# 34 I’ve been watching my bank since I logged in today. It’s so close I could feel it rolling over the $5 threshold at any second… And sure enough, there it is with the latest update! So today, I’m officially eligible for August 2016 payment – I have reached the minimum amount of $5... The amount of payment I will receive is whatever my balance will be by midnight CST on August 31st 2016 – that is myLot time and that will already be well into September 1st on my end... I will receive my August 2016 payment on or before September 15th 2016. Between midnight CST on August 31st and whatever the payday will be, my bank will show August 2016 payout amount plus whatever I earn in September thus far. I’ve read comments around some confusion that myLot is not paying the whole amount earned. No, it’s not like that at all. MyLot always pays what we earn in full. If we don’t reach the $5 minimum by midnight CST on end of month, don’t despair, the balance will be carried over to the next month and not a single penny will be missing. And whatever the balance is in the current month, will be paid on or before the 15th of the next month. If you’d like to, you can always check the breakdown of your earnings vs payments on your Earnings Summary pages – I cannot expect any more transparent report than what is shown there...

Well done on reaching the minimum so soon. That is great. With luck you'll get a lot more yet.

Hmm... I'm afraid it's not as 'soon' as it seems... I had half of that carried over from July...

@sishy7 Oh, I didn't realise. At first I thought maybe you thought the pay period was to the middle of the month.

@sishy7 Oh no . That's because i come here intermittently whenever i am at the office and have no more works and is still waiting for some . But maybe if i am here for more than 5 hours i am sure i can reach $20 or more in a month's time .

We have about 2 weeks before end of month, so it's possible that you will reach minimum payout amount or at least will be very close to it...

I'm with you and understand- but they will not pay more than $5.00 per month, will they? if you go over that amount- it will just go to the next month?

They will pay whatever the balance in our bank is by midnight CST on the last day of the month as long as it is at least $5. If it is less than $5, then the balance will be carried over to the next month. If it is more than $5, then they will pay the whole amount earned up to the midnight CST/end of month deadline.

Cashing out on here is automatic. As long as you put your paypal email on your account settings, you will be paid when your balance reaches the minimum payout amount of $5. Now, I have never done it myself, but I heard how other members purposely leave the paypal email field blank so they can accumulate the balance to be over $5 before they get paid.

I have not seen MysD either here, but that's because I am inactive. Is she too!? Yes, I have this head because I like her yellow head here. I wonder if it is connected other way too.

Good to see you! I notice you haven't been too active, but you're always around when mysD shows up... Must be the yellow head avatars that you both have - they connect to each other or something... Oh, I usually need at least a couple of months to reach the new minimum payout amount of $5... But it's probably my own fault for reading too much on here instead of posting my own discussions... I know many myLotters have no problem making payout every month since it's only $5. Glad you still remember what a fun place this is...
