How to Make Withdrawals – A Guide on Getting Paid as a Publisher

When you’re raking in the cash left and right as a prosperous PlugRush publisher, at some point you’ll need to request a withdrawal.

As a publisher with us, you’ll quickly find yourself in the following situation: You’ve gotten started with us as a publisher and you know how to make the most out of your traffic with our sweet optimization tools. As a result, your earnings are growing steadily, possibly exponentially.

The result: Your PlugRush account balance has increased to a level at which you’d like to make a withdrawal. So let’s cover how this is done. But first, let me outline our payout schedule.

Payout Schedule

The short version: We pay on a NET7 schedule.

The long version: Payouts are added to your PlugRush account weekly, on Mondays, one week after the week the earnings were generated. Once the funds are available in your account balance, you can choose to spend them on advertising campaigns or make a withdrawal request.

To know exactly when your pending earnings will be added to your available account balance, please go to the transactions page in your account and click on the blue $ amount under ‘Pending earnings:’ to get a full breakdown of when funds will be moved to your available account balance with payouts.

Important note: A PlugRush payout means the funds have been moved to your available balance. It doesn’t mean we’ll send them to one of your payment options automatically. For this to occur, you must request a withdrawal. Our accountants process all withdrawal requests within five business days.

Payment Options

When you’re ready to make a withdrawal from your PlugRush account balance, you’ll need to know which payment methods are at your disposal. There are three available:

  • Paxum
  • PayPal
