Payouts

Congratulations on all your successful transactions! Your next question might be: "When am I getting my payments in my bank account?"

You will be able to view your upcoming remittances, as well as your payouts history in your Payouts Dashboard. Also, you can generate payment reports for all your accounting needs. 🥳

On the first row, you'll be able to see 3 fields.

Upcoming Payout:

The soonest payout you should expect to be generated and received. It contains all the payments cleared on or before the payout date. Also known as your refundable balance.

You may check to see the summary of your payouts by clicking the blue "x transactions" below the total amount.

You can also check the number of payments within the payout!

Next Payout:

The payments are to be included in your next soonest payout (after your upcoming payout). Payments may be included here due to payment clearing.

Similar to the Upcoming Payouts card, you will be able to check the summary of the items on the payout card.

🤫 Quick Tip:

Upcoming Payout also refers to your refundable balance.
