IMPORTANT: Due to an issue with our payment processing partner, we are currently unable to process ZAR payments. We hope to resume the service soon.

Contact our support team for more information.


You need to enter your payout details in order to transfer your collected funds. This article will first explain how to do payouts to your own personal account. Then, we discuss how to do payouts to a company account or send money internationally. Please note that ZAR payouts cost 60 ZAR per transfer. Additionally, there might be an intermediary bank and receiving fee charged by your bank due to wire transfers.

Transfer money to your personal ZAR bank account 

Go to the payout page by clicking on your name in the upper right corner and selecting "Payments". Select "My Accounts" from the left-hand side selection. You can always access your payout accounts through this link.

Click on "Add Local Payout Account":


After selecting the currency, you will be prompted to choose whether the account is a personal or a company account.

You will then be asked to provide the following information (please see screenshot). 

KYC documents must be submitted under one of the following languages: French, Belgian, English, German, Dutch, Spanish, Italian and Portuguese.

If a document isn’t available in one of the above languages, an official translation in French or English will be needed, or even required.

Please note that passports are the only accepted documents for ID verification.

After clicking Validate, your information will be sent to our payment provider Mangopay. Your documents will be verified in 1-2 business days. After that you can initiate a payout (60 ZAR per payout).

You have now added your payout method and can transfer funds by clicking on "Transfer". Payouts take 2-3 business days to arrive at the destination bank account.

"Transfer" button not available? 

If you have added a payout method but you do NOT see the "Transfer" button to the right of the payout method, it means that your ID verification is not yet complete. Please contact the WeTravel team so we can verify your identity and activate payouts for your account. See here how to get verified for payouts.
