Title: Payments at StockXpert
Post by: epixx on March 01, 2007, 18:52
Does anyone know how long time it takes to get paid at StockXpert? I requested payment to my Moneybookers account early Monday morning this week (26th), and got a message on my monitor that it would take 3 days, but so far no money   :-\

That's really bad, particularly considering that other agencies mostly do it overnight or within a couple of days. If it's that late, it must be a part of their policy, a policy that shows very little respect towards their only source of income: the photographers.

I think they do the payments in batches.  My last payment was in less than 24 hours but some have taken a few days.

Mine is still pending after a week. Unless there's something seriously wrong with my algebra, it's way past the promised three days now.

Although it's not a major amount, I had a purpose for requesting payment, combining it with other payouts, but now I have no idea when the money will arrive. It just says "You have a pending payment request for $86.50 sent on February 26, 2007.".

I requested a check and my account says it was sent on Feb 12 and haven't received it yet.

As per today, 8 days after I requested payment from StockXpert, there's a new message on my account page, saying "Next Moneybookers payment: March 8". That means at least 10 days to get paid from StockXpert.

On their FAQ page, it says: "We try to do our best to process payment requests within 3 workdays, but sometimes when there's a surge of requests this may take longer. Payments via Paypal, Moneybookers and such should arrive instantly."

While they take only a couple of hours to approve or reject photos, paying photographers is apparently not nearly as much fun. This sucks big time if you ask me  >:(
