We're excited to announce that with the expansion of the Author Rewards Program, two new PayPal options are available on a trial basis in the CurseForge and WoWAce stores! Authors are now able to cash out at $100 and $150, respectively.
A lower cash incentive has been a long-requested feature, and over the next two months, we'll be testing these two payment amounts as a long-term option. Please feel free to give us feedback regarding these options, as we are always looking to better serve our authors!
It would be cool if there was some sort of incentive for translators as well ^_^
This is brilliant, will take me a while to reach it, but I'm earning about 1 Point/day :P And my mods are only small at the moment, so I'd say that's fair :)
Dang now I wanna make an addon that will be mega popular and get thousands of downloads per month and see if I can live off of the paypal payouts, lmao.
@Jaliborc
From my experience, payouts take place consistently on the 5th of every month (or the following weekday if the 5th falls on the weekend).
@prencher
Hey, don't want to be grumpy, but could you please give an estimative of when the next payout is going to be? I mean, for the month of April requests.
Thank you in advance.
@chaoslux
We do payouts once a month. That's just the way it is.
I placed my order on Feb. 26, and the order get fulfilled on Mar. 05. Considering it's a reward, I am satisfied with current situation.
(comparing to I "got" a reward from my job on last Dec., and I have not yet received that reward now....)
@arith
I contacted Curse on that subject and they answer me that they proceed them once a month, during the first week of the month. I placed an order on February 9th and I have yet to see that money.
While I love this announcement all around, they really need to do something about that. Once Per Month is a pretty extreme wait time if you (unknowingly) redeemed it the day after.
So usually how long this award (money) will get transferred to specified PayPal account once the order has been placed?
Real money - Real deal =) Thank You CF.
I just registered myself. And I must say, I really aim to be a good user. :) And by the way, really nice addition.
I was very suprised as i was working out a deal to get a friend to mail something to him so he can mail it to me, deal with customs and everything to use a $100 gift card to just see a paypal option in there! This is a godsend.
Good news, thanks for working on this =)
