Pay partners

Subscription commissions and one-off commissions use the same payout workflow. Plandalf tracks what you owe; you choose how to send the money.

Start with manual payments

Open Affiliates → Settings → Paying your affiliates. No provider connection is needed to record payments you make yourself.

Optionally select the details affiliates should provide:

  • PayPal: collect a PayPal email and export a PayPal payment file.
  • Bank transfer: collect bank details and export a file for your payment records.
  • Wise: collect a recipient email and export a Wise payment file.

Save payment preferences. Once you enable a method, affiliates need to add and confirm their payment details before that method is ready for payment.

Review, pay, and record

  1. Open Affiliates → Payouts and review the due balances. Commissions still in the hold period or below the minimum are not normally included.
  2. Create a payout batch and review its affiliates and amounts.
  3. Export the batch. This creates a file; it does not transfer money.
  4. Pay through PayPal, your bank, Wise, or your usual service.
  5. After the provider confirms payment, mark the payout paid and record its payment reference.

Before export or mark-paid, Plandalf rechecks the commissions for changes such as refunds, disputes and inactive affiliates. If something changed after export, reconcile it before recording the payment. Do not assume an old export still matches the amount due.

Optional: send directly through PayPal

Expand Send directly through PayPal (optional) in payment preferences. This uses your PayPal Business account with Payouts access.

Enable direct payments and provide the client ID, secret, webhook ID and test/live environment for your PayPal app. Plandalf checks the credentials before the method becomes usable. Leave saved credentials blank when changing other preferences to keep the existing connection.

Saving this setup does not send money. Sending a reviewed payout batch is a separate action. Provider fees and failed or unclaimed payments are recorded from PayPal’s responses where available.

Advanced rules

Expand Advanced payment rules only when you need a method-specific currency restriction, fee note, or waiting period after an affiliate changes their payment details.

The wait after a payment-detail change protects the payout destination. It is separate from the commission hold period that allows time for refunds.

Stripe payouts

Stripe affiliate payouts are disabled in this release. Use manual payments or PayPal. Stripe sales tracking and subscription billing can still be used; they do not require Stripe affiliate payouts.

Access and currency

Organization owners and admins manage payments, exports and payout settings. Amounts use the currency’s minor units; a program minimum and any method-specific minimum both apply.
