## Overview

In this section, the affiliate owner can see the list of all the generated payouts and choose to **Approve** or **Deny** them for a payout. As soon as a customer signs up through an affiliate link, the payout and commission get recorded and published on the ‘Payout - **Pending**’ tab on the 1st of the following month or depending on your setup.

Once they are approved for a payout, the affiliate owner needs to take an export and upload it on their payment gateway to manually make the payment as per that CSV. Once the payment has been made, the affiliate owner needs to update the status in Affiliate Manager to **Paid**, so that correct reporting gets reflected for that affiliate and the overall campaign.

## Managing Your Affiliate's Payout

### Pending

All the payouts across all campaigns get populated in this status month-wise. The affiliate owner is expected to come here and approve the affiliates that are eligible for a payout by clicking on the "Approved for Payout" button.

### Approved for Payout

Once a payout has been approved from the Pending tab, it comes to the ''Approved for payout'' tab where the affiliate owner is expected to fetch an export of the affiliate names and the amount they are owed and upload it on their payment gateway. Once payment to the affiliate is made, the affiliate owner is expected to mark the affiliate payouts as 'Paid'.

The affiliate owner can still decide to move a payout back to pending from this tab if necessary.
