When can I best pull my port from 123RF? They pay you the balance you had when its over 50$ at the end of the month.

So does that mean if I want to leave with a 0$ balance (because I dont want the greedy kants to get any extra $$ from me) I need to delete my port on the 1st of the month, after the month I go over 50$?

I already let DT have my measily 11$ in royalties, but I dont want to be stupid like that again

As far as I have calculation at the end of the month, payment by 15th of full amount >$50. So 1st of a month in which you get paid should be best I presume.

As soon as you go over $50 - but perhaps make it a bit over in case they take back any refunds - delete your images. You don't need to wait for the end of the month.

After you've been paid you could close your account, but I'd leave it open with no images. You never know what will change, who might buy them or other things that may leave you in a better position if you go back to an account that had prior sales. In their current scheme, it wouldn't do yo much good as it's a rolling 12 month scheme, but as we all know things change...

Thank you Charl and Jo.

They BETTER stand up and payout anyone who wants to leave.

Some companies are decent about paying when they aren't legally required to, but I wouldn't count on it.

Most of the TOS say they can change terms and that they pay out only over $nn. 123rf isn't required to pay those leaving because of a TOS change they don't agree with

One of the reasons I suggested to wait till payment is actually due = just after end of month (to avoid any unnecessary little miscommunications/ misunderstandings)

. Rather safe than sorry at this stage.

I wouldn't leave if i were you. Just don't upload any more if that would satisfy you. I just had a sale on Christmas day. So there are buyers out there and you never know when you'll get a sale.

I think you are missing the point

Go check the 123RF forums Dan. This has nothing to do with sales.
