Fees

Each vendor payout transaction incurs a $0.25 fee charged by PayPal. These are PayPal fees and VendorPayout is not associated with them.

Optional

PayPal integration is optional. You can continue paying vendors through other accounting systems like QuickBooks, Xero, Stripe, ACH transfers, or bank wires.
