Hey Israel,

This being a legal question, and as members here, we have been asked to NOT respond to legal questions due to our NOT being a lawyer.

I'm sure you could find a local law firm that would be able to advise you on this issue.

Much grateful, my friend! I reached out to the Support here at WA moments ago, and they gave me the right advice. Thanks, I'm deeply grateful!

Israel Olatunji

What was the advice?

I have searched high and low for an answer to your question. I do not know but I bet this person will know if you contact him. Sotiris1

It's worth a try.

Laura

Thanks, Laura! Much appreciated! I'll contact him.

WA Affiliate Program

If I'm unable to access PayPal, is it possible for me to receive affiliate commissions from WA via check or bank transfer?

See Marion’s comment
TIM

Exactly, I did, Tim! Thanks for helping out with my question! Thanks to everyone! What a lovely community!

Israel Olatunji

Each affiliate program has its own method of payment, some use PayPal, some do direct deposit, and some pay by check. Some programs may be flexible but most are rigid with their payout method. Always check how you're going to get paid before promoting any product if you can't accept all possible payment methods.

Send a private message to Kyle and ask if WA can make an exception for you.

Oh, thanks for your response, Marion! Much appreciated! All the best in 2020, my friend!

Israel Olatunji

hey hi Israel -- good question!

just from recall only, yes, you'll need to obtain an understanding with Kyle on this and there's a minimum threshold as well ... Diane's got it for you! ...

hope it all works out for you, all the best for a brilliant 2020!

Wow, thanks a bunch, my friend, Keishalina! I can't thank you enough for your answer! Thanks!

Israel Olatunji

Hi - I believe you can be paid by bank transfer after agreement with Kyle, but I have in mind that the minimum payout is $100.

I would love to get paid by bank transfer, Daine! PayPal has always been a sort of challenge and frustration for me. I've got hundreds of dollars frozen with PayPal and don't want to continue with PayPal anymore. Thanks for your words of encouragement, my friend!

Israel Olatunji

Hi, Israel,
We normally use PayPal. However, I would certainly ask Kyle if he can pay you out in another way.
Worth a PM to Kyle for sure. It won't harm to ask.. :)
Debs :)

Wow, Debs! Thanks for this great answer! I'm extremely grateful, my good friend! Good to hear from you within the community! Happy preparations for the next super affiliate conference, Debs!

Israel Olatunji

Lovely to catch up with you too.
Same to you too also Israel. .😊

Hey Israel,

Your question did not go to Kyle in a private message. Instead, you selected an option that published this in a classroom where all members can come in and answer the questions that we know how to help with.

Thought you would want to know rather than simply ignore you.

If you want to contact Kyle in a private message, be sure to select an option that provides you with a blank textbox that will be clearly labeled with "Contact Kyle or Carson". In this way, your messages will be delivered to Kyle in his inbox.

Hope you find this helpful.

Thanks Triblu! I sent Kyle a PM shortly after I realized that my question dropped in a classroom. I am grateful. I also modified the question.

Recently, I started receiving PMs from some friends that each time they attempted paying their monthly subscription, they would keep seeing the error message "Sorry, we can't p

In the past, WA would make 3 attempts to process payment before closing the account, giving members ample time to update their payment info or contact Kyle with any problems.

When sending Kyle a PM naturally, the billing issue would be selected as the subject.

Also, it is a good idea to make sure you can log into your site through "wp-admin" so you would still have access to your website should you get locked out of WA.

You would then be able to access your site for 30 days to either work on it or move it to new hosting but you would not have access to the site manager.

For those who don't know, the URL would be

http://yoursite.com/wp-admin

If you should get locked out of your account, the 2 options to contact Kyle would either be through email or

Hope this helps

That has got to be extremely frustrating!

Maybe contact support and let them know this is happening on a regular basis: they may not be aware that there is a problem.

hey hi Israel!

.... all good questions ... apparently, there's roll-outs happening and that may be affecting some processing here ... patience is key ... suggest, re-boot, re-try a wee bit later ...

I checked my affiliate stats just now and found that I wasn't paid on the first day of the month for the first time in the last 13 months. Till this present moment, my affiliat

I was not paid either.

I'm sure they will get it straightened out, I have never had any issues with getting paid in 5 years here.

Yes, you are right, Jason. Thanks for being so caring! Carson actually got back to me some moments ago and asked me to confirm my PayPal email before sending the payment which is awesome about them. I've been here for the past 13 months and have always found the platform so awesome. Thanks a lot! Good to know that someone cares!

Just letting you know I got paid, so hopefully, as others have said here, that it's just a glitch and it will be sorted soon.

Much grateful, Give It A Go! Thanks for being so caring! Much excited! Carson got back to and assured me that the payment will be sent to me today. Kudos to you! Glad to meet you! Thanks!

I have no idea how automated the process is at the WA end when it hopes to payment. Do they approve them one by one, or is the approval process for all in one click.

I would have assumed that they are heading back to Canada after the WA Conference in Las Vegas. The weather in Canada and in the top of the USA is very cold and very snowy at the moment. So they might be having fun connecting to the internet.

A PM to Carson might be the best thing remembering that he may already have a backlog. I assume that this would get sorted every quickly (weather permitting and backlog permitting and travel permitting). @Boomergp08 mentions that Carson handles WA payments.

I am sure that this will be resolved.

Thanks a lot, DynamicDavid! Carson got back to me some moments ago and assured me of getting paid today which is awesome about them. Thanks! Much grateful!

I believe this might be a glitch with some members because I have seen other members complain that they did not get paid either.

I personally received my payment yesterday on the first of the month, just like it has been for years. So this is not a widespread problem.

I would suggest you send Carson, not Kyle, a Private Message. Carson handles all issues with WA commission payments.

Thanks a lot, Boomergp! Much grateful! I have asked a lot of people and no one ever told me they didn't get paid yesterday which made me feel so frustrated even in my 13th month of being an active premium member. Thanks for your care!

You are probably the third or fourth members that I have seen within the past 24 hours asking about not getting paid. Like I said, it sounds like a glitch.

Thanks, my friend! I can see it's not only me. Thanks for being caring!

Hi, it's just to let you know that I've been assured of getting paid in earnest. Carson actually contacted me some moments ago and told me to confirm my PayPal ID in order to get me paid. Thanks for being so caring! I haven't got that experience before in the last 13 months of being a premium member. Thanks a lot!

I experienced the opposite, I was paid

Thanks for your message, Mark! Almost everyone I have spoken to got paid yesterday except me in my 13th month of being a premium member of the community. So, I couldn't work at all except asking people all around the community because I didn't know why this failure happened to only me. Thanks for your care! Hope to have the payment made to me today!

Be calm, they'll pay you. Perhaps the reason is in the ordinal number of the month 13 LOL.

Kudos, Mark! Thanks for being there! Carson has got back to me and assured me of getting paid in earnest. Good to meet people like you. Awesome to know that someone cares in situations like this!

Israel Olatunji

It might have something to do with the gathering in Vegas

Thanks for your lovely response, Joe! Much appreciated! But Vegas shouldn't have been responsible for this anyway since it's automated. I felt so frustrated to have kept waiting throughout yesterday without getting any notification why the payment wasn't made to me on the first day of the month. Thanks for your care! Good to know that someone cares in situations like this!

Israel Olatunji

I thought as much, friend. Thanks for being so caring! Carson got back to me some moments ago and assured me of receiving payments in earnest. He only required me to update my payment settings to receive payments in earnest. Glad to meet you! Good to know that someone cares!

Israel Olatunji

You are welcome. I could tell that you were concerned, but for the time I have been here, I didn't think the issue was intentional, and that someone in WA would reach out to you and solve your problem...glad it is resolved.

Best wishes,

Joe

Hi Israel,

So sorry to hear about your not being paid.

This has to be an oversight?

Hope things work out for you.

Maxine

Thanks for your response! It's been so frustrating for me because I counted so much on this payment to settle out some basic needs, whereas, this hasn't happened to me in the last 13 months of being a premium member. Thanks!

Good afternoon Israel,

This situation will be quickly resolved as soon as it reaches Carson's attention.

Hold on help is on the way.

Blessings
Maxine

It happened as you said, MAXINEG. You really understand this community well. Carson actually got back to me and required that I should confirm my PayPal ID in order to receive payment in earnest. Thanks for being there! Good to know that someone cares in situations like this. Thanks!

Continue to be strong.

Here's to amazing success for 2019.

Perhaps just a glitch with the system? Let us know how it turns out.

Alright, thanks! I've tried to ask on Site Support and everywhere else in this community but all to no avail. In fact, I've never experienced this for the past 13 months of being a premium member. I don't even know how to explain this to my premium referrals who were asking me whether I got paid or not. Thanks!

Probably, it could be a glitch as you said but Carson has got back to me assuring me that they will get me paid in earnest which is awesome about them. Thanks a lot! Much grateful!
