# Participation Bonus Report

The *Participation Bonus Report* will show you the amount you should send each partner via [Partner Funds Transfer](https://help.impact.com/brand/platform-features/finance/partner-funds-transfer/transfer-funds-to-a-partner) if you elect to send partners who did not win actions, but did contribute towards them, participation bonuses.

This report is part of the process to send participation bonuses to your partners. Learn how to [generate participation bonuses](https://help.impact.com/brand/platform-features/contracts-and-template-terms/template-terms/participation-bonuses-explained).
