Getting started with payouts

A payout account is an account on Vendy where proceeds from transactions and commissions can be withdrawn. This account can be either a bank account or a mobile money wallet.

This account can be added via the API or on the merchant application.

Payouts are initiated to withdraw funds from wallets which are paid into payout accounts described above.
