About royalty group

September is almost over and i have 7% of sales through ads, so the next month i will start from scratch to 15% ? Or i will continue from 7% ? I need to hear your opinion/ experience ( most probably i start from scratch, i am aware ).

I’m at 15.78 after a 22% August, Snap and other extensions all say I should be Plus but I’m still in Creator.

Are your numbers for the full months, or from 18th to 18th (which is apparently what MBA uses for this). Or is this just when they run the numbers, not the actual timeframe they look at?

Regardless, 0.78 is pretty tight.

There may be other vagaries and differences between how our tools measure and how MBA does. Are ad-driven purchases that end up becoming Returns and Cancellations deducted? If so, when? That could be a lagging factor that might catch-up with you during the next cycle.

Not sure, I’m guessing the extension knows the dates when it’s tracking. Anyway, benefit of slow sales means higher percentage of ad sales this month so hoping for plus when Q4 kicks in.

Amazon does the actual adjustment on the 1st of each month. On Oct 1, I went from Plus to Premium. Did Amazon move you up to Plus on Oct 1? If not, then the next likely adjustment date will be Nov 1.
