Payment Question

1. 91

   WriterJanisposted 9 years ago

   When the numbers come in for this month, I should reach my first payout. Do I need to do anything to get the payment or is it automatic? Also, do you have to reach $50 each time to get paid or do you get paid monthly after the first payout?
   TIA!

      Congratulations on reaching your first payout! As long as you've entered your PayPal information correctly the payment will be automatic. We need to have fifty dollars or more in our account in order to be paid for a month. If we don't reach fifty dollars, the money is held over to the next month, or to a month when the total amount of money in our account has reached at least fifty dollars.

      Good for you, Janis.
      
      When you reach payout (50.00), you will automatically receive payment the following  month to your PayPal account.  We get paid only when we reach payout . If you have reached payout this month, you will be sent your check on the 28th of next month.

         Are you sure you have the correct email in your settings as your PayPal account?
         
         Go to your "My Account", click on "Earnings" then scroll down to the bottom to Payment Settings to make sure you have entered your PayPal account.

            Yes, I did look that up.  It does have my email address.  So I don't know what else I can do.

         There are two places to give HP an email address.  One is for where notices should be sent to you and the other is for your PayPal account.  The email addresses you give can be different.
         
         To make sure that HP has the correct email address associated with your PayPal account, go here:
         
         My Account > Earnings > Settings > Payment Settings.

   I reached my first payment last month, but the payment was not received until this month, as they all are done that way.  I got an email message from Pay Pal to let me know payment was received.  Then, all you do is wait for Pay Pal to clear payment, and then it is your money to do with as you wish.
   
   Congrats on your first payout!

   I'll just add that we got paid yesterday.  It usually comes on the 28th of the month, so expect payments on September 28th for all funds due you at the close of the books on August 31st.

      I learned that that is not always the case.  I made monthly payouts three months in a row, and then it slowed down to every other month, and even every third month. My CPMs were larger those three months.

    Congratulations!!!  8 months & 11 hubs & already a payout.  Good for you!  I checked out some of your hubs & they look fun & interesting & they have lots of comments.  May I ask how you drive so much traffic to your hubs?  I'd love to get more traffic.
