What is the payout threshold?

Last updated: 3 months ago

Cathopic has established a $50 minimum payout threshold. This policy protects contributors from unnecessary transaction fees while ensuring regular payments once you reach sustainable earning levels.

Why the $50 minimum exists

International payment processing involves costs. By waiting until $50, we avoid: payment processing fees consuming small payouts, bank taxes, administrative overhead, and currency conversion fees eating into earnings.

As stated: "A minimum balance of $50 profit is required to avoid bank commissioners tax."

Example accumulation

  • January: $18 earned → Balance: $18 (carries forward)

  • February: $22 earned → Balance: $40 (carries forward)

  • March: $28 earned → Balance: $68 → Payment processed!

No time limit

  • Earnings never expire

  • Accumulates indefinitely

  • Payment guaranteed once $50 reached

No maximum either

  • Earn $200, get paid $200

  • Top contributors earn $1,000+ monthly
