Among the most common questions we receive, along with how will I get paid and when am I getting paid, is why we pay publishers on a NET 65 basis.
Waiting 65 days from the end of each month (e.g. January revenue will be paid April 5) is essential to our business and for your protection.
Journey works with many many ad partners and exchanges that spend on your site. These partners pay Journey ads by Mediavine on varying timetables; some pay on Net 60 terms while others are Net 90 and others are Net 180.
After over a decade in web publishing, we’ve received many late payments, and have worked with more than a few companies whose financial problems left us on the hook for considerable sums. Having experienced it first hand, this is not a risk we are comfortable passing on to publishers, as many businesses do.
NET 65 allows us to retain adequate reserves in the event of an unforeseen issue with one or more partners, ensuring short- and long-term solvency and guaranteeing that you will never miss a payment from Journey by Mediavine.
