Payouts
Withdraw your Tuitionable earnings: available balance, requesting a payout, the deferred-debit model, the payout lifecycle, and methods.
On this page
Overview
A payout moves your earned money out from your Tuitionable wallet to you. You request from your available balance; our team will review it and send the funds to your preferred payout mode. This page explains the balance states, how requests are handled, and what to expect at each step.
Available vs Pending Balance
Your wallet has two parts. Pending holds refer to earnings that are still within their release buffer; while the available balance consists of money that has been released and can be withdrawn. You can only request a payout against your available balance. See Earnings & Commission for how earnings are released from pending to available.
Requesting a Payout
From your earnings page, choose an amount up to your available balance and a payout method, then submit. Two rules to take note:
- One open request at a time. While a request is pending, approved, or processing, you can’t raise another — wait for it to be actioned first.
- Minimum threshold. There's a platform minimum payout amount; requests below it are declined with a message.
Deferred Debit — Your Balance Stays Put
Requesting a payout does not immediately deduct your balance. Your available balance stays intact and the request shows on your Payments page as a pending request — until Paid.
Why it works this way: you shouldn’t see your balance drop or a “debited” line for money that hasn’t actually moved yet. If a request is declined while still pending, no amount was deducted and it will still be shown in your available balance.
The Payout Lifecycle
| Status | What it means |
|---|---|
| pending | You raised the request; balance untouched, awaiting platform review. |
| processing | Approved — your balance is now debited and the disbursement is on its way. |
| paid | The money has actually been sent — you’ll get a “Payout paid” notification. |
| rejected | Declined with a reason; the amount stays in your available balance (refunded if it had already been approved). |
Payout Methods
Save your payout details under your earnings settings. The exact methods available (bank transfer, PayNow, PayPal). You can raise the request inline from the same settings page without leaving it.
