Understanding payouts on GitHub sponsors

Hi,

I have very recently entered the GitHub sponsor program and wish to understand the payouts.
On my connected Stripe account I see the following:

Whereas there are some funds to be transferred to the bank, but none in the "Available to...".
I also saw it mentions I use "manual payouts", so I looked for a manual withraw button, but after some reading I mainly want to make sure I understand how this works.

From my understanding, I'm not supposed to withraw anything manually. It's the GitHub platform that handles these stuff for me automatically after I reached my probation period?

I do see this on GitHub:

So my stripe account is only for connecting the bank info, but its GitHub that is reponsible for automatic rethrawal? Or do I need to do something active?

Hey @doronz88! Thanks for reaching out 👋

Yes, that's correct! Profiles and their linked Stripe accounts are automatically moved to automated payouts after the probation period.

The probation period begins on the day you receive your first sponsorship and lasts for 60 days. Once this period ends, payouts are processed automatically on a monthly basis, typically around the 22nd of each month.

Hope it helps :)
