  • Regulated fund holding via escrow or a licensed provider

The team behind a short-term rental marketplace in France has hit the limits of Stripe Connect and is looking for another provider. The request was published in February 2026; the product is still being built, and the French registration is stated by the author.

The challenge - take a guest's card payment for a booking, sometimes up to 12 months before arrival; - hold the funds until the stay; - pay the host 2 days after check-in.

The long gap between payment and payout is the hard part: the author sees Stripe Connect's limits on holding funds and on the time between authorisation and capture as the blocker.

The model needed Funds must be held under a regulated model, by a licensed provider or in escrow, rather than in the marketplace's own account. Requirements: - card collection on the marketplace; - delayed host payouts; - integration with a regulated escrow or payment provider.

Geography The platform is French, but properties and hosts may be in several countries, which are not specified.
