Payouts and your balance

Money copy is exact or absent, so this page states the precise rules: when a credit becomes withdrawable, what the dashboard gates a withdrawal on, and where payouts work today. Where a number is operator-tunable, the dashboard - not this page - shows the current value.

Your balance, in three states

• Credited - your 70% share lands in the ledger the moment an impression is verified (see The 70% split).
• Still clearing - earnings stay in this state for a holdback period, seven days by default. This is the window in which a fraudulent charge can be reversed, so your withdrawable number never overstates what is truly yours.
• Withdrawable - cleared earnings above the minimum. The dashboard's payout bar shows all three numbers and the current minimum, so you never have to compute anything.

Where payouts work today

Payouts currently support United States bank accounts only. You can earn anywhere. You cannot yet withdraw everywhere. If your bank is elsewhere, keep earning: your balance is yours, it never expires, and you will be able to withdraw it when we support your region.

How a withdrawal runs

Connecting payouts onboards you with Stripe, which collects the tax form your situation requires (a W-9 or W-8); a withdrawal cannot run until that form is on file. When you withdraw, Awaitful transfers to your Stripe account and Stripe deposits to your bank. The provider's small transfer fee is shown before you confirm, and it is borne by the withdrawal, not hidden in the split.

What never happens to your balance

It does not expire, it is not reduced by fees while it sits, and it cannot be spent as ad budget if you also advertise - developer earnings and advertiser wallets are separate by construction. The one thing that stops future earning instantly is you: Turning it off lists every switch, and Your first earnings covers what accrual looks like day to day.
