Linktree Shops: How to get paid

This guide covers payment instructions for Linkers taking part in early access to our social commerce offerings, Linktree Shops.

🇺🇸 US-only feature: This feature is limited to Linkers based in the United States for now. We’re working hard to bring this feature to more regions soon.

We're partnering with Stripe to help you get paid. Once you’ve created your shop, you can start seeing your potential earnings immediately – but to convert your Pending Earnings to Available Funds and be eligible for an upcoming payout, you'll need to complete the steps below. Once you’re done, Linktree will pay out Available Funds for the commissions you earn, usually on a monthly basis.

  1. Log in and navigate to Settings.

  2. Scroll to the shop section and select “Connect Linktree payments”.

  3. Follow the prompts to get connected with a Stripe express account, and you’re done!

How your Earnings works

Linktree will pay out the Available Funds in your Earnings, minus any transaction fees and processing fees, usually on a monthly basis.

Funds become available once a purchase has been made via a link in your shop, after the retailer’s window closes for cancellations, returns and refunds, you have connected your payout account and you've met the minimum payout threshold (see this FAQ).

The timeframe for cancellations, returns and refunds is solely determined by each individual retailer based on their own terms. Due to this, it can take up to 60 days or sometimes longer for funds to become available. Canceled and returned orders are not eligible for commission.

Checking when you’ll get paid

It’s important to us that you have total transparency over when your next payout is coming through. In your Earnings you can view your Pending Earnings (accrued amounts from transactions that are not yet earned and eligible to be paid out), your next payout date (when your Available Funds are scheduled to be deposited into your bank account) and the amount you’ll be paid. You’ll be able to see a history of commission-based products that have been purchased via a link on your Linktree profile.
