the account's fees.
Billing cycle
The first monthly fee is charged on the day after the Escrow Account is enabled for the subaccount.
After that, the fee is charged monthly as long as the feature remains enabled.

Attention
If the product is disabled after the Escrow Account fee has been charged, when you reactivate it, the next charge will occur in the next cycle, one month after the last fee charged.
If more than one month has passed since the last charge, the new monthly fee will be charged on the day after reactivation.
How to handle the fee in the integration
Record the isFeePayer value defined for each subaccount to reconcile the monthly fee in the correct account.
When changing this configuration or reactivating the Escrow Account, consider the cycle of the last charge to determine when a new monthly fee may occur.
isFeePayer is configured together with the other Escrow Account properties.
