Understanding the Payouts Page and Payout Details
The Payouts page is your central hub for tracking funds processed through the platform and sent to your bank account. It
provides an organized view of payout summaries, details of each payout, and a breakdown of associated transactions and
fees. This guide will explain how to navigate the page, interpret the data, view payout details, and download reports.
