When Do I Get Paid?
Steps to help you avoid hiccups in the payment process
One of the most universal questions—after “Are these dishes clean or dirty?”—has to be, “When am I going to get paid?” Well, no need to fret here at the Yahoo! Publisher Network. Here are a few administrative items to keep in mind to help avoid any hiccups in the payment process.
Payment methods
As we noted in a previous blog article, the Yahoo! Publisher Network has three methods of payment available to our publishers: check, direct deposit or PayPal. Once the method of payment is verified, you can expect to see payments no later than the last day of each month.
Please note that if you’ve opted to receive payment by check, you should allow approximately seven to 10 business days for mail delivery. If you selected the PayPal payment option, remember that the name on the PayPal account should match the name on the YPN account for purposes of verification. If they don’t match, the payment would go out by check or other methods you’ve previously selected.
Revenue accrual
Revenue accrues over the course of the calendar month. Payments for the previous month’s revenue are issued no later than the last day of the following calendar month. For example, revenue earned in May 2008 will be paid to active publishers no later than June 30, 2008. Revenue will first be transferred to your account balance prior to the payment being issued. If your account balance is at least $100 ($50 for PayPal), payments are issued within one to three business days.
Lock down period on information changes
In order to disperse payments before the end of each month, we lock down certain information from change. From the 19th to the 24th of every month the Yahoo! Publisher Network portal is locked down and no changes are permitted to the account, payment, or tax information sections. Keep in mind that many changes require a verification process that may take 10-15 business days for verification before changes go into effect.
If you change your method of payment, for example, from check to direct deposit, our process will require that we validate the bank account information. If the request for the change has not been completed before the lock-down period, payment will be made via the method that was previously verified. In this example, the payment would go out by check until the following month, when it would go out by direct deposit.
So make your changes on time to make sure you get paid the way you want to get paid.

Do you guy notice that the YPN has had problems in reporting partners website traffics accurately? It usually reports only a portion of the real traffic (may be 50-60%). As a result, you will only get a portion of the revenue that you earn. For example, if the real time report shows $10 revenue, you may only $2-$3 in the next day’s final report. They explained this as a report of adjustment. But it does not make sense that the adjustment takes 70-80% off the earning. Any feedback and comments?

Do you guy notice that the YPN has had problems in the reporting system recently? It usually reports only a portion of the real traffic (may be 50-60%). Meanwhile, you will only get a portion of the revenue that you earn. For example, if the real time report shows $10 revenue, you may only get $2-$3 in the next day’s final report. They explained this as a report of adjustment. But it does not make sense that the adjustment takes 70-80% off the earning. Let’s screen capture your real time report at the end of the day and compare to your final report result in the following day. What do you see? Any feedback and comments?
