How does your publisher payout work?
Contents
As a publisher, you get paid for the backlink orders sold on the marketplace. Everything is tracked from the "My earnings" page of your publisher space, which shows your pending, to-request, in-progress, and paid amounts.
The 4-status journey
Each order goes through four stages after it's published:
- Pending: the order is published, but payment is only unlocked after 30 days of monitored activity on your site — see handling a received order.
- To request: once that period has passed, you can request payment, either alone or by grouping several orders on a single invoice. A compliant invoice is mandatory.
- In progress: your request is validated by the SEO Jungle team and then forwarded to accounting, a process that can take up to 7 days. Payments are made only on the 15th and 30th of each month.
- Paid: requests already validated and paid.
If a request is rejected (a non-compliant invoice, for example), you're given the reason and can resubmit after correcting it. A built-in messaging feature lets you communicate directly with accounting about a request in progress.
The alternative: enhanced cashback credit
Instead of a bank transfer, you can convert the amount of your finalized orders into cashback credit, with a bonus, instantly and with no invoice required. This choice is final: this credit cannot be withdrawn by bank transfer, it can only be used to fund your own backlink purchases on the platform.
Before you can request a payment
Your earnings profile must be complete (company, bank account, supporting documents, legal representative). See the details in requesting payment of your earnings.
