Add or edit your payout method
Before you can start payouts, you'll need to add a payout method. Your payout method is the bank account where we send your earnings.
Once it's set up, you can update it anytime.
Before your first payout: Verify as seller to add a payout method. This helps us make sure your earnings are sent securely to you.
Add or edit payout method in the app
- Open the app.
- Tap Seller Hub
.
- Scroll down and go to Payouts.
- Tap Add a Payout or Edit Payout to open Stripe Connect in your browser.
Add or edit payout method on web
- From whatnot.com, open Seller Hub.
- On the left, click Financials and open the Payouts tab.
- Click Add a Payout Method or Edit Payout Settings to open Stripe Connect.
If you’re adding a payout method for the first time, you’ll create or connect a Stripe account, verify your personal information, and choose the bank account where you'd like to receive payouts.
If you already have a payout method, follow the prompts in Stripe Connect to update it.
Tip: PayPal is no longer available for new payouts. If you added PayPal before it was removed, you can continue using it.

Business days don't include weekends or local banking holidays. Banking holidays may delay payouts, even if the payout status shows as processing.
