  title: Flutterwave Reuse Recipient Payout
  summary: Retrieve a saved recipient to confirm it exists, then send a transfer to it and verify the payout.
  description: >-
    A repeat-payout flow for recipients that were saved on a previous run. The
    workflow retrieves an existing transfer recipient to confirm it is still
    valid, initiates a transfer to that recipient, and retrieves the transfer to
    confirm its final status. Reusing a stored recipient avoids re-resolving and
    re-creating destination details on every disbursement. Branching on the
    transfer status lets the caller mark the payout complete or surface a
    failure. Every step spells out its request inline so the flow can be read
    and executed without opening the underlying OpenAPI description.
