# Payouts

Thresholds, cycles and what pauses them.

## Requirements

- A verified payout account in **live** mode
- Payouts enabled and not paused
- Net balance at or above the payout threshold (default **€50.00**)

## Cycle

A scheduled job runs the payout cycle: for every developer with an active payout account it computes the net of earnings, refunds and reversals since the last payout and sends **one** transfer when the threshold is met. Below the threshold, the balance rolls into the next cycle.

Payouts are made in **EUR** only.

## Status

| Status | Meaning |
| --- | --- |
| `pending` | Created, on the way to your bank |
| `paid` | Settled at your bank |
| `failed` | Rejected — usually stale bank details |
| `paused` | Blocked by verification or a compliance hold |

## What pauses payouts

- Payout account `restricted` or `disabled` (missing documents, expired ID)
- Suspended developer organization
- An open compliance review

You are notified in-app and by email, with the exact requirement, until it is resolved.

## Failures

A failed transfer returns the amount to your balance and it is retried in the next cycle after you update the bank details. Bank changes are edited in the payout settings; sandbox mode has no bank management at all.
