Payments will be issued via PayPal once a month on the last business day of the month. Your monthly payment will include orders that have been placed for at least 15 days. This is to make sure that the customer doesn't return the product during our money-back period. Please be sure to enter your PayPal email when signing up. If you do not have a PayPal account, you are responsible for setting it up. If you enter an incorrect email or don’t have a PayPal account setup, this could potentially delay your payment.
