The following table describes the conditions that trigger each kind of webhook.
Notification Type
Description
disbursement

disbursement_exception
Braintree Marketplace master merchants only A disbursement to one of your sub-merchants has failed. This webhook is not triggered when we attempt to disburse funds to a Venmo account that does not exist. See our Braintree Marketplace Funding article for details.
transaction_disbursed
