## Overview of How Affiliate Payment Information Collection Works

The main idea is that you can **choose which payment methods** to offer your affiliates. You can select just one or multiple options. Affiliates will then be able to choose from the methods you’ve made available.

Below is the list of **default payment methods**. When you select a particular method, affiliates will be required to provide the corresponding information. For example: **PayPal** – affiliates must provide their PayPal email or **Bank (International)** – affiliates must provide their bank account number and BIC.

If you create a **custom payment method**, you define what information affiliates need to provide.

Below, we’ll explain both options in detail.

## Default payout methods available in Tapfiliate

Here are the payout methods currently supported by Tapfiliate:

* ACH
* Bank (Australia)
* Bank (IBAN)
* Bank (India)
* Bank (International)
* Bank (UK)
* Bitcoin
* Check
* Ether
* Litecoin
* MercadoPago
* Neteller
* Payoneer
* PayPal
* PayQuicker
* Skrill
* Stellar (XLM)
* Venmo
* Webmoney

Here’s how you **can choose the payment method in your account**: Go to your **Settings** tab **→ Payments →** From the dropdown menu, **select a payment method** from the list.

**For Venmo:** Make sure affiliates provide both their **username** and **phone number** in their payment settings. If a phone number is missing, advise them to delete Venmo as a payment method and then re-add it with both fields completed.

Changes can be made in the affiliate portal by clicking on the bubble with their initials → **Payout Methods**.

## How to create a custom payment method

If you want to pay affiliates using a method not listed here, you can **create your own payout method**.\

In addition to the wide variety of payout methods already offered by Tapfiliate, you can also **add custom payout methods** to pay your affiliates.\

**To set up a new payout method:**

1. Go to your **Settings** tab **→ Payments**
2. Scroll down to the **Create New Payout Method** button and click on it
3. Next, give your new method a **title** and create the **fields**. These fields will appear as questions that affiliates need to fill out.

**What information should you ask for?**

When deciding what fields to include, ask yourself: *“What information do I need from my affiliates to pay them?”*

For example: If you want to pay an affiliate via **PayPal**, you only need their **PayPal email**. In this case, you would add **PayPal email** as the only field for the payout method.

**Important notes:**

* PayPal is already offered as a standard payout method, so there’s no need to create it as a custom method.
* Tapfiliate already collects **First Name, Last Name, and Email Address** by default. You don’t need to ask for this information again when creating a custom payout method.

## FAQs

**❓*Are affiliate payouts via Stripe supported? I see Stripe listed in the integration guides.***

Stripe isn’t currently available as a payout option for affiliate commissions. However, it is on our roadmap, and we plan to add Stripe as a payout method in the future.\

For now, you can [integrate Tapfiliate with Stripe](https://support.tapfiliate.com/integrations/supported-integrations/how-to-integrate-stripe-with-tapfiliate.md) **to track payments as conversions** — this is separate from affiliate payouts.

**❓*How can I check if an affiliate has added their payout details?***

1. Go to the **Affiliates** tab in your account.
2. Click on the affiliate in question.
3. Click the **Go to Full Profile** button.\
   If the affiliate has added payout details, they will appear in the **Payout Methods** section.

**❓*How can I collect or export affiliates’ payout details?***

The primary way to retrieve an affiliate’s payout details is through the REST API. You can use the [Get Payout Method endpoint](https://developers.tapfiliate.com/api-reference/affiliates/get-payout-method) to do this.
