# Payouts

> Track your payout status, history, and payment details

The Payouts page shows you the status of your commission payments. After you earn revenue from sponsorships, HackerSquad processes payouts so you receive your commission share.

## Payout statuses

Each payout goes through a defined lifecycle:

| Status         | Description                                                              |
| -------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| **Pending**    | Your commission has been earned but the payout hasn't been initiated yet |
| **Processing** | The payout is being processed and payment is on its way                  |
| **Paid**       | The payment has been completed and funds have been transferred           |

<Note>Payouts are processed after sponsorship payments have been confirmed and cleared. Processing times may vary.</Note>

## Payout history

Your payout history shows a record of all payments you've received:

| Field                | Description                                       |
