You'll be paid via PayPal every time you have earned a minimum of $50 in commissions. Provided you earn that minimum every month, you will be paid every month. If your earnings don't exceed $50 we will carry your amount due to the next month, and so on, until your commissions due add up to at least $50. If you earn below $50 in commissions per year, you will be paid annually.

When a payment is due, payments are made 15-20 days after the end of the previous month (e.g. January payments are made between 15-20 February).
