Hello everyone, I made my first 3 sales in alamy ($ 141 dollars) what I wanted to know is if the sales were made in June when these are visible in the Current Cleared Balance or how is the process to be able to withdraw it to my paypal account, thanks from already for the help

With Alamy it may take up to 90 days for the sales to “clear” and be eligible for payout.
If yo have cleared sales of $50 or more at the end of any given month, you will be paid automatically by the middle of the following month into whatever payment process you have set up

It's because Alamy give credit terms to some customers such as the BBC and news papers.
They pay their bills quarterly (every three months) so you'll have to wait.

If you haven't already, you need to learn to read Alamy's rather obfuscating sales reports so you know where things stand. The only thing that's right up front on the dashboard is your current cleared balance - which may be $0 even if you've made sales and the gross value of sales you made in the current month.
If you click on the Sales History button, that will show you gross sales and any refunds. This money is not what you will earn - you need to see the net amount and what has cleared by clicking the Account Balance button.
For every sale, you can see the details on what your royalty is - at least, if you subtract any distributor's take and Alamy's take from the gross sale, you can see what your net amount is. On the far right is a column that shows o for cleared, x for uncleared and a date if they've paid you already.
