NOTE: Once you have enabled manual payouts, the affiliate must log in to their affiliate dashboard and upload their payout credentials. To do this, the affiliates need to go to the "Payouts Methods" tab in their affiliate portal. The affiliate will see the enabled manual payout option available here.

To send manual payouts, click on the "Payouts" tab of your dashboard and select the affiliate to whom you wish to send the payout.
Manual payouts cannot be sent in bulk. You need to select each affiliate individually to pay them individually.

Now, a send payout popup appears.
For PayPal, simply press the PayPal button, and a new tab will open in PayPal with the affiliate's info and the amount owed to them preloaded. Once you complete the payout, return to the Social Snowball Portal and click "Mark as Paid" to notify the affiliate that you have sent them a payment.
For all of the other payout options, you will have to send the money outside of Social Snowball. When you click on a payout option, the affiliate's payment credentials for the selected option will appear in a pop-up.
Once you have paid the affiliate outside of Social Snowball, return to the Social Snowball Portal and click "Mark as Paid" to notify the affiliate that you have sent them a payment.
