Express payment payout
 

Ive just setup and enabled Express payout(US). What happens next? Do I have to request payment? Or Does Amazon automatically disburse every 24hours? I dont see any request payment options, express payout is enabled and I opened a bank account just for this reason:clap:

Re: Express payment payout
 

Unfortunately you do not get disbursements every 24 hours. The "express" payout option just makes deposits go through in 24 hours instead of waiting 3-5 days.

Wow I screwed this up lol. I guess I misunderstood this because in the email I received something about requesting payment and you can only request every 24 hours. It even says in the help files there's a button to request payment under reports. But after Googling it it does seem like it's just a quicker method and nothing mentions being able to manually request payment. I spent almost two hours today at the bank opening an account just for this lol.

Do you know anything about express payment via us debt card? The help files say this:
Express Payout is different than Disburse on Demand, which allows a seller to request a payout manually by clicking the Request Payment button on the Payment Dashboard. Under Disburse on Demand to a Visa debit card, Amazon will payout funds within 24 hours.

So if I'm reading that right they will disburse to a debt card after requesting payment??

Interesting clarification.

Re: Express payment payout
 

I just wanna enable "disbursement on demand" :(. I assume this is something different then the grandfather accounts with daily payout. The help files say that you can request disbursements if you disburse to us debit cards....but I've never heard that before..

Re: Express payment payout
 

Most accounts have this. The "request payment" button pays out your total balance less the amount held in your seller account to cover chargebacks, refunds, A-to-z Guarantee claims and fees. I have never used it.

Re: Express payment payout
 

So it just shows up? And not the grandfather accounts? It doesn't matter if it disburses to a checking or debit card? Maybe because my health is 204 I don't have it?

They'd prefer a bank account usually

Re: Express payment payout
 

I do not know anything about grandfather accounts. It should appear for all accounts in the payments tab.

If you are strapped for cash and need quick payouts you may want to check out Payability. They take a cut. Do your research, I have heard horror stories about them.

Re: Express payment payout
 

I do not have that option :(

Re: Express payment payout
 

Payability? they are a separate business or at-least amazon wants us to think so

Re: Express payment payout
 

The option to manually disburse. I don't have it:( alot of accounts are grandfathered in when all accounts had it I assume.

Re: Express payment payout
 

so I just received my first express payment...it was a day earlier. I wouldnt call it 24hours but instead of 3 days I had it in 2 days. incase anyone is wondering :)

Re: Express payment payout
