The payout object.

- object
  - `resource` string, required: Indicates the response contains a payout object. Will always contain the string `payout` for this endpoint.
  - `id` string, required: The identifier uniquely referring to this payout. Mollie assigns this identifier at payout creation time. Mollie will always refer to the payout by this ID. Example: `payout_j8NvRAM2WNZtsykpLEX8J`.
  - `balanceId` string, required: The identifier of the balance that will be paid out. Example: `bal_gVMhHKqSSRYJyPsuoPNFH`.
  - `amount` object, nullable: The amount to pay out. When omitted from the request, the full available balance minus any configured balance reserve is paid out. Merchants registered in the United Kingdom cannot specify a custom amount — omit this field to pay out the full available balance. The value in the response reflects the amount paid out, excluding any applicable fees.
