Payout Schedule

Payout Frequency & Minimum

Payouts are weekly and processed on Tuesdays. Usually, bank transfers should arrive before the end of the week.

Please note that we will only pay your earnings if the total amount exceeds the payout minimum you have set.

Every Tuesday, we process payouts for all payout methods.

If the sum of your earnings 'Available for payout now' in both USD and Euros is above the payout minimum of your Active payout method, then we will automatically pay your earnings.

How long before I receive my money?

SEPA transfers should arrive instantly or within a business day (depending on your bank).
CosmoPayment payouts should arrive immediately.
YourSafe payouts should arrive immediately.
ACH transfers should take a few business days.
SWIFT transfers take the longest: usually a few business days, but sometimes up to 7 business days, depending on the intermediary banks.

Please note that we are in Europe and operate in GMT+2.

We will notify you as soon as we issue your payout.

We payout 16 days in arrears

Please note that we payout 16 days in arrears, meaning your claimed earnings are available for payout 16 days after the sale date.

Earnings currently waiting for the 16 days to end will show in your balance as 'Available for payout < 16 days'. As soon as the period ends, they will show under 'Available for payout now' and be part of your next payout.

Our payment processing fee (and potential VAT) only becomes due once the 16-day period is over.

We have a Rolling Reserve

Please note that we have a 5% Rolling Reserve, meaning 5% of your claimed earnings are available for payout 180 days after the sale date.

Earnings currently waiting for the 180-day period to end will show in your balance as 'Rolling Reserve'. As soon as the period ends, they will show under 'Available for payout now' and be part of your next payout.

Examples

Example 1:

You receive a $100 donation via 3D Secure payment on Sunday, January 1, 2023
Your earnings are automatically claimed since it is a donation
$5 goes to Rolling Reserve and will become available for payout 180 days later on Friday, June 30, 2023
Our payment processing fee is 5% = $5
$100 - $5 - $5 = $90. So $90 is in arrears and will become available for payout 16 days later on Tuesday, January 17, 2023
Tuesday, January 17, 2023, is a payout day, so you receive a $90 payment (plus the earnings of other sales if applicable) minus our transfer fee
On Friday, June 30, 2023, your $5 in Rolling Reserve becomes available for payout
Tuesday, July 4, 2023, is a payout day so you receive the $5 that were in the Rolling Reserve (plus the earnings of other sales if applicable)

Example 2: When you must claim your earnings

You sell a $100 custom video via 3D Secure payment on Sunday, January 1, 2023
Our payment processing fee is 5% = $5
To claim your earnings, you must upload your creation to FairPay; until then your $95 earnings show as 'To claim'
You upload the video 1 week later, on Sunday, January 8, 2023
Your earnings are claimed automatically: $5 goes to Rolling Reserve until Friday, June 30, 2023, and $90 is in arrears until Tuesday, January 17, 2023
Tuesday, January 17, 2023, is a payout day, so you receive a $90 payment (plus the earnings of other sales if applicable) minus our transfer fee
On Friday, June 30, 2023, your $5 in Rolling Reserve becomes available for payout
Tuesday, July 4, 2023, is a payout day so you receive the $5 that were in the Rolling Reserve (plus the earnings of other sales if applicable)
