Royalties

[Serenity]

Hi Guys This is FAQ really But do I have to accrue £10 of royalties before I get paid or does lulu pay you after x amount if days? I read the in the US it's 5 dollars what is it in British pounds? I'm asking because I normally buy copies and sell them to friends physically however things are now growing with sales and people are now buying online I have my bank details keyed in already Thanks for your help

Lulu pay on about the 16th day of the month following that in which sales have been recorded.

The best way to receive payment is by the use of a Paypal account.

What if you don't have a paypal account? Can you still recieve your revenue?

I have revenue Pending in my dashboard since January 2011, how come this would not have been paid yet. Is there anything I can do to get the money?

I was wondering the same thing. I haven't received a thing and I have no Paypal account.

Look at your account details.

You need to tell Lulu there how and where you want payments made.

Lulu will make monthly payments to Paypal accounts if your balance exceeds $5 (=£3). Paypal payments can be in USD, GBP or EUR

If you don't want a Paypal transfer then they will pay by 'check' quarterly when your balance exceeds $20 but in US dollars only. A US dollar cheque for $20 is effectively worthless for a UK author. $20 is about £12. My bank charges £10 to bank a US cheque, and the remainng £2 could be eaten up in conversion rates....

If you have a paypal account you only have to wait the 16 days to get the payment made for your material.  If you are sent a check in the mail then you have to wait until you accrue $25.00 in royalties before a check will be sent to you.  Unfortunately I do not know the answer to what $5.00 is in British pounds.  You may want to check with one of your banks to find out that information.
