# How to create a payout

Before creating a manual payout via the Back Office, make sure that the **manual** withdrawal method is created and enabled. To do this, navigate to **System** > **Payout system** > **Payout methods**. If the **manual** withdrawal method is not displayed on the **Payout methods** page, create the method by following the instructions described in [How to add a manual deposit or withdrawal method](https://docs.b2core.b2broker.com/how-to-articles/manage-payment-methods/how-to-add-the-manual-deposit-or-withdrawal-method).

After the **manual** withdrawal method is created and enabled, follow the steps below to create a payout.
