Accounting Policy

Pay Periods
Pay periods end at 12:00:01am on the 1st of each month. For security reasons payment is by check only. Checks are mailed within 15 days after the end of the period. Checks over $5000 are sent by Priority Mail (for US clients) or Global Priority Mail (for non-US clients) at our expense.

Payment Minimums
We hold your check until your payable balance reaches $250. Accounts that generate a high volume of sales can request bi-monthly payments (1st and 15th).

Reserved Funds
We withhold 10% from all checks. A reserve is required by our merchant banks as a deposit against future reversed sales on your account. Each amount withheld is credited back to your account after 90 days.

Account Closure
You may close your account at any time. Any closing balance under $250 will be forfeited.

Postal Delays
No postal service is 100% reliable. If your check is significantly delayed you may request that we send you a new check. Please keep in mind that to issue a new check we have to pay a service fee to the bank network to recall (void) the first check. A $50 cancellation fee applies. New checks can only be issued on days when regular checks are cut (monthly).

Legal limitations
This document is not a warranty. For more detail please consult the Client Contract.

 

Payment for Sales

Compensation
You are paid 25% of each sale you make. Our most popular script, csNews Professional, costs $99. For each sale of csNewsPro, you will make about $25! Our suite of scripts costs $299. For each suite sale, you will make about $75.

Reversals
If a customer dispute cannot be resolved we may be forced to reverse the sale. When a sale is reversed, your profit from the sale is debited back out of your account. Proof of reversal can be mailed to for a fee of $10.00. Reversals are running at a rate less that 1.25% of all sales. This is a non-issue, for the most part.

Bank network fees
Disputed credit card sales can generate bank network penalty fees, which are passed through to your account. The current bank network fees are $5 (draft retrievals) or $15 (charge-backs).
