The minimum royalty payout amount for PayPal is $20, but the minimum royalty payout amount for Wise is $100. Why is there a difference?

The minimum payout for Wise is $100, and the minimum payout for PayPal is $20.

You can configure your royalty payment method on your Payment Settings page here

This is for historical reasons; we only added Wise as a payment method relatively recently, but we have supported PayPal from the beginning.

In part, our position here is that we think $100 is a better payout option from a fees and administrative perspective in the long run.

But, because we had allowed $20 minimum payments from PayPal from the beginning, we kept that option for PayPal.
