   * Upload a .XLS, .XLSX, or .CSV file.

     <div data-gb-custom-block data-tag="hint" data-style="info" class="hint hint-info"><p><strong>Note:</strong> The maximum number of payout groups you can upload at once is 4,000. If your file exceeds this, you’ll need to split it across multiple uploads.</p></div>
   * See the [Payout Group File Format](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1EMKTJr24qSHVtFzPkBpWg_wFF7IK94VGCkdyi3vyHCU/edit?usp=sharing) for accepted values and an example file on sheet 2.
   * If you have multiple payout rules, you can drag them around to change their rank after you upload them.
   * To set multiple rules in one rank, put each rule in square brackets ( `[]` ) and connect them with `AND`, as seen below:

If one or more of these headers don't match exactly, the submission will result in an error.</p></div>
