These terms apply if you post a parts or tools link on a mod/build in the Whealz app and choose to set up payouts. They work alongside our general Terms of Service and Privacy Policy, which still apply.
When you add a "Buy link" to a mod, Whealz automatically tags it so that if someone follows your link and buys something from that retailer, Whealz earns a commission from the retailer. Whealz splits that commission with you.
| Your share of Whealz's commission | 50% |
|---|---|
| Minimum payout per period | $25 (smaller amounts carry forward to the next period) |
| Payout frequency | Monthly |
This split may change in the future - for example, subscribers to a future paid tier may receive a higher share. We'll update this page and notify creators through the app before any change takes effect.
Only links to retailers Whealz has an active affiliate relationship with earn a commission - not every link you post. As of this writing that includes Amazon, AutoDoc, and AutoZone; we may add or remove retailers over time. A link to a retailer we don't have a relationship with still works normally for whoever clicks it, it just doesn't earn anything.
Each retailer (or the affiliate network it sells through) reports commission earnings to Whealz on its own schedule, which is outside our control - most retailers hold a return/cancellation window before a sale is finalized, so earnings for a given month are typically confirmed some weeks later, not instantly. Whealz reconciles these reports and calculates your share based on the actual, confirmed commission attributed to your links for that period.
Payouts are sent via Stripe, our payment processor. You'll need to complete a one-time Stripe onboarding (from Settings ▸ Payouts in the app) with your own identity and bank details - Stripe handles this directly, we never see or store your bank details ourselves. If you haven't finished onboarding by the time a payout is calculated, it's held and paid automatically once you do.
If your payouts exceed the applicable annual reporting threshold, Stripe will generate and deliver the required tax form (for example, a 1099-K in the United States) directly through your Stripe account. You're responsible for reporting and paying any taxes owed on amounts you receive.
If you believe a payout is wrong, contact [email protected] within 60 days of that payout period with the details. We'll investigate against the underlying retailer/network report and correct genuine errors in the next payout cycle.
