Net terms (Net 30, Net 15)

Net terms say when an affiliate is paid. Net 30 means the earnings of a period are paid 30 days after it ends: conversions from October are paid around the end of November.

Why networks wait

The network is usually paid by the advertiser after the month closes, once both sides have checked the conversions. Waiting leaves time to remove fraud and chargebacks before the money leaves the network. Paying affiliates before the advertiser pays is a cash-flow risk.

Common terms

Term	When the affiliate is paid
Net 30	30 days after the period ends
Net 15	15 days after the period ends
Net 7 / weekly	every week, usually for trusted affiliates
On request	when the affiliate asks, above a minimum balance

Faster terms are often a reward for affiliates with good traffic and a long history.

Minimum payout

Most networks only pay above a minimum balance (for example 50 €), so small amounts roll over to the next period.

Affiliates see their balance in real time and request payouts; the team approves them and pays several at once with a SEPA batch. See affiliate payouts.
