The human brain hates uncertainty. Keep referrers motivated with scheduled, frequent, and on-time payments. Without scheduled payouts, it's harder to make referrers feel excited about receiving referral rewards.
Schedule payments
Create a payment schedule for referral partners' commission:
- Go to "Billing" → "Rewards billing" → "Pay settings."
- Choose from daily, weekly, twice-a-month, or monthly pay frequencies.
Process payments
No matter which payment frequency you choose, you have 7 full days to review and approve or decline payments at the end of each pay period. Referrers are paid on the 8th day.
Example payout schedule - Weekly:
| Payment frequency | Weekly | This is what the referrer sees in the mobile app. |
| Pay period | Monday - Sunday | During this time, referrers earn a commission. You can review those commissions as they come in the Payment Due → 'Up next' tab. |
| Review period |
Within 7 days
|
At the end of the pay period, all due payments move from 'Up Next' to the 'Due' tab. You have 7 full days to review the payments before payouts are due to your referral partners on the 8th day. Any issues with rewards can be adjusted during this time. |
| Process payments by | By end of Day 7, 11:59 PM |
Process payments by 11:59 PM on the 7th day for referrers to get paid on the 8th day at 12:00 AM. |
| Referrer payday |
Paid on the 8th day |
After the 7-day review period, payments must be processed and deposited into referrers' PayPal accounts on the 8th day. |
Important:
During the earning period, if a referral becomes qualified, you can change its status, but changes are not allowed once the earning period ends. Similarly, if a referral transaction is added during the earning period, you can delete or edit it until the end of the earning period. Once the earning period closes, no further changes are permitted to any qualified referrals or transactions. However, you still have the option to adjust or cancel a referrer payment if needed.
Approve & decline payments - Payment statuses.
Payments that referrers earned can have the following statuses:
| Status | Definition | If autopay is ON |
| New |
The new commission the referrers earned is ready for your review and payment processing. |
IMPORTANT: At the end of the 7-day review period at 11:59 PM EST, the status will automatically change to 'Approved,' and payments will be processed. Please use your 7-day review period to make necessary changes and ensure all payments are correct and intended for processing. |
| Approved | The commission reviewed and approved for payment processing. | Payment will be processed. |
| Hold |
Put commission payments on hold due to suspicious activity or if you need more time to review it. |
Payment will be skipped & moved to → 'Past due' tab. |
| Skipped |
|
Not applicable. |
| Declined |
Commission you have permanently declined. You can change these to ‘Approved’ if needed. |
Payments will be skipped & moved to → 'Declined' tab. |
| Paid externally |
Selecting the 'Mark as paid' button changes the payment status to "Paid externally," indicating the commission payment was processed outside the Blabber platform. |
Payments skipped & moved to → 'Pay history' → 'Paid externally' tab. |
Remember — you don’t need to wait for the pay period to end to review and approve or decline payments. We highly encourage all companies to review commissions throughout the pay period rather than waiting for the end of the pay period, as this can make the review process easier and prevent payment delays for your referral partners.
Once referrers are paid, the funds belong to them, and Blabber cannot remove money from their PayPal account under any circumstances. Please use your 7-day review period to make necessary changes and ensure all payments are correct and intended for processing.
