Hello, a customer checked out using one of my payment methods (Shop Pay) . The order was placed on Dec 9th. However, today is Dec 14th and I have yet to see the transaction as being “paid out”. Any idea when I will receive my funds for this order? The customer has already received the goods etc
Topic summary
Issue: A merchant’s Shop Pay Installments order from Dec 9 still hasn’t appeared as “paid out” by Dec 14, despite the customer receiving the goods. Screenshots confirm the order was paid, but no payout entry exists.
Expected timing: Support notes Shop Pay Installments payouts typically arrive within 1–3 business days after payment capture. Bank statements should show the descriptor “SHOPPAYINSTAFRM.”
Troubleshooting steps: Check the Payouts section for any failed payout banner and reason. Filter transactions via Admin > Settings > Payments > View payouts > View transactions > Filter: Payment Method = Shop Pay Installments.
Findings: No failed payout banner is visible, and the merchant reports there was never a payout record for the order. Shared images are central to confirming payment status versus payout status.
Next actions: Because account-specific review is required, support directed the merchant to contact Shopify via the support portal (live chat, email, or callback) to liaise with billing.
Status: Unresolved/ongoing. Another participant asks if a resolution was found, with no confirmation provided yet.
Hi @Fbaker28 .
Thank you for reaching out here in the Shopify Community! I can appreciate it may be frustrating when you have not received your payout yet, not to worry I am here to help you.
Once a buyer’s payment is successfully captured, you expect to receive the payout for a Shop Pay order within 1-3 business days. As we are now on the fourth business day, can you tell me if there is any banner within the Payouts section of the admin saying that the payout has failed, or what is the current status? If you can send a screenshot, that would be a great help, and making sure to blur out any sensitive information!
The banner will mention that it’s specifically a payout for Shop Pay, the reason for failure, and suggested next steps. In addition to that, Payouts go to the same bank account used for Shopify Payments and the bank descriptor will be: SHOPPAYINSTAFRM. Are you able to see the same on your statement?
Hoping to hear back from you soon!
Hey @Fbaker28 .
Thank you for sharing those screenshots to show the order has been paid for.
Are you able to provide a screenshot of the specific transaction in the Payouts section of your admin? Here are the steps to locate it below:
- From your Shopify admin, go to Settings.
- Click Payments.
- In the Shopify Payments section, click View payouts.
- Click View transactions.
- Click Filter.
- In the Show all resources where field, select Payment Method.
- In the is field, select Shop Pay Installments.
- Click Add filter.
If you could grab me that screenshot, I’ll be able to have a closer look for you. Thanks so much!
There never was a payout for it
Hi @Fbaker28 .
Thanks for your screenshot and for clarifying things further! As we cannot see a failed payout banner in the payout admin, it looks like we’ll need to access your account in order to resolve this issue and liaise with our billing department.
While we’re not able to provide account-specific support via the Shopify Community at this time, we’d be happy to continue assisting you through live chat, email, or callback. Please visit our support portal here and log in to your account to create a support request.
