    What would happen if I were to delay on making the profile.. In cases like unable to do it before unity upgrades.. Will i still be able to do manual or unity just doesnt pay out

    Would it be possible for Unity to start using TransferWise instead of WorldPay or Paypal? The rates are much better for us freelancers, and I guess it makes no difference for Unity. Thanks!

    For the second time fill the same tax document... this is just stupid. So what happened to one we already sent few months ago? Waste of time.

    I've been a seller here since October 2014 yet it seems that my payment may be held hostage unless I read about how to get started selling content. I saw this above my sales:

    "ACTION REQUIRED: To receive a payment in mid-March (if you’re eligible for one), please do the following Getting Started Guide before February 28. For more information, see our FAQ. More details here"

    Or why doesn't Unity have code to say "this seller has been around for over 4 years and has probably done all the steps in setting up their account"?

    Hi there,

    Thank you for your comments.

    I would urge anyone that has any issues to contact us at the support address linked in the article so we can discuss this with you - we tend to avoid providing support relating to Users/Publishers' financial situations in open areas such as Knowledge Base comments.

    How much time do I have to wait before the automated payout happens? Can I still do manual payouts with PayPal?

    Hey Yanis!

    Thanks for your comment.

    The payout timeframe will depend on the payout method you have opted for. For example, payments via Bank/Wire transfer, will be paid to you each quarter, in January, April, July and October.

    However, if you chose PayPal as your payout method, you would receive the payout on a monthly basis.

    Both payouts are paid on or around the 15th of each month respectively, based on the above.

    I hope this has been helpful!

    Hi Jarvis,

    First of all, I don't know how to reply.

    Secondly, if a purchase has been made the 7th of July. Should I have received the payout on the 15th, or am I not understanding how this works?

     

    Edit: My payout method is PayPal and the min. payout is 1.00 USD

     

    Edit 2: Why is the montly revenue tab blank? And what are the "Verify Invoice" and "Users" tab?  I'm confused...

    Hey Yanis,

    No need to worry, you have replied in the right way and I can help you out here.

    Each month there is an early cut-off point for payments to be processed for Publishers to receive the payout. For example, any revenue you earn from Asset sales in June, will be paid to you in July's payout, if you opted for PayPal.

    All sales made up to the end of July will be paid out on or around the 15th August.

    I would recommend having a read over this article to help you get to grips with the payout cycles: When and how will I receive my Asset Store payout?

    The 'Verify Invoice' tab is used when processing Asset refund requests and the 'Users' tab is for when you need to manage your team of Publisher Users. This is to allow your users to do some admin within the portal itself.

    You can read a full, detailed guide on this by visiting our manual, found here: Unity Manual: Asset Store Publishing

    I hope this has been helpful and cleared up any confusion. If you have any other questions, please reach out to us at support@unity3d.com and we can help you again!

    Hello Chelo, thank you for your comment.

    Unfortunately, it seems that you are talking about payment or prizes earned from a game made using Unity, our game engine. Just to let you know, Unity does not create, develop or release games or applications ourselves.

    I believe what has happened here is you have been playing a game or application that features the 'Made with Unity' logo, which is shown by default for all games or applications that are developed using the free version of our software.

    To clarify, Unity is a games engine that other individuals and companies can use to create their own games and applications in. Unity is not affiliated with any developers and is not involved in any games or applications directly, it is simply our software that was used to make them.

    What you would need to do here is contact the developers of this game, so they can help you with your issue. You can usually find their contact information on the app store that you downloaded it from.

    I hope this has helped to explain things for you. 

    If there is anything else you need in the meantime, please feel free to email us at support@unity3d.com or alternatively, you can submit a ticket via this web form.

    I have a Bank transfer method set up. And my Payout Profile is set to private individual and has my personal details. My Payout Method is Bank Transfer and it has my girlfriend's bank account added to it. (with her name and the city she lives in, same country) Will this be an issue when I get the payment? and is it okay to have a different person's bank account?

    Hello Malith. 

    Derek from Unity Customer Experience here. Thanks for reaching out to us. 

    in regards to your inquiry. There will be no issue if you decide to have someone else's payout details attached to your payout. 

    We do however, recommend you checking and complying with the income/tax laws where you reside.

    If you have any follow up questions, please contact us on support@unity3d.com

    All the best.
