How to Cash Out on Bookshop.org:

  • You’ll need to have a minimum of $20 in earnings to cash out (Bookshop.org pays a transaction fee on all cashouts which we don’t pass on to you, so we need this threshold to ensure we don’t have onerous fees).
  • The 14 day return/refund period on the transaction must have elapsed.
  • If you meet those two requirements, you can cash out at any time.


We use Stripe Connect to transfer your funds to your bank. Stripe is a PCI Service Provider Level 1 which is the highest grade of payment processing security. 


To cash out:

1. Go to your affiliate dashboard. If you have funds eligible for cash out, a “cash out” button will be visible:




Click “CASH OUT” and you’ll be taken to the Stripe Connect screen. Enter your information as required.





2. After connecting Stripe to your checking account, you’ll see a confirmation message at the top of your ledger.


3. Click “Cash Out” again. The funds will be transferred to your bank account; you should see them within 2 business days. The paid-out transactions will be marked as “Paid."
