# Monetization Setup - Standard Flow

# Introduction

You can choose Standard Flow as a payment collection approach, meaning that you can manage payment collection yourself.

Providers handle payment collections offline using their preferred methods such as bank transfer or separate payment links. The payment collection operations are not processed on the platform and no fee will be charged per transaction. Approval steps can be enabled per API in Standard Flow if needed.

# Why to Choose Standard Flow

With Standard Flow, you can enable Subscription Approval to approve or reject users' subscription requests. You can let your API Users consume your API after receiving payment from API Users instead of starting a subscription automatically when API Users click the "Subscribe" button on your API Portal.

Standard flow payment collection operations are not processed on the platform and no fee will be charged per transaction. Therefore Standard Flow will save you the transaction fee.

The third-party payment collection platform we support is Stripe, yet it is only available for Hong Kong region. International users will have to choose Standard Flow as the payment collection method.

For more details about the transaction fee using Stripe, you may refer to FabriXAPI Payout Arrangement

TIP

Exciting news! We have expanded the currency options for configuring your API plans. This recent enhancement is specifically available when you choose the Standard Flow as your preferred payment collection method.
