Sudden Drop in Royalty Earnings with 3rd Party Referrals Since April 1st

Discussion Forums Ask a Question

Hi everyone,

 I’ve noticed something strange since April 1st. For sales that come through 3rd party referrals, where I’ve set the royalty fee to 10%, the final royalty payment has been reduced to 5%.

Does anyone know why this is happening?

Is it a new policy or just a glitch?

Has anyone else experienced a similar drop in earnings?

Thanks in advance for any insights!

They take out the marketing fee which is i.e. for wedding items or stationery 50% from your royalty.

Interestingly enough, all my recent sales are 3rd party;) Before I had quite a lot of NONE referred ones…

I have noticed an uptick of 3rd party now too. Seems over 90% are 3rd party now. Hopefully it all levels out.
