I recall that the minimum for payout on P5 is $25 (if I recall correctly.) My latest sale yesterday put me well above $25. I also recall that payment is automatically released when the minimum amount is obtained. That's the way it worked in the past for me. Ive never had to put in a manual request for payment.
There has been no e-mail regarding the payment release from PayPal. I also signed into my PayPal account and no money has come in. Don't think I have had a delay like this before.
