payout method

[Helga9]

Hello, I know this might sound like a really really stupid question. But I am totally new to hosting and I am wondering about this payout method? what does it entail? is it nescesary to have it? and if so why? Im just not getting what it is basicly.

regards,

Helga

@Helga9  A payout method, also called Payout Preference in Airbnb lingo, is the account you designate to receive reservation payments.
