When and how do I get paid?

Payout rhythm

Earnings move through Available, On hold (until the hold date, protecting against cancellations), and Paid out. Payouts batch weekly on Mondays to your registered bank account, net of TDS deducted under section 194-O. Add your bank details in payout settings — payouts only begin once they are verified.

Hold periods and the minimum payout

Each earning is held for a short period after the later of the payment and the end of the session, so a cancellation or refund can still be settled. The hold is 24 hours for consultations and classes, 48 hours for webinars, and 7 days for subscriptions; moving a session moves its release date with it.

A payout is sent once your available balance reaches ₹500. Smaller balances stay available and join the next payout. An earning marked Refunded was returned to the learner after a cancellation and is not paid out. On bookings you sell yourself, Familiarise keeps a 20% platform fee; sessions an organisation pays for follow that organisation's agreement.

Bank errors and eligibility

A “returned by your bank” or “rejected transfer” status means your bank refused the credit — verify account number, IFSC, and name match, then re-trigger. Payouts are currently India-only; experts outside India cannot receive bank payouts yet.
