Two things keep your account healthy: Stripe having the details it needs to pay you, and your content staying within our rules. Here's where to check both, and what to do if something needs attention.

✨ Quick answer: your payout status is at the top of Settings β†’ Payments. Content decisions and appeals are in Settings β†’ Account status.

πŸ’³ Your payout status

On the Creator side (the Creator / Member switch is at the bottom of the left sidebar), click Settings in the sidebar, then the Payments tab. On a phone, tap the menu at the top-left first. The first line tells you where you stand:

Status

What it means

What to do

Payouts on

Stripe has everything it needs.

Nothing.

Verification needed

Stripe needs more details, sometimes by a date.

Follow the notice under it before the deadline.

Under review

Stripe is checking what you sent.

Nothing. Payouts turn on once it's done.

Payouts paused

Stripe has paused payouts on your account.

Read the notice under it and send what it asks for.

The same notices show at the top of Payouts, and Stripe emails you when it needs something.

⚠️ Heads up: if you miss a Stripe deadline, Stripe can pause your payouts, and sometimes your sales, until you answer. Reply early to keep everything running.

πŸ”’ The identity check

Once your earnings pass a set amount, we ask you to confirm it's you with a photo of your government ID and a selfie, through Stripe. It takes a few minutes and you only do it once.

1

Open Payouts

On the Creator side, click Payouts in the left sidebar and look for Verify your identity to release your payouts at the top.

2

Click Verify identity

Click Verify identity and follow the steps.

3

Come back to Payouts

Come back to Payouts. The banner clears once Stripe confirms.

Your sales keep coming in. Only payouts wait until you're verified.

πŸ›‘οΈ Content decisions and appeals

On the Creator side, click Settings in the left sidebar, then the Account status tab. It lists anything of yours we've removed or hidden, and any portal we've suspended. If the list is empty, you'll see Your account is in good standing.

1

Click Appeal

Find the item and click Appeal.

2

Tell us why

Tell us why you think it was a mistake. A person on our team reviews it, not an automated system.

3

Check back on the page

Check back on the same page. The status shows Under review, then Approved, restored or Upheld with a note.

βœ… Good to know: if an appeal is upheld, you can click Appeal again and add anything new.

❓ Questions

In Settings β†’ Payments. Stripe may ask you to confirm it's you with a code before it shows your bank details.

Stripe sometimes asks for more as your sales grow. It's routine. Answer the notice and payouts carry on.
