Payout Details
Minimum Payout
The minimum payout is £25.
If your balance is below this:
- Keep selling leads until you reach £25
- Balance accumulates over time
Maximum Payout
There's no maximum—withdraw any amount from your available balance.
Payout Fee
Sellers pay a 3% payout fee, with a minimum of £3. It is charged per lead sale and is normally deducted at the point of sale, so the balance you see is already net of it — withdrawing costs nothing extra.
| Lead sold for | Payout fee | Added to your balance |
|---|---|---|
| £20 | £3.00 (minimum) | £17.00 |
| £50 | £3.00 (minimum) | £47.00 |
| £100 | £3.00 | £97.00 |
| £500 | £15.00 | £485.00 |
