Paying Creators

You can pay creators directly through GRIN. GRIN has two different types of payment options:

• Cash Payments: This option lets you pay through your GRIN account to creators’ PayPal accounts. There are two requirements to make cash payments:

  • You need to have available creator funds. Learn how to deposit funds with our article Depositing Funds for Creator Payments.

  • The creator you’re paying needs to have a PayPal account and submit a W-9 tax form (or a W-8BEN for non-U.S. creators). They can learn how to submit these forms with our articles for U.S. creators and non-U.S. creators.

• Offline Payments: This option lets you track payments you’ve made outside of GRIN so you can still have an accurate record of payments you’ve made all in one place in GRIN.
