After successfully onboarding an earner with Checkr Pay, issuing payouts to them is the next step. Payouts are processed instantly. If an earner has opted into a Checkr Pay account the funds are available immediately. If an earner has opted to be paid via direct deposit, the funds will be transferred according to standard ACH timelines. This article will guide you through the payout process. You can also issue payouts in bulk using a Batch File
Procedure:
-
Start by filling in the "Worker's Checkr Pay ID" field with the earner’s unique Checkr Pay ID. Please remember, if you're using the dashboard to process a payout, you must enter the Worker ID located on the worker's tab. User IDs assigned using metadata cannot be used or located in the Payouts tab.
-
Next, enter the desired payout amount (in dollars) in the "Amounts" tab.
-
The 'Payout Description' will appear in the Earner's transaction history and signify the reason for the payout. It is suggested to provide detailed information about the job or shift to eliminate any confusion regarding the payment of work completed. If multiple job payouts are being issued, it is advised to send them as separate payouts so earners can easily distinguish how much they were paid for each job.
-
After submitting the payout, you will see it in the Payouts ledger below. The status of the payout will indicate whether it's been completed or queued due to the earner not yet activating their account.
