Important notes

When referencing average payment times, consider the following:

  • Travel and Ticketing advertisers have longer payment times because they usually validate transactions after the trip or event and are only then invoiced.
  • Utilities and Telco companies have longer payment times because they conduct credit checks and gather several months of direct debit information before they release funds.
  • Content sites can take longer to reach the payment thresholds.

Note: Average Payment Times are for reference only.
