Hello, how can we help you?

How long does it take to get paid?

Quick answer

If you’ve sold previously, you’ll get paid within five business days of the carrier confirming that the item is in transit. If it’s your first sale or you sold with local pickup, you’ll be paid within five business days of the item being delivered (or “marked as received” in the case of local pickup.) US sellers can get paid even faster by opting into Reverb Wallet.

Be sure you have your bank account information and a billing card on file. If there’s no bank account on file at the time payment is sent, you’ll receive a Payout Balance that will automatically get transferred to your bank account once it’s added. Learn how to manually transfer your Payout Balance.
