Payouts

Affitor handles all partner payouts. This guide explains payout schedules, methods, and how the process works.

How Payouts Work

Sale happens → Invoice sent to advertiser → Funds to Affitor balance → Hold period → Partner payout

Transaction completed – Customer purchases via affiliate link
Invoice sent – Advertiser pays commission + platform fee
- Split Pay: Automatic per transaction (via Stripe Connect)
- Bill Flow: Weekly summary invoice
Funds received – Money moves to Affitor’s holding balance
Hold period clears – Commission becomes withdrawable (7-21 days)
Bi-weekly payout – Partner receives payment

You don’t need to manage individual partner payments. Affitor handles everything.

Payout Schedule

Frequency	Schedule
Bi-weekly	Every 2 weeks

Partners receive payouts on a fixed bi-weekly cycle for all cleared commissions in their Withdrawable balance.

Payout Methods

Partners choose their preferred payout method in their Affitor dashboard:

Method	Availability	Processing time
Bank transfer	Global	2-5 business days
Wise	Global	1-2 business days
Stripe	Where available	1-2 business days

Partners manage their own payout settings. You don’t need to collect banking details.

Payout Threshold

Minimum payout: $5

Partners working through Affitor often promote multiple programs simultaneously. Affitor aggregates earnings across all programs into a single balance, making payouts efficient for everyone.

Partner Balance States

Commission moves through these states:

State	Meaning
Pending	Within hold period, subject to refund
Withdrawable	Cleared hold period, ready for payout
Paid	Sent to partner’s bank/Wise/Stripe

Partners see all states in their dashboard with full transaction history.

What Partners See

In their Affitor dashboard, partners can view:

Pending balance – Commissions still in hold period
Withdrawable balance – Ready to be paid out
Payout history – All past payments with dates and amounts
Transaction details – Individual sales and commission earned

Refunds After Payout

If a customer refunds after commission was paid to partner:

Scenario	What happens
Partner has balance	Refund amount deducted from next payout
Partner has no balance	Negative balance carried forward

This protects you from paying commission on refunded sales.

Your Role

As an advertiser, you:

Do	Don’t
Approve/reject transactions	Manage individual partner payments
Set hold period length	Collect partner banking details
Monitor commission costs	Process payout transfers

Affitor handles the operational complexity of paying partners worldwide.

Payout Fees

Fee	Who pays
Payout processing	Affitor (included in platform fee)
Currency conversion	Partner (if applicable)
Bank receiving fees	Partner’s bank (varies)

No additional fees charged to advertisers for partner payouts.
