Getting Paid: Payout Methods, KYC, Invoices & Tiers

Everything under Payments in your affiliate portal — where to add your bank, PayPal or crypto details, how to complete verification so payouts are not held, where to find the invoices the network issues you, and how payout tiers raise your commission as you scale.

How You Get Paid

  1. Your conversions are approved by the network. Only approved conversions are payable — see your balances on Earnings.
  2. At the end of each payout cycle the network raises an invoice for what you earned, following its payout terms (for example a minimum payout and Net-30).
  3. The invoice is paid to your default payout method. When it is paid, it shows as Paid under Payments → Invoices.
Before your first payout

Add a payout method, fill in your Billing Profile and, if your network asks for it, complete KYC. A missing method or unverified account is the most common reason a payout is held.

Add a Payout Method

  1. Open Payments → Payout Methods and click Add

    Pick a method from the tabs — Banks, Online Services, Crypto or Other. You only see the methods your network can pay through.

  2. Enter your details

    For example account holder, IBAN and BIC for SEPA, your PayPal e-mail, or wallet address and network (TRC20, ERC20 or BEP20) for USDT. Details are checked as you save, so a mistyped IBAN or SWIFT code is caught straight away.

  3. Choose your default and payout currency

    You can save several methods; payouts go to the one marked default. Optionally choose the currency you want to be paid in.

Your details are stored encrypted and shown masked. Changing your default method after a payment batch has been prepared does not change that batch — tell your account manager if a payment is already in progress.

KYC & Tax Forms

If your network verifies affiliates, open Payments → KYC & Tax Forms, complete each step and submit for review. Depending on the network you may be asked for:

  • Personal or company details
  • An identity document and a selfie
  • Proof of address, or business documents for companies
  • A tax form, filled in and e-signed online — a tax declaration, or a US W-9, W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E. You are told which one to sign.

You are notified when you are verified, when a change is requested, or if the submission is rejected. Documents with an expiry date must be renewed when they expire. While you are unverified, your earnings keep accruing but the network may hold payouts.

Billing Profile

Under Account → Billing Profile enter the company name, billing contact, address and tax details (for example GST, PAN or VAT number) that should appear on your invoices. Changes to tax details apply to future invoices only.

Invoices

Payments → Invoices lists the payout invoices the network has issued to you, with invoice number, date, due date, amount, tax and status, plus your totals for the financial year and what is outstanding. Download any invoice for your records.

PendingRaised and awaiting approval by the network.
ApprovedApproved for payment and waiting for the next payment run.
Partially ReceivedPart of the amount has been paid.
Received / PaidPaid in full.
CancelledVoided. Its earnings become payable again on a later invoice.

Payout Tiers

Some networks reward volume: once your approved conversions reach a tier, every new approved conversion pays a bonus percentage on top of your normal campaign payout. Payments → Payout Tiers shows the ladder, your current tier, how many approved conversions you have this week or month, and which campaigns count.

  • Counts reset every week (Monday to Sunday) or every calendar month, as the network chooses.
  • The bonus applies from the moment you reach a tier. Conversions recorded earlier keep the payout they had.
  • The menu item appears only while your network runs a tier program.

FAQ

Why is my balance lower than last week?
A conversion that was already invoiced can be reversed later by the advertiser (for example a chargeback). Its payout then comes off your next earnings, and the Adjustments list on Earnings shows exactly which conversions were reversed.

When will I be paid?
Your payout terms — minimum payout, cycle and Net-N days — are shown on your Earnings page. Contact your account manager for anything else.

Can I earn from affiliates I refer?
If your network runs a sub-affiliate program, yes — see Sub-Affiliates.
