# When do I get paid? When are payouts processed?

Once you’ve made your first charges with Stripe, your first payout will be initiated, and should post within seven days. Thereafter, all US-based merchants will receive payouts on a rolling two-day schedule. You can read more about this on the official Stripe support article [here](https://support.stripe.com/questions/waiting-period-for-first-payout-on-stripe).

Payout schedules vary slightly for merchants outside of the US. See your country’s [payout timing](https://stripe.com/docs/payouts#standard-payout-timing).

You can link your bank account, and set the frequency of these payouts, in your Stripe Dashboard’s [Balance](https://dashboard.stripe.com/balance/overview) page. From there, you can also view all payouts from Stripe to your bank account. To learn more, visit Stripe’s documentation on [Receiving Payouts](https://stripe.com/docs/payouts).
