Tipalti is the all-in-one solution for payouts, filing your taxes, and managing your money with AvantLink. This step-by-step guide will lead you through the process of getting everything updated for a pain free payout experience including:
MANAGE PAYMENT AND TAX INFORMATION
All payout methods and tax requirements are now found by navigating from the menu button > Payment Settings > Payment & Tax:
For extra security precaution, you will be prompted to retrieve a security code via AvantLink's two-factor authentication process.
Once account authentication has been confirmed, you can now enter all contact information. Pay extra attention to the "Type" by filing as 'Individual' or 'Company' and select 'Next'.
An unrecognized address will require an additional verification to make sure it is correct.
PAYMENT METHOD
Choosing a payment method will determine what information is required to start getting paid.
Any fees that are associated with the payment method you've chosen will be listed underneath the Payment Method selection.
US TAX FORMS
All US tax forms are available right in the software. Tipalti also includes a quick and easy questionnaire that will tell you exactly what kind of tax form you will need to file if you are using a US based affiliate account.
We now offer most tax forms right inside your account. The tax forms included are:
- W-8BEN
- W-8BEN-E
- W9
- W-8ECI
- W-8IMY
- W-8EXP
- 8233
If you're unsure which form to file, simply fill out the questionnaire.
CANADIAN AND AUSTRALIAN TAX INFORMATION
For Canadian affiliate accounts doing business in Canada you'll need to provide your tax ID.
For Australian affiliate accounts doing business in Australia you'll need to have a TFN (Tax File Number).
Fees do apply for PayPal, eCheck, and Wire Transfer. The fees are calculated on the Payment Method page of the Tipalti platform.
If you are an affiliate in CA or AU but you wish to be paid in USD, our support staff can allow you to be paid in a different country. To enable this please email support@avantlink.com and they will be able to update your account.
Once updated, navigate to Account > Manage Payment and Tax Info. From the Address page, you will see the option to be paid in a different country.
Select the United States and you'll be able to have payments sent to your US account in USD.
Once you've submitted your tax information you will be ready to start earning with AvantLink!
TAX INFORMATION FOR AFFILIATES OUTSIDE OF THE US, CANADA, OR AUSTRALIA
If you are an affiliate in the US, Canada, or Australian network based outside of these countries, please email support@avantlink to set up your tax information.

Filing the proper tax forms is imperative to receiving your payout. Any questions as to whether the tax forms were filed properly or information about your Tipalti account can be directed to accounting@avantlink.com or support@avantlink.com.
