# Set Payout Limits
With template term *Limits*, you can either choose to curb the payout to partners within a specified timeframe or the number of payable actions. These limits can be applied to the contract as a whole, per customer, per order, or per click.
1. From the left navigation bar, select  **\[Engage] → Contracts →** [Template Terms](https://app.impact.com/secure/advertiser/engage/contracts/library/view-manage-ios-flow.ihtml).
2. Find the template term to which you want to add a payout limit, hover over the row, and select  **\[More]** → **Modify Terms**.
3. Next to *Limits*,  **\[Toggle on]** **Specify limits on payable items**.
4. From the drop-down list, select **payout** or **actions**, then set up your limit.

{% tab title="Payout" %}
1. From the  **\[Drop-down menu]**, select **Payout**.
2. Set a maximum amount that the partner can receive.
3. Select a limit type from the following options: *All* (applies for the entire contract between you and a partner), *per order*, *per customer*, or *per click*.
4. If you set the payout limit to *All* or *per customer*, you can also set *when to reset* payouts that contribute to that limit.
* **Per Day**
* **Per Week** — Starts next Monday by default.
* **Per Month** — Starts immediately. If this limit was already in place and you're updating it, payouts from the 1st of the month will be considered.
* **Per Quarter** — Starts immediately. If this limit was already in place and you're updating it, payouts from the beginning of the [financial quarter](https://www.investopedia.com/terms/q/quarter.asp) will be considered.
* **For Duration of Contract**

5. If you choose to limit payouts *per day*, select if you want a custom weekend limit, then enter what you want the weekend limit to be.
* The number you choose here will overrule the regular limit you set.
* If you choose to limit payouts *per week*, *month*, *quarter*, or *contract duration*, weekends will always be included in the overall limit and can't be given custom limits.
6. To implement the new payout limit from the modification start date, select  **\[Unchecked box]** **Reset accrued spending for all partners**. If you leave the option disabled, the new payout limit will be applied from the original contract start date.
