How do I get paid as a Publer ambassador?

Ambassador Payouts



As a Publer Ambassador, you will receive monthly payouts directly to your PayPal or Stripe account.

Each earned commission is manually verified for its legitimacy. There's a 15 days approval wait time for commissions earned on free users and a 30 days approval wait time for commissions earned on paying customers, in case they ask for a refund.

Approved commissions are paid out via PayPal/Stripe on the 1st of every month, as long as the total unpaid commissions are at least $20 and the PayPal email address or Stripe account you have provided is valid.

However, by actively sharing Publer with your network, you will have the following benefits:

Biweekly payments on the 1st and on the 15th of each month

Early access to upcoming features, thus directly contributing to shaping their development

Increase the chances of earning higher commission rates .

Delay in Payouts



PayPal Payouts



A slight delay in receiving payouts is normal due to factors like banking holidays, processing times, and the chosen payout method.

First Payout: Your first payout takes the longest (typically 7 days) due to verification and compliance checks. You can read more here.

Subsequent Payouts: Usually processed instantly after reaching your PayPal account, though weekends and bank holidays may cause delays.

Stripe Payouts



First Payout: Your first payout takes the longest (typically 7–14 days) due to verification and compliance checks. Processing time may vary depending on your location and bank. You can read more here.

Subsequent Payouts: The payout has been sent to Stripe and will be transferred to your bank account within 1–2 business days. Banks may take an additional 3–5 business days to reflect the funds.

If your funds haven't arrived within the expected timeframe, check your Stripe dashboard for updates. If the payment is in progress, your payout request has been received and is being processed, usually within a few business days. If the issue persists, contact your bank to ensure there are no processing delays.

Credit Notes and Statements



We are not able to provide affiliate commission credit notes or statements. The commissions are paid by our US entity, which means that we always report to the US authorities. Moreover, all the Publer ambassadors are paid via PayPal, which means that we are not required to report anything to the IRS.

For more context, anytime a payment to a contractor/ambassador is made by credit/debit card, or a third party payment processing company (such as Stripe, PayPal, Venmo, etc.), it is the payment processing company's responsibility to prepare a 1099-K or any necessary tax forms.

In this case, PayPal receipts should be enough for any tax related concerns, however, please feel free to contact us at the live chat on our website or at [email protected] for further assistance.
