Paying Creators
You can pay creators directly through GRIN. GRIN has two different types of payment options:
Cash Payments: This option lets you pay through your GRIN account directly to a creator's bank account by Bank Transfer. There are two requirements to make cash payments:
You need to have available creator funds. Learn how to deposit funds with our article Depositing Funds for Creator Payments.
The creator you're paying needs to add a Bank Transfer payout method and submit a W-9 tax form (or a W-8BEN for non-U.S. creators) on their Live Site. Bank Transfer is the only payout method GRIN supports. They can learn how to complete this setup with our Creator Payment Guide, or our articles for U.S. creators and non-U.S. creators.
Offline Payments: This option lets you track payments you've made outside of GRIN so you can still have an accurate record of payments you've made all in one place in GRIN.
Note: GRIN no longer supports PayPal payouts. Creators who have not yet added a bank account will not be able to receive cash payments. You can check where each creator stands by enabling the Payment Account Status column on your payments view.
