I made sales today subtotal ( Z charged customers ) $311.70 - a fair enough day only making 10% but wait a minute my total royalty comes to $18.25 . In what world does that come to 10% I still am not getting referrals and I have thousands of links out in numerous sites and networking plus paying advertising. I am still waiting for this big fix that will finally be getting my links right. But that is one problem. This post is asking where is the 10% ???
I hear your pain. Was it a third party sale?
Yes it was. I thought the least we were to make was 10% - I give, UNCLE
Our Earnings page says, “Improvements coming soon! We’re enhancing your Earnings reports following our updated Terms of Use,” but that hasn’t happened, and it’s been three months since the Ambassador program went into effect. We also need answers to your questions and transparency about the amount of money Zazzle and third parties are taking out of our earnings. And why are nearly all of our sales attributed to third parties?
Why allow designers to set their royalty rates if we never get the amount we ask for?
Congrats on the large sale, Maybe your post should read “I give to UNCLE ZAZZLE?” This royalty issue is not funny at all, just trying to get you to laugh a little, stress kills.
I definitely feel your pain.
It seems that until and unless Z, if ever,steps up and makes adjustments to royalty schema more equatable, we vent here to each other in the forum, which Z either skims or reads posts selectively.
I got over the fact that 3rd party has gotten almost all my sales over the year. Even though I never stopped trying to promote. I remember when first starting and they made a big thing about adding your referral code to emails. I thought that maybe they fixed the oops they made with our referrals but now I am sure it is still messed up. Are we supposed to put out referral code on links anymore or should we just share them as is? I don’t know if I believe that little statement that says your code is figured in. My code is in the twilight zone. I advertised $30 on meta over the last few days and got nothing … not one sale. Over the last two months over $78 and not a one sale. Where are these things going. Is every person on line already a member or what? I was finally accepting everything being 3rd party now this. It is like the US government paying the richest … sorry but I am mad and broke.
