Hi everyone, my shutterstock didnt pay me since Jan and Feb..My last paypal payment from them was December...Anyone facing the same problem?

I don't think anyone got paid for Ferbraury yet. I only got the mail that my payment was calculated this morning.

About January's payment: There seems to have been a problem with a lot of contributor's payment in January. There are many threads about it in the support forum. One person even managed to get hold of a real person when contacting support and was told that there has been a technical error with payments, so that many people were not getting their January payments and that they would get it along with their February payments.

Why Shutterstock thought it was acceptable to just stay silent instead of notifying these people about their missing payment, or to just postpone the payments to the next month (some people acually rely on their Microsock income for living!) instead of paying the earnings as soon as the error was noticed, it a mistery to me, but so is a lot of the stuff SS does these days.

Eiher way, if everything goes according to plan, you should get your January earnings along with your February earnings within the next few days.

Check you updated your tax forms.

Other than that as Firn says there was a glitch in the payments system for January.

February earnings should start arriving around March 7th.

Other than that make sure your payment details are still yours and that your account hasn't been hacked and altered.

They paid me today, for February. Pretty quick. You didn't criticize them in public, right?

If you ask me, I did not, I just post on their forum to ask if someone had the same problem of missing payment..but if someone criticize them I do not think that they would not send payment because of that, it was obvious some glitch in the system, sorry for my english

I had a notification Tuesday saying my payment had been calculated then another yesterday saying the payment had been sent to my paypal account which I have checked and confirmed.

Following the payout I have deleted my account and am now waiting for then to remove my small portfolio from the website.

I don't think the payment has ever come this early in the month for me before. SS must have decided to do something to get a positive reaction, for a change

They nearly doubled their cashflow in the midst of pandemic. I wonder how they did it. Maybe that's why they pay us quick now.
