How and when will I be paid?

How do I get paid?

We use a global payment processing system called Tipalti to send payments quickly and securely around the world.
You can choose from several payment methods, including ACH, e-Check, wire transfer*, and PayPal*. We do not send paper checks.
In most cases, you can also choose your preferred payment currency.**
If you have a payment related question, email our Payments Team at payments@appsumo.com

When are payouts?

We will start sending payments on a Net 60-day basis from the end of the month (due to our 60-day refund policy). Payments will be sent out the first week of the month 60-days after the end of the respective month's sales, minus refunds.
Scenario: You make a sale on June 14th, 2026. You will receive a payout for the sales (excluding refunds) generated in June 2026, the first week of September 2026.
Our payouts are the same if you have a refundable or non-refundable product.

What about taxes?

We are not authorized to provide tax advice. Please contact a tax consultant or the IRS for more information about the potential tax implications of partnering with us.

When viewing sales in your Partner Portal, please keep these things in mind:

Customers have 60 days to redeem a code, so you might see someone redeem a code on a different day than they bought it on.
Customers have 60 days to refund a code, and sometimes this happens before they redeem a code. In these circumstances, collecting end-user information will be accessible.
The Partner Portal can take up to 24 hours to reflect a sale.
