Last updated on Jul 08, 2026

How to Send a Manager Payout

  1. Go to Settings → Rentals → Managers
  2. Click the green Send Manager Payout button in the top-right corner
  3. In the payout modal, review the manager's earned commissions
  4. Confirm the payment amount
  5. Click Send

How Manager Commissions Work

Each manager has a commission rate (displayed as a percentage in the manager table). This rate is applied to your organization's top-line rental revenue to calculate their commission.

For example, if a manager has a 10% commission rate and your rentals generated $50,000 in revenue this month, their commission would be $5,000.

Changing a Manager's Commission Rate

To update a manager's commission rate, you need to remove them and re-add them with the new rate. This ensures the rate change is tracked and applied going forward.

Mercury Banking Integration

If you've connected Mercury Banking, manager payouts can be sent directly as bank transfers. Without Mercury, record payments manually for tracking purposes.

Tracking Commission History

For detailed commission tracking beyond the settings page:

  • Reports → Commissions — Full admin view of all recorded commissions and payments across the organization
  • Reports → My Commissions — Individual managers can view their personal performance, earnings, and payment history

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between Manager Payouts and Commission Payments?
Manager Payouts (here in Settings) are quick payouts. The Commission Report (Reports → Commissions) provides a more detailed system where you can record individual commissions per rental, track what's been paid vs. outstanding, and create formal commission payments.

Can a person be both a manager and a porter?
Yes. A team member can be added to both the Porters and Managers lists. They'll earn the porter rate for deliveries and the commission rate on rental revenue independently.
