# Getting Paid

> How commissions turn into a payout — balances, payment methods, withdrawal, and timing.

This page covers the money: how your commission becomes a balance, how to set up a payment method, and how to withdraw.

## Your balance

The **Payout** tab shows three numbers:

- **Ready to withdraw** — the available balance you can cash out now
- **Pending** — earned but not yet cleared for withdrawal
- **Total paid** — your lifetime earnings paid out

## 1. Set up a payment method

Before you can withdraw, add a payment method under **Profile → Payout**. Enter your country, currency, and account details.

Available methods depend on your country and currency:

| Country / currency | Methods |
| --- | --- |
| US / USD | Bank account (ACH) or Wise |
| Vietnam / VND | Bank account (BIC/SWIFT) |
| Vietnam / USD | Bank account (BIC/SWIFT) or Wise |
| Other | Bank account (BIC/SWIFT) or Wise |

## 2. Withdraw

Open **Withdraw** from the Payout tab. It's a three-step wizard:

1. **Amount** — enter how much to withdraw, pick your method, and see any processing fee
2. **Review** — confirm the details
3. **Pay** — submit your withdrawal

:::note

A processing fee may apply depending on the method — the exact amount is shown before you confirm. Each program also sets a **minimum withdrawal amount**, so you may need to reach that threshold before cashing out.

## 3. When you get paid

After you submit a withdrawal, the Affitor team reviews it and marks it as sent. Once it's sent, allow **1–3 business days** for the funds to reach your account. You can follow the status — pending → processing → completed — in your payout history.

## After a refund

If a sale is later refunded, the related commission is reconciled through the same commission and payout workflow.
