If you are a US creator, you have the option to receive payout to PayPal or your checking account via direct deposit. If you're an international creator, you can receive payout via Payoneer or through PayPal.
If you are a non-US creator, you can learn more about your options for receiving payouts, here: What are my Payout fees as a non-US creator?
Transfer fees
Your Patreon account balance already reflects the removal of your platform fee and payment processing fees, which vary based on your patrons’ method of payment. When you manually withdraw your balance, or have Patreon do an automatic withdraw on the 5th of the month, an additional fee is removed based on your payout method.

- US creators receiving payout via PayPal: 1% of the amount transferred with a minimum of $0.25, capped at $20.00 USD

Setting up a Payout Method
