# Payout Frequency Not Supported

> Guile runs payouts weekly, biweekly, semimonthly, or monthly

## Cause

You asked Guile to pay this business out on a cadence it does not run. Nothing
was saved and no money moved.

## Fix

Send one of the four cadences Guile schedules when you
[configure a business's payout preferences](/api-reference/businesses/configure-a-business-s-payout-preferences):

| `frequency`   | When the money lands                      |
| ------------- | ----------------------------------------- |
| `weekly`      | Once a week, on the weekday you pick      |
| `biweekly`    | Every other week, on the weekday you pick |
| `semimonthly` | Twice a month, on the 1st and the 15th    |
| `monthly`     | Once a month, on a day from 1 to 28       |

`daily`, `quarterly`, and `annually` are real frequencies elsewhere in the API.
Payouts do not use them.
