Wow. I reached the payout finally. I was wondering if I have to follow any formalities before the payout. I reached the payout last month's last week itself. So they say I have qualified for the payment of November. And are saying we will pay it out on or before 15 of Nov. I was wondering if I have to DO ANY SINGLE THING before they pay out?
Yeah, I checked with my account and it is fine. Does anyone have any idea what to do (if there is anything that is! =P )
Haha. Thanks!

Hi amagnimo! All you need to do is have your PayPal account
all set up and ready to go. I hope you have that by now. If
you don't you had better hurry up and get one. That is how
mylot pays you. They send the money to the PayPal account.
That is all that you need. The money is sent directly to the
PayPal account and then you can do whatever you want with it.
I am on my forth payout. It is really easy. I get my money
from the PayPal account and put it directly into my checking
account so that I can pay some bills. That is what I do with
my money. You can do whatever you like with yours. You can
take out the money or buy something online with it. Or you
can leave it there and let it build up until you are ready
to use it.

Wait, I just noticed. You said YOU GET THE MONEY & then YOU put it in the bank??
I was under the impression that it goes DIRECTLY to the bank after payouts are reached. No? Why did my bank need to open a connection to them, if so?
Gah...if I live to be a THOUSAND I'll NEVER understand money/bank doings!!!* If you can figure out what I mean, & know the answer, please tell me...& please be gentle. It's my First Time dealing with PayPal! ......... {o;
* Oh well, given the coming Depression the financial gurus all promise, I guess that won't be THAT much of a problem! LOL!

Opal--I heard they give you a quick heads-up email to let you know they've deposited it. Is that true? It'd be nice not to have to call the bank & bug THEM.
TIA!

Congratulations for reaching the payout here in my lot. AS long as you have filled in the details correctly, the mylot administration will forward you the money in your paypal account or whatever you have chosen to. Make sure that you have filled in the correct information.

Just make sure your email account to where you will get paid (prob PayPal) is entered correctly in the system and that your minimum payout is set to what you want it to be ($10, $100, whatever...)
They will automatically send the payment around the middle of this month if you really reached your minimum before the end of last month. No need to send any requests or anything.
Congrats on your first payout! :)

Hi there. How do they schedule their payments here? If you reach payout at the end of the previous month, you get paid at the 15th of the next month? If you reach payout anywhere within November 1-15, when do you receive your earnings? The 30th of this month?

yeah. Finally I am not waiting to make up the payment here and I am waiting for email stating the money got transferred! hehe.
Everythings' set. yeah.
@last comment to this response:
They payout all the money on or 15th of everymonth.
Whatever is you build up in this month and before, if it qualifies for your min payout, you get it on or before the next months 15th day.

That's the same thing _I_ want to know! I'm due a payout (well, actually, overdue, but for once, it wasn't MyLot which messed up..'twas I....) on the 15th.
I can't see how others have responded 'til I post this (& that IS one of MyLot's screwy methods...grrr), but I look forward to finding out myself! Thanks for asking!

When you get a post saying such-&-such friend has posted a new discussion, & it gives you a LINK, it leads DIRECTLY TO the response page, without letting you SEE what others have responded like alr3eady! As to WHY MyLot does this? It's just one of their weird ways of doing things. Sometimes I can figure out how I want to answer from the post included, but not always.
Oh, & as for the payout? Hang on to your congrats; THAT has something weird going on with it, TOO. NOW I'm being told I've given MyLot the wrong password--but that's impossible; I COPIED & PASTED the very password Pay Pal GAVE ME--twice!
I don't think they're EVER going to cough up my money, frankly. They've been stalling since I saw I'd gone over $10!

That's tough! Congratulations! I'm so amazed that you were able to reach the payout even if you only have 358 responses in discussion. You really work hard! I envy you....
Just make sure that you have your paypal account verified so you can receive your first payment.

Well thank you. I do write too much in these. Sometimes I wonder it to be good that I don't write much. But then, now I know how does it payout. The replies I have made are long ones atleast longer than average. So if it pays out this way, as I make out from your response, I am happy I wrote long ones! =)
Good luck to you! And yeah, I do have the paypal account verified XD Just waiting for the payment!

If these statement is what is written in your account balance: "Congratulations, you have earned enough in October to qualify for November's payment! We will process payouts on or before November 15." then there's no problem at all and I believe that is what you want to imply also. You just have to wait when paypal send you a notification that you have payment from myLot. And you have already checked your payment information then all you have to do is set back and relax and wait for your money. There's nothing else you need to now for now except to post more for next month.

Thanks for posting this. I was curious about this as well. Also, thanks to everyone for their answers they were very helpful.
I am wondering though, do they pay you for how much you have at the end of the month over $10 or just the even $10?
Example, say you have $12.41 in your account November 30th. Do they pay you $12.41 Decenber 15th or $10 and the $2.41 is your new balance?
Thanks

Well of course. Welcome to mylot and thanks for your congrats. Wishing you the earliest payout! =)
I do write a lot on average. Most of the times (no actually, always) I write full english and no try to avoid typos. I try to avoid abbreviations and I don't use Netspeak. In that case, I am lenghtening my post and trying to make it more qualitative. I am glad I have reached my payout for now. When I write I usually don't think about getting a nice pay, but I rather think of getting a nice award that is Best response for my comment. That calls my best writing to come on and get me the best response on my own efforts.
Well good luck to you! =)
