Does anybody know where the amount of earned money since the last payment can be found?? I searched iStock site and this new ESP-Getty-thing. No luck! Am I blind or just stupid? Thanks in advance.

Based on when January's results were released, should be around the 20th just before payments are made. I could be wrong.

Neither blind nor stupid.  At present it just isn't available while iStock are switching systems.  They do say they will be improving things at some so far undefined date, but for now there is no way to tell until the 20th of the month when they will report earnings from the previous month - so even that will only give February earnings and your payment due, not anything earned in March.

At least, I think that's the case!

You can get a partial indication from DeepMeta 2, which doesn't work anymore for uploads but does still fetch the current balance for credit sales - except it may not be accurate!  It will also fetch the latest credit sales if you tell it to update statistics.

You can see the same figure here

for February and for March up to yesterday (by floating your mouse pointer over the bar or moving to next month) but likewise, it doesn't include subs, PP or GI and may not be accurate anyway as the royalties have changed and I don't think it reflects that.

Probably best to just wait till the 20th and the next incomprehensible report...

So it is coming in the future. Very well, then. Thank you!

Some are saying that sales information is available on the original iStockphoto site but I cannot see any such details there.
