Are people getting paid in a reasonably timely manner from Revostock these days?  I have a pending payment going back a couple of months now and still haven't seen anything even though the 15th has passed (again).

No. You may want to read this, if you haven't already:

I'm bumping this up and asking if anyone has been paid lately. I'm getting a little annoyed. They don't owe me much but getting paid is part of the scheme. I understand they are having a difficult time with lawyers but that only goes so far. If they are that far gone then I should leave before they owe more.

One last bump on this thread.

Although I have been told I would get paid. I haven't. I asked for my account to be terminated today. For those of you new to video I would go slow with Revo for the time being. Others may be getting paid but I haven't. I hope their problems get resolved but offloading them to their contributors is not the way to go.

Not getting paid from Revo either.

I waited about 4 months for about a $190 payment and then sent them an email asking how much longer before I would be paid. They paid the next week. So, I wouldn't give up on them yet.

It's been over two months since I got that email and haven't seen anything yet. I can't recall how long since I made the first request for payment. If you get paid this time, will you get paid next time?

I requested a payout almost exactly EIGHT months ago; still nada.

I was thinking they'd pay ordered by payment request date, but I guess not.

I really hope(d) Revo would make it, but it doesn't look good.

I request payout yesterday and today in the morning my money was on Skrill without any problems.

Depends on the amount you want to withdraw ...If you want to withdraw 100 $ deal is simple, but for more than 100 $ can take a week or even more  ;D

Have they changed their method of payout?

It used to be that you had to request payout by the 8th of the month in order to get paid on the 15th of the same month.

I'm wondering why you'd get paid immediately but I still haven't been paid after eight months?  :o  ;D

I've summited a ticked and emailed supports two days ago, but no reply and no paid! I just expect some Revostock stuff can explain this problem, but nobody! so now I'm very disappointed! It's so unfair! I'm asking myself if I should leave here, a part of my heart is frozen this moment! :( :( :(

Hi Friends!

It's Craig, RevoStock Founder/CEO.  I apologize that I am just responding to this.  Thankfully a couple of our kind Revo producers made me aware of this thread so I could address it.

I have to admit I was a little surprised to see it as I am very serious about communication, and any helpdesk ticket ,especially related to payments, is almost always swiftly answered.  I definitely encourage anyone who ever has concerns about any issue related to our site to send us a helpdesk ticket first.  You will be answered quickly and graciously. :) 

I have been outspoken about our Patent Troll lawsuit and the effect it had on our small self-funded/bootstrapped company.  I assure you, Patent Trolls suck and if you aren't aware of the damage they are doing to small businesses like ours, please read my post.

After about 2 years, this lawsuit was finally dismissed.  A bittersweet victory for us.

The residual effects of the lawsuit did require us to begin delaying some payments right around the time the lawsuit was dismissed.  However, there was full communication via our Producer News and emails/helpdesk.  Thankfully we had enormous  and heartwarming support from our Producers allowing us to start coming back from the "Patent Troll" years.  It has allowed us to re-group and move forward.

In fact, we have a new Revo coming out this very week!  New features and innovations I think our producers and customers will love!  Get ready!

So, if you ever have any concerns at all about payments or anything else, please check our Producer News or contact us via our helpdesk.  I personally would love to help you! :)

Craig

Thanks for the great communication Craig!

I can confirm that a message to support last week requesting my held money was responded to by Craig himself in a timely matter, included a sincere thank you, and my money was transferred to my Paypal immediately. I'll continue to support Revostock, happily.

My problem is, I hate to ask for the money, as I don't absolutely need it right now and Revostock does.  OTOH, I can't afford to never get it.

But it would be nice if they paid without my asking, so I could feel they're making progress and paying the oldest requests, slowly, but in chronological order.

I did send a message to Craig around the time I posted the update to this thread. He got back to me quickly and made payment a couple days later. We had a nice offline chat.

He has had a pretty hard time with the patent troll suit and shows a good deal of tenacity by hanging on and continuing with the business. I see no reason to pull my portfolio now. Thanks.

I think Revostock should email every producer to discribe the issues rather than we ask again and again, that's our rights, which is basic courtesy for all the producers. you're probably happy when you get the payments, but the other guys who didn't get paid only have to wait several months, trust is not you several people get paid but the basic courtesy for all the guys!

I requested to be paid over a year ago and no response from anyone at revostock. They can give away drones at NAB but can't afford to pay their producers. Ridiculous.

I have been with them for 6 months. I've had 2 sales, not requested payout.  They have been around awhile so I think it's safe to say they are like the MostPhotos of video, very rare sales. I think Revo and Motion Elements are dead.

Haven't seen a payment since March.  Sales continue, actually picking up.  Where's the money going?  It's ridiculous to have to keep reaching out and hoping for money that they are making off my work!

I haven't get any payment. I'm still waiting three mounts. I want to close my account.

In the end, I closed my account. I did get paid out but it seemed a rather drastic measure to have to take just to get what was mine.

I have similar experience as You guys. Revo delayed my payment so I asked for it and I got it real quick. Now however my payments are overdue again, and my request for payment got no reply for a month or more. Today I send an other one, we will see hoe this one goes.

I have to say I am quite frustrated with a company that can not spare my share of the money they got from the client!

I decided to deactivate my entire portfolio. When they are back on track with a 100% of their payments I will consider doing business with them again.
