First Batch of Payments (November 2009)

Earlier today we processed about half of the checks scheduled for release from our recent round of payments. The checks were deposited to the bank accounts of their respective users. If you’re wondering why there’s a mention of “bank accounts,” we’ve actually used it as a payment option for our previous batches when possible; bank deposits are definitely much safer and faster than sending the check through regular mail or an express courier anyway.

Since a good number of those scheduled to receive a check are first timers, many of you still had incomplete details. Instead of waiting for everyone, we decided to deposit the ones that were ready and will just be sending the rest in another batch of deposits.

If you have a check due, please sign in to your account and fill out the details. And to make things just a bit easier for us, send an email to team(at)blogbank.com.ph with the following details: your username, the email address you used for your BlogBank account, your complete name, and your bank details. For your bank details, be sure to include the account name if it’s not the same as your full name, along with the account number and type (savings or current/checking). And if your bank’s quite picky with the details like your account’s branch, include them too so we can make sure we get you your payment as soon as possible.

If you’ve already received the deposit and noticed that the amount is not exactly the same as that listed in the publisher app, note that there is a tax deduction as mandated by law. The deduction will likely be smaller than we’ve all expected and we will give you more details on this soon.


A BlogBank Christmas

Hey guys! I know I promised you last week an update regarding payments for unpaid campaigns this year, so here it is!

Topping our previous record of roughly 420,000 pesos, this batch of payments grows 25% and comes out to around 540,000 pesos. This time 9 campaigns pushed 53 bloggers to breach the 2,000–peso minimum for having a check issued.

Since I just finished updating the system with all the data and calculations, we can only start next week for all the verification and other required documentation to produce your checks. The team will be working hard to have them released at the soonest time possible, so we all have a bit more for our holiday shopping. We should have an update on your checks in the coming days.

Do sign in to your account to see if you should be expecting a check soon, and while you’re at it, be sure to complete the requirements we’ve mentioned before so your payment is released with no trouble.


Update on Payments

Hi Guys! It’s been eons since we’ve posted an update here on this blog so I’d just like to let you know that we’re processing the payments data for this year’s campaigns as I write this. Sometime next week, we will be updating the system for your blogs’ summary of campaigns listing down the unpaid amounts for each campaign. More on this round of payments in about a week’s time!

Keep on blogging!
