[Engage] → Contracts → Template Terms.
Find the template term to which you want to add a payout limit, then, under Actions, select
[Drop-down menu] → Modify Terms.
Next to Limits,
[Toggle on] Specify limits on payable items.
From the drop-down list, select payout or actions, then set up your limit.

Set a maximum amount the partner can receive.
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.
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 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.
