Why Payout exists.
Almost every "make money online" site is a content farm built by an SEO agency, padded with affiliate links and AI-spun copy, monetized at the reader's expense. The data is wrong, the rates are stale, the rankings are pay-to-play.
Payout is the opposite. Every commission rate is verified from the program's own affiliate dashboard. Every "earn $1,000/month" claim links to programs that can actually produce that for real users. When a program cuts rates, the page reflects it the same week.
Who built this
Hi, I'm Ramazan Valiev — a solo founder based in Georgia (the country). I've been shipping side projects since 2019. Payout started as a personal spreadsheet I was using to decide which crypto referral program to promote on my TikTok account. It turned into a full aggregator when I realised 90% of friends asking me "which program should I promote" needed the same answers across more than just crypto.
Reach me at ramazan@getpayout.shop — I read every email and reply within a couple of days. If you spot data that's out of date, tell me — there's a small reward for verified corrections.
How the data is verified
- Every program is added by hand, not scraped. Each entry takes 30-60 minutes.
- Commission rates come from the program's official affiliate dashboard (we apply to every program), not from third-party blogs.
- The verification date stamp on each program page shows when it was last checked. Anything older than 90 days gets flagged for re-verification.
- Risk ratings reflect documented platform issues — DOJ filings, payout complaints, geographic blocks — not vibes.
- When a program cuts rates or changes terms, the change usually lands within a week. Subscribers get rate-change alerts by email.
How we make money
When you sign up to a program through a Payout link, we may receive a referral commission. That commission does not influence rankings — rankings come from objective scoring on commission rate, payout speed, geo coverage, risk level, and community rating. If a program offers a higher kickback to us but pays affiliates less, it ranks lower, not higher.
No paid placements. No sponsored rankings. No private deals.
