Paid Voting & Payouts

If you run a paid vote page, voters pay per vote and those earnings collect in your account. This page explains how to get set up and how to withdraw your money.

How paid voting works

1. You create a page with the Paid voting type.
2. You connect a payout method (this sets the currency voters are charged in).
3. You set a price per vote.
4. Voters pay by card when they vote (securely, via Stripe).
5. Earnings accumulate, and you request a payout when you are ready.

Izivote takes a small platform fee per payment; the rest is your earnings. The exact share is shown on your Vote Payment tab.

1. Set up payouts

Open Payouts from the sidebar (or the Payout information shortcut on your Profile), then go through Payout Setup (Manage payout method):

• Choose your country.
• Choose a payout method: PayPal, Wise, or bank transfer (available options depend on your country).
• Enter the details for that method (for example your PayPal email, your Wise identifier, or your bank account details).

Your payout currency is set here, and this is the currency voters are charged in across all your paid pages.

[!IMPORTANT] Once your account has any paid activity, the payout currency locks so that all your paid pages stay consistent. Set up payouts before you open your first paid page.

2. Set the price per vote

On a paid vote page, open the Vote Payment tab (or use Set Voting Amount on the Manage tab) and set the amount per vote. Voters cannot pay until an amount is set.

The Vote Payment tab also shows:

• Gross Collected - the total voters have paid.
• Your Total Earnings - your lifetime share after fees.

3. Request a payout

On the Payouts page you can see your available balance and per-page earnings, then Request Payout to withdraw. Payouts are processed to the method you set up.

• There is a minimum payout amount before you can request.
• If you have no available balance, the request button is disabled.
• You can view your payout history on the same page.

[!TIP] Earnings from all your paid pages roll up into one account-wide balance, so you request payouts at the account level, not per page.

Changing your payout details

You can update your payout method and details on the Payouts page. Note that you cannot disconnect a method while a payout request is still pending, and the currency stays fixed once you have paid activity.
