What happens if I don’t reach the minimum payout in a cycle?

Nothing is lost. Your earnings roll over to the next weekly cycle and keep adding up until your payable balance reaches the $100 minimum. Then you can be paid.

How it works

  • The minimum payout is $100. Your exact minimum is shown on your Dashboard and the Payments page.
  • Balances below the minimum carry over to the following week. They don't expire and aren't reset.
  • A payout request can be any amount between the minimum and your Payable now balance.
  • With Automatic payouts switched on, we file the request for you on the first Monday your balance is over the minimum.

Why is my payable balance lower than my earnings?

Invalid traffic found after the fact is deducted before earnings become payable, and earnings under a quality review may be held while we check them. Each deduction appears as a Quality deduction in your Transactions list. If a line looks wrong, click Dispute a statement line on the Payments page, within 60 days of the payout date.

If you close your account

Valid earnings still due are paid in the normal payout cycle, provided they reach $100.
