Note: Automated Payouts is currently only available to companies based in the United States.
UK based companies can utilise Split Payments, which acts very similarly to Automated Payouts.
In order to use Automated Payouts, you will first need to sign up to a Stripe Express account via TutorCruncher. Once that is done, navigate to System > Settings > Payment Integrations > Card Payments with Stripe and open the ‘Settings’ tab of your Stripe account overview, where you will find the ‘Automated Payouts’ checkbox - here you will have the option to enable or disable Automated Payouts on your branch.

You will also need to ensure that the Tutor assigned to the Job/Lesson that you want to have Automated Payouts for has signed up for a Stripe payouts account. Your Tutors can do this by logging into TutorCruncher and opening the 'My Profile' section of their dashboard. From there, they can select Sign Up Now within the 'Payouts Account' panel on their profile to sign up for a Stripe Payouts account.
