Understanding Withheld Earnings
Learn more about why your earnings could be withheld.
What does "withheld" mean?
If you see "withheld" earnings on your Earnings page, don't worry—this money still belongs to you! It's simply being held temporarily as part of our security process.
Why are earnings withheld?
When fans make purchases on your account, those funds are automatically held for 5 days before becoming available for payout. This brief holding period helps us:
- Protect against fraudulent transactions
- Prevent chargebacks and payment disputes
- Keep the platform secure for all creators
When will I receive my money?
After the 5-day holding period, your earnings will automatically move to your Net Balance and become available for payout. No action is required on your part.
Quick Summary
- Withheld earnings = Your money being held for security
- Holding period = 5 days from purchase date
- After 5 days = Money moves to Net Balance for payout
