Settlements
Decide when Sabi sends your money to your bank
Take everything out yourself, or tell Sabi to do it every day, every Monday, or on the 28th. Set the least worth sending and the float to keep back for refunds, and the balance page tells you the date of the next one.

What you get
Your money, on the day you choose.
Daily, weekly, monthly or by hand
Pick the weekday, or the day of the month. The 31st settles on the last day of a short month rather than skipping it. Or leave it manual and take the money when you want it.
Keep a float for refunds
Hold an amount back so a refund the next morning does not need a transfer back into Sabi, and set a minimum so a small day's takings are not sent as a fee-sized payout.
Counted in your own day
A settlement day ends when the day ends in Addis Ababa, not in some other timezone, so a Monday payout is the Monday your customers had.
Set for the businesses you manage
A platform that onboards merchants through Sabi sets each one's schedule over the API, and every payout carries its own reference into the statement.
