# Account and Payout Settings

> Manage your profile, security, and the payout details that decide how you get paid.

Your account settings hold two things that matter: how brands see you, and how your money reaches you. This page walks through both so nothing blocks a payout when you've earned one.

    { label: 'Outcome', value: 'A complete profile and a payout method ready to receive commissions' },

## Profile

Your profile is what a brand sees when they review your application. Open **Settings** (from the menu at the top of the left rail, or **Profile** in your account menu), then **Account**:

- **Upload image** and **Full name**: the identity shown to brands. A real name and photo help your applications get approved.
- **Email**: your sign-in email, shown read-only.
- **Username**: your Refer a brand link, `affitor.com/r/<username>` (see below).
- **Country**, **Website** and your **YouTube**, **X (Twitter)**, **Instagram**, **TikTok** and **LinkedIn** links: where you promote. Brands running manual review use these to decide.

**Save changes** saves the whole page, the username included.

A complete profile is the single cheapest way to raise your approval rate: brands approve partners they can size up.

### Username

Your username makes your Refer a brand link `affitor.com/r/<username>`. Use 3-48 lowercase letters, numbers and single dashes; the field checks right away whether the name is free and can suggest one. Your first username is free, then you can change it 3 times. Old links keep working for you: every username you saved, and your original code, still credit you.

## Security

Under **Settings** → **Security**, change your password with **Current password**, **New password** and **Confirm new password**, then **Update password**. Changing it signs you out everywhere else. If you signed up with Google, **Set a password** lets you also sign in with your email address.

## Payout details

This is the part that blocks money if it's missing. Before your first withdrawal, add a payout method under **Settings** → **Payout** (see [Getting paid](/docs/partners/payouts) for the full flow):

- **Payout method**: where Affitor sends your earnings when you withdraw. **Add payout method** adds one; **⋯** → **Edit** or **Remove** changes a saved one. Enter the details accurately: a typo in a payout address is the most common reason a withdrawal fails.
- **Invoice details**: **Business name**, **Address** and **Postal code**, added to your payout invoices.

## Verify it worked

<VerifySuccess
  dashboard={["Your profile shows your full name and photo, and a brand reviewing your application sees the same", "Settings › Payout lists your payout method instead of \"No payout method yet\""]}
  ifNotWorking={["If a withdrawal is blocked, open Settings › Payout and check that a payout method is saved, and that the amount is within your available balance. Pending withdrawals and commissions still awaiting the brand's payment are not available yet"]}
