Minimum and invoicing rules  

The minimum settlement threshold is €50 or its equivalent in another currency (250 BLR, 60 USD, 43 GBP, ...). If you have not reached the minimum per currency, your earnings will remain pending until the next payment request.

Kwanko does not cumulate the earnings of different currencies to reach the 50€ or equivalent: each currency is subject to a specific payment request.


Date of payment of invoices received

Kwanko generates invoice requests for publishers on receipt of advertiser funds at the end of each month (between 30th/31st and 1st). 

After validation of the payment requests, the payment dates are as follows:

  • Invoice validated between the 1st and the 15th of the month (included), effective payment between the 1st and the 5th of the following month.

  • Invoice validated between the 16th and the end of the month, effective payment between the 15th and the 20th of the following month.

Earnings page

This page allows you to view the earnings on campaigns and check the validation and payment status of advertisers. 

La partie statistiques dans le tableau représente la totalité des actions réalisées sur les campagnes en spécifiant :

The statistics part of the table represents the totality of the actions carried out on the campaigns by specifying :

  • total earnings: pending approval + approved

  • events pending approval

  • events approved

The “payment” part of the table refers to the earnings already approved :

  • either waiting for payment

  • or events for which the payment has already been done.

To facilitate the search, you can filter the data by currency, by websites, by campaign and by period. 

You can also change the order of these filters to find information according to the website, the campaign or the period, by clicking and dragging the field with the 3 small dots positioned on the left side:

As payment requests are based on earnings validated and paid by the client, they may differ from the earnings realised on the campaign: only approved earnings will be paid.
