Introduction
This article explains when publishers are paid, how payout thresholds work, and where to check the status of upcoming payments.
Finding Payment Information
- Open the payments or payouts section in your publisher dashboard.
- Look for a page that lists upcoming payments, payment history, and current balance.

Payout Schedule and Thresholds
Most networks:
- Pay on a regular schedule such as weekly or monthly.
- Apply a minimum payout threshold that revenue must reach before a payment is sent.
- May delay first payment until account review is complete.
Your dashboard should clearly display the threshold amount and the next scheduled payout date.
Checking Payment Status
Use the payment history table to:
- See which periods have already been paid.
- Review status values such as pending, processing, or completed.
- Download statements or invoices if they are provided.
If expected revenue is above the threshold but no payout appears, confirm the schedule and review any alerts related to compliance or verification.
