How Amazon KDP pays out
Amazon KDP pays book royalties by direct deposit, and lets you pick a supported bank location rather than your country of residence. Choose the United States and you can enter a US account and routing number and be paid in US dollars. KDP requires no US company.
Set it up once
Open a Poplin account
You verify your identity when you sign up, and you get USD account details: a US account number and routing number.
Add them in Amazon KDP
In KDP, open Account → Getting Paid, add a bank account with the United States as the bank location, and enter your Poplin US account number and routing number.
Get paid
Every payout lands as dollars in a balance only you control — Poplin can’t spend, move, or freeze your balance.
Good to know: KDP only shows the bank locations it currently supports, pays each Amazon marketplace’s royalties on its own schedule, and collects a tax interview (a W-8BEN for non-US authors).
Why not just use a local bank?
Local bank / no US account
- Converted to local currency at a marked-up rate
- A US company or US bank needed, for most USD payouts
- No dollar balance — money lands already converted
Get paid into Poplin
- Paid in dollars — you convert when you choose
- An identity check at signup — no US company, no US bank
- A dollar balance in your own name and control

Getting paid by Amazon KDP — FAQ
Setup Can I add my Poplin account to Amazon KDP?
Yes. Your Poplin USD account details include a US account number and routing number. In Amazon KDP, add them as a US bank (ACH) withdrawal method.
Eligibility Do I need a US company or US bank to get paid by Amazon KDP?
No. You can open a Poplin USD account in your own name from 225 countries with no US company and no US bank, then use it as your Amazon KDP payout method.
Speed How long do Amazon KDP payouts take to arrive?
An ACH credit is available in your Poplin account the next business day or sooner once Amazon KDP releases it — that speed is set by the ACH network, not Poplin. Before that, Amazon KDP has its own processing time, which can run several business days, so its payout schedule is the timeline to check.
Cost What does it cost to get paid from Amazon KDP into Poplin?
There’s no fee to open or hold a Poplin account. Receiving is 0.5% for business and 1% for personal, plus a fixed fee on USD ($0.50) and AED ($5.00) — the full schedule is on our pricing page. Amazon KDP’s own withdrawal fees are separate.
