Tax forms and identity verification
Complete Airwallex tax forms and identity steps before your first payout.
Updated Oct 7, 2026
Before your first payout, Rythora is required to collect:
- Identity / legal profile, legal name and taxpayer details in Distribution setup
- Tax form, completed through the Airwallex embedded tax form (W-9 for US persons, W-8BEN / W-8BEN-E for non-US persons or entities, as applicable)
- Payout (beneficiary) method, bank payout details collected through Airwallex on the Earnings page
Where to complete each step
- Open Distribution setup and finish profile, identity, and the Airwallex tax form.
- Open Earnings and complete Airwallex bank payout (beneficiary) setup.
- Once both are complete, you can request a withdrawal when your balance clears the payout threshold.
Rythora stores tax and payout completion status and limited masked details. Full bank account numbers are handled by Airwallex, not stored as full account numbers on Rythora.
Without a completed tax form we may withhold at the statutory rate or delay payouts, so complete it early.
Note: Legacy Stripe Connect payout onboarding is retired. Existing distribution clients must finish the new Airwallex tax and payout setup to receive earnings.
