Payout Overview

PayBru pays creators to a linked South African bank account after earnings clear the 7-day hold period.

How it works

  • A member pays for a membership, tip, or store purchase.
  • PayBru holds the net earnings for 7 days.
  • Cleared earnings move into your available balance.
  • You request a payout from Payments > View Payouts.
  • PayBru reviews the request and sends it through Paystack.
  • The transfer lands in your bank account within 1-3 business days after approval.

What you need first

  • Approved community KYC.
  • A South African bank account saved in Resources > My Profile > Payments.
  • Available earnings that have cleared the hold period.

A few limits to know

  • Only one pending payout per community can be active at a time.
  • There is no minimum payout amount.
  • Bank details must be correct before you request the payout.

Fees

PayBru deducts fees before earnings become available:

  • Platform fee: 5%
  • Paystack gateway fee: 2.9% + R1.00
  • VAT: 0%

Refer 10 new signups and your platform fee drops to 2.5% for 6 months.
