do you request payout when you make it or do you let it build....

I was just curious on this matter... if a site has lets say a $20.00 payout and you reach it just before the end of the month, do you request that payout then...or do you let it build to a certain amount before you request??
I was on another forum and was discussing with a few people that gave me the idea, just because you finally made payout doesnt mean you have to request it right away... but you can let it build up to a certain amount and then request it so that you actually get more on your check/payment.
I have decided to do that this month and see what I can build up a couple of my accounts too since they only pay once a month anyway....so my payouts at the end of this month should be doubled!! at least I am hoping!!
have you tried this before and what amounts do you aim for then?

Hi there,
I usually request payout as soon as I reach it because you just never know where the site will be in days, weeks or months to come regardless of how solid and/or trustworthy they might apppear.

I thought of that too, but I am taking the chance this month to see what I can get my earnings up to... I am hoping to double my earnings and then have a better check when I do cash out this month. I dont think I could go more than 2 months, as the money there is mine and I need it or else I wouldnt be trying to earn it!! LOL
thanks for the response and happy mylotting!!

lets just say the site is trusted and have been running for 2 years or more then I would actually do that but theres this big but what I suggest you should do is ask for payout since you dont know when a site will be down or not.... I have been to many forum site and a lot of it are legit and most trusted who would have ever thought they would turn into non paying site just an advice though .... the only site that I actually accumulate all my earnings would be mylot nothing else...
and besides it would be great to ask payout every time you reach the minimum so that you would be more encourage to do more activities to reach the next month payout...

I didnt request payout last month even though I had made payout at squishy cash last month -- as it is, you can only request at the end of the month and then they send out the checks the end of the next month... well I wanted to see if I could double it to make my check more worth my while... as it is I have got 10.00 more on that check and will be requesting payout at the end of this month since I am dying to get that money!!
I wont do this again since this means I wont be getting any checks this month--that I didnt think about!! so next month at least my checks will be a nicer amount when I receive them!
thanks for the reponse and happy mylotting!! good luck on your sites too!

If you ask me, that's not such a good idea right now...
It might have been a good idea in the past, but these days, when I see so many sites closing or ceasing payment, I think it;s better to get what you've earned when you can, because the site may not make it to the next payout...
Just my opinion...

I know exactly what you mean, and am that way too as soon as I make payout I try to request it, unless I have to wait until the end of the month with some of the sites... I am taking the chance at one of my sites, however I am looking at it as this month I have already made payout because I carried over and I am hoping to double that... at least I can try!! LOL
thanks for the response and happy mylotting.

with some sites I do not trust them so if and when I make payout, I request my money. I just grab it and go!!! I will wait to the end of the month or as close as I can get to it. I like demand because they pay you weekly whether you ask for it or not. there is no minimum. It is really nice to get that email saying they are transferring your earnings to your paypal account. demand is a site where you apply to do writing or copy editing. I do writing. It is pretty easy once you get the hang of it but it can burn you out also. I did it for almost 6 hours on Monday and made $100 but my brain was FRIED!!! I have barely been on myLot, this is my first time in over a week. I don't always feel like chatting long enough to amount to any earnings. My husband just got laid off so I am looking for money NOW!! the sites that are monthly can be a pain to get to payout on. Right now I am focusing more on upfront payments.

I never heard of that site... demand... but if you made $100 congrats to you...I am so happy to hear you are doing well there...and very sorry to hear about your hubby losing his job... and today it is happening so much more often... I really really hope he gets something new very very soon...you are in my prayers!!
I know about not getting on to mylot as much... I try to get here everyday even if it is just for 5 minutes...but I have not been home one day this week all day long...so my money sites are lacking this week...next week I will try to double my efforts to make up for it!!!
thanks for the response and have a good day!!
