Payouts explained

How earnings become money in the bank — the balance buckets, plus standard and instant payouts.

Updated June 4, 2026

A payout moves your cleared earnings to your bank. Before money can be paid out, it passes through three balance buckets.

The three balances#

BalanceMeaning
FutureEarnings from confirmed lessons that haven't happened yet.
PendingMoney from closed-out lessons that's still settling.
AvailableCleared funds ready to pay out.

Closing out a lesson moves it from Future to Pending, then to Available once it clears. See Available, Pending, and Future balances.

Standard vs. instant#

Standard payout

A standard payout has no fee and typically reaches your bank in a few business days.

Instant payout

An instant payout moves funds in minutes for a small fee, shown before you confirm.

A note on instant-payout fees
Instant-payout fees are sometimes collected from later earnings rather than up front, so a fee may appear against a future lesson's proceeds. The net effect is the same — you simply pay the instant fee for the speed.

Who can pay out#

Both coaches and gyms have balances and request payouts the same way. A connected bank account is required — see Connect your bank account.
