Your payout balance contains funds that are available to you for transfers and payments. Your payout balance must be funded for you to be able to initiate transfers from your Flutterwave account. You can fund your payout balance by:

• Receiving payments in different currencies which is then settled to your payout balance, if enabled

• Making a transfer to your virtual account number

• Wallet transfer from a different currency.
