In simple terms, the sender is the person paying the money in a payout. It’s a bit more complex than that, though. It is not just payouts from the client’s client wallet - it can be from anyone. The reason we need a sender object is that some payout methods require certain details. You can supply those for each payout, of course, but it’s more convenient if you can save them to a sender profile, and that’s what the Sender object is all about. For your own company, you can have one sender profile for payouts in USD, another for payouts specifically to cards in EUR and so on. Let us know if you need any more help. Good luck with your project!
