My last month's earnings and deposit into my PayPal do not match...why is this? I don't recall ever seeing this before. I don't want to go into too much detail here I suppose but am hoping I can get some better direction for my issue.
You are not paid for the current month earnings, but on a delayed cycle based on the specific program.
You can see this illustrated here.

I realize that my payment now is for November but my November earnings should match my deposit amount correct?
No, Amazon pays on a 60 day delayed cycle.
Please see the link above.
You can best see it illustrated here.

I did check the link but it wasn't registering because the Amazon $ shows in the balance but I think if I understand it correctly, that that is the norm and that though it shows, it doesn't payout and next month, I'll likely see the same thing in the other direction, yes?
Just using random numbers....if I were seeing $2 as my November earnings and only got $1.50 in my PayPal for that month, (because Amazon showed in the earnings but not the deposit because of it's cycle) then next month if it says $2 are my December earnings, I would see $2.50 in my PayPal.
Go to your balance history page.

This will tell you how your payments are calculated and what months the earnings are from.
Just keep in mind that the "You have also earned" is only the HP ad program (and Amazon and eBay) for the current month (December), and does NOT include the earned but unpaid Amazon earnings from the previous month (November).
To do the math for the December payment, you would subtract that month's (Nov) Amazon earnings and add last month's (Oct) Amazon earnings.
On December 28, we were paid for
Amazon Program Earnings (Oct 1 - Oct 31)
Ad Program Earnings (Nov 1 - Nov 30)
eBay Program Earnings (Nov 1 - Nov 30)
I had the same thing happen. I'm a Squidoo transfer so I've only had a few payouts on HP. My Amazon sales were about the same in September as October so I saw no more than a couple dollars difference in last month's payout. I read the whole TOS back in early September but my memory just isn't what it used to be.
This time, the difference was pretty big but that just means that November sales were much better than October sales. But I made an ass of myself and reported it because I didn't remember those sentences from the TOS.
Thanks all. I've been here a while and guess I just never noticed or paid it mind. I appreciate the feedback.

So how is everyone's earnings from Amazon going for December? I'm up to $134.00 already and sold 16 items yesterday. I will beat last month no problem.I'm hoping the next few weeks has a lot of last minute shoppers, and I think that will happen. How about you?

I am wondering if anybody else has noticed a good sized drop in Amazon earnings this month. I'm usually at 3 figure per month, but this month it's possible I won't even make payout. Something doesn't seem right here. Anybody?

We are going to increase Amazon earnings for most of you! Amazon is becoming part of the HP Earnings program. In early November folks will have the opportunity to switch to get paid their Amazon earnings through the HP Earnings program. For new Hubbers, this will greatly simplify...

We have another thread connected to this, but no-one from the staff side has responded. The recent changes in the structure of Amazon commission seem to have had a detrimental affect. While the number of sales has not decreased, earnings have halved this month.89 shipped sales (103 total sales so...

It used to be that if we dropped all Amazon ads on our hubs/essays/articles and just went with Hubpages ad program, it would increase our overall earnings, so I dropped all my Amazon ads/earnings. Is that still the case? I have three or four hub/articles that would do well promoting a product, and...

I'm having an issue with the earnings reporting on one of my accounts (beckisgiftguides). At the top of the earnings reports page, it shows an amount ~$30 MORE (for November) than is listed on the balance history page (for November). I'm not sure which accounting is accurate, though I would guess...
