Payouts payment processing

When your payout is successfully processed, recipients that already have a PayPal or Venmo account get their payment instantly. Recipients without a PayPal or Venmo account receive a notification that a payment is available. If a payment is unclaimed after 30 days, the money is returned to your account.

PayPal sends you a summary email for each payout. You can log in to your PayPal account and get payouts transaction logs.
