What is Fast Payout?
Fast Payout is a quicker way to access your Yoco earnings.
Get paid out by 8:00am the next day.
Available seven days a week, including Sundays and public holidays.
💡 Good to know: In very rare cases, your Fast Payout request may be unsuccessful. If this happens, a follow-up request will be sent, so you still get paid on the same day.
💸 Fast Payout is only available if your Yoco balance is at least R10.00. If you don't meet this requirement, your payout will carry over until your balance increases.
