you'll have to mantain patience until the half of the month after to see actually how much you have earned the previous month

example

February: you need to wait until 15/20 march to see all incomes of february

I was also going to make that point. There are a disturbing number of these "phantom" sales or claw-backs. I couldn't say with confidence what my income for IStock was for at least a couple of months after month end. They are the only site like this. No wonder they are going under.

Thanks guys, its just a mess (probably on purpose), which for a top 4 provider, is a surprise.

Weren't they supposed to have already taken out the Feb balance by now?  My total still has Feb and March money.  This got me worried we won't get paid by the 25th.

Detailed in their March 3rd email and also noted here and here at their site:

If your balance is $100 or more on February 28, 2015, you will be eligible to receive a payment. When invoices are generated, typically on or around the 5th of the following month, your payment amount will be moved from your account balance to our financial system.

Please note that for this first payment by Getty Images (US), Inc. we anticipate this process to occur later than the 5th, but be completed by the 15th.

Thank you.  I either missed that or forgot it. 

Same for me !

Which is exactly what it's supposed to do. Now I'm watching my PayPal for the money. 

My Account just got lowered by the balance that was shown as of Feb. 28th.

When will we know for sure if our tax forms were successfully received? I can't find anywhere that confirms I am down for 0% US sales tax.

I've been left with hundreds of dollars and they don't add up clearly to any sum I can make.

But if the cut date is February, 28th and the partner programs have been only reported in March, that means that the PP income from February will only be received in April.

Two months to get money they received in February... Shouldn't we get a 15 to 20% cut of the interests collected in the bank? 

Yup and that's what I pointed out before, but for the sake of accuracy, I dropped the whole thing about taking two months to get out money. Credit sales are only 30 to 55 days delayed. (only?)

You are right. Since PP and Subs and all that other stuff, isn't reported until after the 1st, somewhere like the 10th - 15th on a good month. We don't get our money for two months.

Or in real numbers, a Sub, PP, GI - DL:
Reported Feb. 1st, credited March, paid on April 25th = 84 days
Reported Feb. 28th, credited in March, paid April 25th = 55 days.

Bottom line: we get our sub/pp/GI money between 55 and 84 days after a sale.

On the other hand, like first paychecks when someone starts a job, it's two weeks, then there are checks coming through, for the past. Hopefully the same with IS, as the calculations from March for Feb sales will get paid in April. We'll eventually have a backlog and it will smooth out.

Where's our IStock money? Shouldn't we have gotten it before the 15th?

Correct fotoVoyager. Seems the link and information has gone down the page?

If you have $100 or more, no requests, it's automated now. Under $100 nothing happens.

Step 1 - On the last day of every month, a note is made of your account balance.

Step 2 - On the 5th day of the following month, the amount noted in Step 1 is removed from your balance.

Step 3 - On the 25th day of the month, you will be paid the balance that was removed on the 5th.
(using the payment method that you have selected)

Payout is on the 25th of every month from now on.

Here's where you find your payment method information: http://www.istockphoto.com/payment-information

Also before someone asks... Payments will be processed on the 25th of the following month, providing your balance is $100 or more. If the 25th is a weekend or US holiday, the payment will be made on a prior business day.
