Title: Will Rodeo ever pay us ?
Post by: Anyka on December 20, 2013, 10:39
I often read topics about slow payment, and then "slow" means 2 to 3 weeks.

If 2 or 3 weeks is slow, what about 1 year ?

When was your last Rodeo pay-out?  I had one on 23 November 2012 (payment up till Oct12), and when I complained in May 2013, they sent me payment for November 2012, so by the end of this month, Rodeo will owe me 12 months royalties (which happens to be more than 800 dollars). 
Also in May, Rodeo let me know that sales had gone down significantly (I already knew that!) and I should not expect any payments until November.  Well, November has gone now ...

A couple of weeks ago I sent another enquiry, but I have not had any reply yet (or payment).

From other Rodeo contributors I heard that I'm not alone.  So here's my question :  how many Rodeo contributors are there on MicroStockGroup?  When was your last pay-out and have you contacted Rodeo about it?

I  have images on Rodeo. My last payment from them was May 2013. I have not contacted them because my I knew my sales there had been going down and in fact I have not gotten around to contributing new images there for a long time. Plus Yuha has always seemed like a nice guy and I am not worried about him cheating me out of a few euros. I figured he will pay me someday if he owes me anything.

Did they not give you a link and password to view your sales/royalties on-line?  Part of the Rodeo site is now in English (the contributor part).  The e-mails we used to receive have been replaced by a contributor page on the website where we can view our sales.  If you have not visited the site since May 2013  (or if you don't have a password), then you might be in for a nice surprise ...

Wow ... 1 reply and 1 PM.  Does this mean there's only 3 of us MSG'ers with images on Rodeo?

I also hoped to get an Xmas present and be paid by Juha, but unfortunately I was not :(.
Guess the Finn folks spend and lot on Christmas themselves so they needed our money.

 ;D  You sound as if being paid by an agency is a "present" ... 
I wasn't paid either by Rodeo for Christmas - I did not even get a REPLY for Christmas (to my e-mail).

You can only get onto your own contributor page if you ask for a login.  And also :  the contributor site royalty reports only start half-way January, so you have to check your e-mail reports and add the totals of December 2012 and half of January 2013 to know how much they still owe you.
