# Payment Methods

> How to set up your payment method and receive your earnings from WorkBolt.

## Payment provider

WorkBolt uses **[Dots](https://usedots.com)** to process all payments. Dots is a secure payment platform that handles identity verification and fund transfers, supporting payouts in 190+ countries via bank transfers, PayPal, Venmo, and more. You'll set up your Dots account as part of the final onboarding step after your application is approved.
