Customer Balance Transaction ​

Each customer has a Balance value, which denotes a debit or credit that’s automatically applied to their next invoice upon finalization. You may modify the value directly by using the update customer API, or by creating a Customer Balance Transaction, which increments or decrements the customer’s balance by the specified amount.
