As a trainer on our platform, understanding how to earn, manage, and cash out your credits is essential. This guide will walk you through every detail, so you can focus on delivering world-class training content.
Earning Credits
Every time a user spends credits on your content, be it live streams, VODs, recordings, or subscriptions, these credits are added to your balance. The transaction is displayed on the Balance page of your trainer's account under the 'Pending Balance' section. The amount of Credits shown in you Pending Balance amount is the amount of Credits Users have spent on your content minus the Perspire Admin Fee. More Info on what Perspire's Admin fee is and why can be Found Here.
Understanding Pending Balance
Initially, your earned credits are held in a 'Pending Balance' for 72 hours after the user has spent them on your content. This pending period allows for any necessary adjustments or user-related disputes. After the 72 hours, the credits are cleared and moved into your 'Available Balance'.
Using Your Available Balance
Once in your Available Balance, you can use these credits on Perspire.tv, for instance, to purchase other trainer's content. Alternatively, you can choose to reserve a part or all of your Available Balance for cash payout.
Reserving Credits for Payout
You can select to reserve any amount from 200 credits upwards, up to the maximum amount in your Available Balance. The amount you choose to reserve is shown in your 'Reserve Balance' and is set aside for payout.
Receiving Payouts
The Reserve Balance is automatically paid out on the 1st and 15th of each month. During payout, your reserved credits are converted into USD (at the rate of 10 credits to $1) and transferred into your connected Stripe account. A Stripe account must be connected to your Perspire channel in order to be eligible for Payouts. More Info On How To Setup and Connect a Stripe Account can be Found Here.
Adjusting Your Reserve Balance
Trainers have the flexibility to adjust their Reserve Balance up until the next payout date, either on the 1st or 15th. This allows you to manage your cash flow according to your needs.
