Payouts
How affiliates manage earnings and payments
Last updated: 2026-01-19
The Payouts section shows affiliates their earnings balance, payment history, and lets them configure payment preferences and request withdrawals.
Earnings Balance
- Pending — Commissions awaiting confirmation (refund window)
- Available — Confirmed earnings ready to withdraw
- Processing — Payout requested, payment in progress
- Lifetime Earnings — Total earned since joining
Payout Threshold
Affiliates must reach the minimum payout threshold (set by you) before requesting a withdrawal. Common thresholds are $50-$100.
Requesting a Payout
When balance exceeds the threshold:
- Click "Request Payout" button
- Confirm payment method and amount
- Submit request
- Payout processed on next payout date
Payment Methods
Affiliates can choose their preferred payment method:
- PayPal — Enter PayPal email address
- Bank Transfer — ACH (US) or wire transfer (international)
- Store Credit — Convert to gift card for your store
Payment History
View all past payments:
- Payment date
- Amount paid
- Payment method used
- Transaction reference ID
- Status (completed, failed, reversed)
Tax Information
Affiliates can manage tax info in their profile:
- W-9 Form — Required for US affiliates earning $600+/year
- W-8BEN — For international affiliates
- 1099 Access — Download tax forms at year end
Automatic Payouts
You can enable automatic payouts on a schedule (weekly, bi-weekly, monthly) so affiliates don't need to manually request each payment.
