Connect Your Payment Method

It’s very important that you connect your preferred method of payment when you first set up your contributor account. This ensures you’ll receive your royalties payout without delay.

To do this, simply connect your PayPal or Payoneer account from the My Seller Details tab.

Your month-end balance will be paid on the 15th day of the following month. Notice that we only pay when your earnings reach 50$, and that the numbers in your profile are based on estimated figures. An accurate report will be provided on payment date.
