Payout Preferences in Velveteen

Updated August 27, 2026

The short answer

Payout preferences tell Velveteen where to send royalties. In Settings, choose your country, payout method, and payout email. PayPal has a $20 USD minimum. Canadian Interac e-Transfer has a $50 USD minimum and monthly processing schedule. Review the displayed timing and fee details before saving or requesting a payout.

Payout preferences affect royalty payouts, not subscription billing. Subscription payment methods live in Stripe Billing.
