Verified vs attested payments in a payout run
Verified means a real payment rail confirmed the money (Airbnb, Stripe); attested means the operator recorded it manually. The run banner totals attested money so you review it before approving.
Every payment counted in a payout run carries one of two trust tags:
- Verified — a real rail confirmed the money arrived: an Airbnb payout event, a Stripe rent payment. Nexxus saw the confirmation itself.
- Attested — recorded manually by you or your team ("tenant paid by Zelle," "check deposited"). Nexxus is taking the operator's word for it.
Why the distinction matters
A payout run pays owners real dollars, so before you approve, you should know how much of the run rests on manual entries. The run banner totals the attested money in the draft — if that number surprises you, review those lines before approving. Verified money needs no second look; attested money deserves one.
Advance basis and attestation
Under the Advance basis, "attested" also includes the month's earned-but-not-yet-arrived rent — money you're fronting. It shows in the attested total for the same reason: it's money going out on trust rather than on a confirmed rail, and the banner makes the size of that trust visible.
Practical habit
Before approving a run: glance at the attested total → if it's roughly your expected manual-payment volume, approve; if it's high, open the lines and check for a typo'd manual payment or a duplicate entry. Thirty seconds here prevents the awkward "please send that back" conversation with an owner.

Collected cash pays owners only money that has actually arrived; Advance fronts the month's earned rent before it lands. Months on different bases self-balance automatically.
When do owners get paid? Payout windows and cadence
Your company payout day defines the collection window each run pays out. Day 10 means the June run pays rent collected May 10 → June 10; set day 1 to pay the prior month in arrears.
