Smartcat provides several payout options that allow you to receive payments for your work done in Smartcat or outside the platform fast and hassle-free.
If you have never worked in our platform, but your client prefers using it to pay for your work, this article will guide you through the entire process.
-
It all starts with a notification delivered to your email. It usually means that your client has added you to their Smartcat team and is now ready to remit your payment.
-
Click Join and follow the two registration steps: choose a password and specify your country. Then read and accept our privacy policy and Terms of Use and click Log In.
You can complete the rest of the procedure at a later time. If it’s been a while and your invitation has expired or you do not remember your password, you can always use a Password-free login with code option.

As soon as Smartcat receives the payment from your client, the paid amount gets credited to your Smartcat balance and the appropriate notification is duly sent to your email. To check your current balance and set up a payout option, go to My Payouts. A direct link is included into the payment notification.
Your account in Smartcat can then be used to receive as many payments from as many customers as you may possible have.
